How to choose which images to edit when you have hundreds from photographing ICM?
What an absolutely captivating presentation! Thank you Ania and Charlotte.
Ok
Great presentation. Lots of inspiration to get out and take more photos!
So glad you are enjoying the ICM revisit - I love Ernst Haas’s work especially the bull fighting ICM how he managed to create that before digital I have no idea ❤
There's a few ways you can do this with film and printing. You can take 2 to 3 exposures at half or a third of the exposure time as you're moving the Camera and then. Using one sheet of photographic paper expose all three images onto the paper. One of the other way used to do multiple exposures within the Camera by clicking the release button and winding on without actually winding the film on. Again you have to reduce your exposure time to allow for multiple images on the same piece of film.
Well feel free not to watch any more xxx I wouldn’t want to waste your time. 😂
The cool thing about videos is that they are not powerpoint presentations. Normally.
Greetings from the USA. Great presentation. Enjoyed it very much!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for dropping me a message and letting me know
I loved your presentation. I've just started ICM and you have opened up unlimited possibilities. Thank you
How do you use the AE and AF lock options? If I press the AE to lock exosure then press AF to lock focus on a different area the AE becomes unlocked. Thanks.
I found this when researching for approaches and inspiration with regard to ICM photography; what a find! I've always wanted to experiment more with this technique and it provided everything I wanted. Thanks so much!
Thats brilliant, so glad you enjoyed it. I think its refreshing to see how many ways one word can be interpreted with the ICM technique and each and every one valid and unique.
@@charlottebellamycreativeph9021 Just got back from my first attempts Charlotte; mixed success, but learned a lot!
@@grandaded stick at it - Rome wasn't built in a day!
I experimented with Haas-like movement images in early 80s with horse, ballet, etc images, as well as double-exposures. Then, I put away my cameras. Recently, I decided to go back to photography, but with digital cameras. I stumbled onto your videos and have tried more types of ICM, including triple-exposures and a few 1-sec ICMs during a rainstorm. Thanks for inspiration.
Super helpful and instructive. Much appreciated and it is very motivating when feeling meh about photography.
Beautifully demonstrated and explained. Most helpful and some wonderful results. Thank you Charlotte
Great instructional overview of ICM creativity! Thanks for posting your examples!
As always, this is a very informative video. Thanks so much. I’m curious about your ISO settings, because I see that they vary quite a lot from one image to another. What is your thinking about setting and changing the ISO, along with aperture and shutter speed?
Hi Claudia - my ISO I try to keep at 50 or 100 when I am doing ICM. You may have seen higher ISO readings when I was showing the sharp images - then I don't mind too much increasing my ISO to ensure I keep a good depth of field or a fast enough shutter speed if I am not using a tripod (which I rarely do!). I tend to think cameras have such good capabilities with ISO these days, I think nothing of going to 800 and will even use 12,800 if I don't have my tripod with me and still want the shot. With ICM I tend to select a shutter speed and adjust the depth of field first, then ISO. Hope that helped. Glad you enjoyed the video,
@@charlottebellamycreativeph9021 Thank you so much, Charlotte, for the very helpful response. I recently listened to a panel discussion with 3 ICM artists, including one of whom shoots with 1000 ISO all the time, the other 2 prefer 100, which is what I have generally favored, so I was puzzled. 😁
Thank you, Charlotte for sharing your knowledge and experience so selflessly and generously.💖
You are most welcome, I am glad you enjoyed the video. Have fun with your photography
Thank you for a great tutorial and for the beautiful images that you create.
Thanks so much for your lovely comment, I really appreciate you taking the time to leave it for me.
A most excellent video!!! I’ve been shooting ICM for over a year (still lots to learn) and this was incredibly helpful to me - not only re-visiting what I already knew but I loved the details you presented on the type of movement and the shutter speed used. Your images are amazing and I now feel inspired once again to just go out and “shake, rattle & roll” 😁
Brilliant, thanks so much for letting me know - I am so glad it helps you to develop your ICM skills - enjoy the shale rattle and roll - might have to use that as a title somewhere!!!
