One tricky technique with photography that still is getting the better of me is capturing motion. Not freezing motion but showing motion within a photo. The simple part is the technical side. You use a tripod and a remote shutter release for many motion captures, but what if you don't have the equipment or time you want to setup the shot? You have to act on the fly! I used the hand rail to steady the camera and do a one-second exposure. It is not perfect but it very much accomplished the desired effect. Improvising is a skill that a good photographer must posess.
