Action Blur (Ghost Shots)

I used Shutter Speed Priority to capture these shots. I wanted to have the people turn out more transparent so they looked like ghosts but I didn't quite get it as I wanted. For the top shot, we used our tripods in the Mason classroom. The room wasn't very light so we were able to set our shutter speed to about 2-3 seconds. We had Andrea walk really slow in order to absorb enough light for the photo to turn out. For Bre's shot we just had her spin on the merry-go-round at a pretty slow speed and used tripods to stabilize the shot. For the bottom shot, we sat at the end of the hall at Hotel Meade and had Andrea walk from one room across the hall to the other side. It overexposed the shot because of the light entering the hallway. I did a minor edit with a temperature filter in Photoshop.