Thank you. I grabbed a flower & followed along!
Brilliant - thanks for letting me know xx
Beautiful videos you do and your passion and inspiration is just wonderful. Very talented young lady
Thank you so much! You even enjoyed Christmas in the summer! I fiind its all about reacting to anything I find beautiful, or intriguing! Then i explore and play.

@@charlottebellamycreativeph9021 Many thanks for your replies. I will drop you my email address on your website. Thanks to your good self I've created my first ever double exposure in Photoshop. At 76 this old girl is enjoying the remote learning as I'm a bit disabled now so cannot gallivant as I used to. Take care thank you once again Pam Reynolds
I really enjjoyed this, loved seeing the different movements and shutter speeds :) My fave images were the ones you called 'the dark woods'...loved them and the contrast they brought.
Thanks so much! 😊 I'm glad you enjoyed seeing the process and the end results.
Hi Charlotte. What a spectacular walk through bluebell woodlands. You've shown many different images with slightly different exposure times and movements that in just 30mins of your video I've learned so much about the intricacies of ICM and this has given my so many ideas for adopting & trying out for myself. I think for me I really like the images created around the 1 second exposure so 8862 & 8890 were images I really liked, and again you've demonstrated that different movements can result in totally different images, some I loved and others not so much, an important lesson indeed. I thought the long exposure image (8845) was a really interesting experiment and I really liked the result that you've achieved so something else to experiment with. The images I really liked (apart from most of those you showed!!) were 9309 as I think it is simply stunning and a beautiful image, it hasn't lost its sense of place or focus but the ICM lifts the resulting image really well. I also really like the close-up flower images ( love flower photography) particularly 9188 which I thought was stunning and your ICM movement gave a painterly affect with the small circular movement. I really like 8909 as a flower image, it's beautiful!! and, as an experiment, would really like to see this as a combined image with 8912 as a texture and blended in Photoshop. I'm wondering if you have ever considered experiment with portrait mode particularly with the close-up flower images so that the flowers are shown from their roots and the trees in the background are more defined - just a thought? Thank-You for this video🙏 , it has given me so many ideas to think about and experiment with in my image making. Cheers, Stu 🤓
Stu, thank you so much for a wonderful reply to my video. Its blown me away how much you have taken from what I presented to you. Part of learning ICM is also learning what YOU like. Anyone can teach what they do, but ICM is all about personal interpretation. I often get asked what makes a bad or good ICM image and really there is not a definitive answer - because if you love what you create, that is the most important thing. That awareness will come with time when you make an image and look at the back of the camera with excitement - that should tell you what you like. Build on this and you will also find your own style. 8 years ago I learned ICM 'bar code' style - over time i have finessed that towards what i like personally in my images, not what i think it necessarily should be. I thought your lovely long thought out comment deserved a thoughtful answer as i really appreciate you taking the time to make it.

@@charlottebellamycreativeph9021 Thank you Charlotte for your considered reply. I mentioned a while back that I follow Kim Grant and through her teachings & philosophy, I have learnt to be more consider and intentional in my own creation of images, so combining this with observing your ICM skills and learning from your teachings, this will hopefully result in me being able to create ICM images that reflect my intentions and result in images that I really like, which it's all about really isn't it. 😊
Thank you for including your hands in the shot - it's a great help to see the movements you make! After all, when is a jiggle actually a joggle?! Also, did you leave the ISO on auto?
Liz you make an excellent point about my hands! Glad they were useful, so many times I teach people ask me to 'actually show' what i am doing with the camera as its all well to try and explain it, but an example paints a thousand words. Most people are amazed how little movement i actually make for my ICM images. Thanks for watching this vid, hope you enjoy others.
Hi Liz, sorry just saw your comment about auto - no I always use manual auto, and have it set as low as possible. On my Nikon Z6II that is 50.

