Harris shutter (cannon fire 3/3)

View On Black

 

The Harris shutter effect combines different color layers from three successive shots to give colored ghosts to moving elements. One of these frames can be seen here as a normal image.

 

Hampton's battery fires at Portstown park.

The expanding cloud of smoke gives an interesting effect. Movement of the crew and branches lends additional artifacts. I tried this hand-held, and had to do a lot of work to get frames this close to registry. (One layer was severely rotated) If you are inspired to give it a try, use a tripod.
