The last month or so in Paris I was really getting into motion blur. I took a lot of pictures like the one of the stairs at the Louvre and down in the metro with an long exposure in black and white. I love the kind of "ghosting" you get when you let the lens stay open a long time and people pass in front of the lens. Then too there is the accidental quality of not quite knowing what will happen with each shot and letting an element of randomness enter into the work.