Glad you enjoyed it Thanks Morina. Its been a long time coming getting to those blubells - it was only the hail storm and changing weather that dragged me out of the woods after 4 hours!
Thanks Charlotte. I really enjoyed this video. You inspire me to get out there and shoot more ICM. Beautiful images!
Thank you so much - to inspire is my greatest wish. Have a lovely day and enjoy your ICM.

Thank you so much for your videos, they are really inspirational and very helpful to an oldie like me. I especially love trying out the ICM photography following your guidelines. Also I've learnt more Lightroom techniques than ever before and love it so much now. Thank you once again x
Thanks so much for your lovely comment, so glad the tutorials are useful. I hope you continue to enjoy them Charlie
Thanks Charlotte 👍- I'm learning more about ICM everyday. I wouldn't have thought of combining multiple images in this way, but the affect is stunning, at least they are in your images 😀 I have a question for you. When you start to blend the 2nd batch of images (around 12mins) you say the combination is "still flat". I'm just wondering what you mean by this? Thanks... Stu 🤓
Hi Stu - 'flat' is a feeling of how much depth the image has when you look at it. Do you feel carried through the image, or do you feel that it is 2 dimensional and that you are looking at something rather than into it. Hope that helps. I love to encourage the viewer into my images and ensuring that the light is variable throughout the image can help with this.
@@charlottebellamycreativeph9021 or the clarification - I now understand 🙂
Interesting - thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it x
Thanks for sharing Charlie. What great images. The colours are amazing. 💕🤓
I was just amazed to see that colour in the spring when it was just from the leaves not blossom - a definite bonus for me.
Hi Charlotte. Thank you Charlotte for such wonderful tutorial!! I discovered your ICM art & techniques through Kim Grant a while back, and watching your videos and admiring your images has inspired me to experiment with creating my own ICM images. Being able to listen to & learn about your ICM journey and the techniques you use is proving to be a real inspiration for me and I am learning so much - thank-you. I'm still at the beginning of my ICM journey but last week whilst at a rocky beach on the south coast of Wellington, NZ I just wasn't inspired by the seascape scenes so I experimented with ICM and the rocky foreshore. The images I created definitely divided opinion among my friends, some like them others not so much but I'm okay with that. However one friend living in the states likes a couple of my images so much he wants to hang prints up in their house - amazing!! Once again thank-you 🙏 Stu H 😎
Stu, thank you sooooo much for your lovely comment. I always say if I can help and inspire just one person I am delighted and happy. This makes me very happy! LOL. Dividing opinion is great - it means you are creating images that make people think and question. How wonderful someone wants to hang your work in their house. ICM is the most wonderful creative technique you can make with your camera. I love Kim's work and follow her regular postings, her ethos towards photography is super. I hope you continue to enjoy the videos I post - they are a bit sporadic, but do eventually happen! There will be one on bluebells soon.
@@charlottebellamycreativeph9021 Thank-You for your lovely reply. Through listening to Kim I've learnt to be more considered and thoughtful about my image creation so learning about how you approach ICM is building on my being more mindful of the scenery I'm in and the images I want to create. You've already taught me one important lesson in that your ICM images will enhance the scenery or location your in and not mask totally where are are!! Anyway I love creating images of bluebells they are so photogenic so will look forward to learning more, this will help when our bluebells flower in our springtime in August/September here in NZ.
Good morning excellent tutorial, very creative thanks for sharing @+
Thanks so much for your comment, I am glad you enjoyed it.
Great video - Can’t wait to try this technique-thx for sharing❤️
So glad you enjoyed it, thanks for the comment. Its a process I use a lot to balance back ICM images that have lost a little of what I originally saw in the scene.
Great video! Just one thing, how do you manage to keep the tulip in the focus area when you click the shutter button ,and know exactly in which direction to move the camera in order to get two or three tulips? I've noticed that in your live view mode you have a circle, or focus ring. I'm not aware that my nikon d5300 has this feature. Any tips please?
