This is a slow shutter speed night photograph taken at Scotts Road. The photo intends to show the motion blur effect from the busy street. The rear of vehicle lights create blur lines in red, and the front of the vehicle lights create blur lines in white. As my tripod standing spot was not in total stillness, the photo has a bit of blur from shake. The photo was taken in January 2019.

Photographer: Siew Bee Lim (Singapore) Registered
Born in 1965 in Singapore, photography was one of the old hobbies of Siew Bee Lim. Now she would like to learn it formally via Light & Composition platform as she believes it’s not too late. Since primary school she is not good in drawing; she doesn’t have artistic hand that some of her classmates have. Nonetheless, she likes reading since young, and would try to appreciate Chinese paintings. Few years after she started working as a Programmer, she took up photography as a hobby. She attended a short course which included a session in the darkroom. In those days, good photographs were dependent on good darkroom skills. It was unlikely that she spent much time in the darkroom. Hence the hobby didn’t last long then. She believes that the present learning experience has a longer way to go.