Hi, thanks for your comment. I use either back button focus with auto focus or I move the focus point around the scene depending on where I want the focus with manual focus. I'm afraid I can't remember which one in this. With regards to where to move the camera - the direction is a personal choice, but if I want the tulips to appear separate I make sure I give them some space where I want to move too initially. To get 2 tulips, you need to hold the camera still twice, to get 3 you need 3 times and so on. I hope that helps?
@@charlottebellamycreativeph9021 Thank you Charlotte, I'm going to try with back button focus with auto focus and compare it to manual focus. Then I'll stick with the easier of the two! 😅 I'll see how it goes, I guess the moving part is trial and error. I'll have your video on when practising. Have a great day!
Very informative. I've done some ICM in the past with only small success. I'm so excited now to play with different ICM techniques. Thanks!
Super thanks for your comment, glad it helped your understanding - have fun.
Great Video, one of the most detailed ICM videos !
Thank you so much for such a lovely comment, much appreciated.
Lovely, you have inspired me to try them on wildlife ( birds and small ambhibians maybe to begin with)
Have fun, I love my bird ICM - not tried amphibians though!
Absolutely LOVE your "debunking the myths" slide 🤣
Thanks Colin - I'd love to do a recording just about myths in general! LOL Might make many enemies though!
Thanks, Charlotte. Very detailed and straight to the point <3
Thanks glad you enjoyed it.
Amazing work. One interesting thing about ICM on streets is that people are not identified anymore!
I know its great - so if anyone ever questions you, show them the back of the camera and they will never have an issue with it!
nice...
Thank you!
Brilliant - so helpful and has given me new ideas for my own photography 😊
Thanks for the comment, glad it was useful. Enjoy your photography.
Fascinating, Charlotte. Many thanks. I will give ICM a proper go now!
Great, I hope you enjoy it.
Really enjoyed this presentation, Charlie. I have a question about the photos you took with the iPhone app, near the end of your presentation. I am wondering how you get such vibrant colours when using your phone? I find mine to be quite muted, lacking contrast and kind of dull. I’ve tried changing up various settings in the apps but I’m still not getting rich colours like you just showed. Thanks a lot!
I think it probably has to do with starting with a contrsating image - so even if its just browns there are normally creams in there to contrast to. I also use light a lot so that the colours pop out against the other elements. Hope that helps - otherwise no secret!
Excellent, thank you Charlie! You have reinspired me to get back into ICM.
BRILLIANT - There are so many possibilities to explore
Since Covid lockdown I've rather lost my photgraphy mojo. You've given it back to me. Thank you for this inspirational video.
Oh thats so good to hear, glad it helped in some way. Charlie
Thanks for the solid explanations and the amount of interesting examples !
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for taking the time to leave me a comment and let me know. Charlie
This was fantastic Charlotte - I have dabbled with ICM but wasn't always what I was trying to do. This has given me so much information and areas to focus on. I primarily take wildlife images - your ones of the geese were brilliant!
Thanks for such an enthusiastic response - I have loved making the geese images, its been a long learning curve but when it all builds and you see what you want in the back of the camera it is very satisfying. Enjoy. Charlie
Thank you Charlotte for such wonderful tutorial. I wonder if you have played attempting to simulate ICM in your post processing workflow, starting with a "normal" image. Do you have any comments about that? Thank you.
Thanks so much for your comment. Yes I have experimented with this. It is good to know how to do it, and in one project I was 'missing' an image to complete the set and made it in this way to compliment the other 'real' ICM images. I love the images where there is one small elemsnt still sharp and the rest has been manipulated, although I tend to do this via multiple exposure now. Just be aware that creating ICMs in PS - the edges of the canvas always show a very sharp line detail which is a give away to a judge or anyone else looking at the image that it has been created in post production.
@@charlottebellamycreativeph9021 Thank you for your kind reply and comments, Charlotte. Very insightful indeed. Thank you.
