Intentional camera movement (ICM) is a popular artistic technique that you’ll I see in photo competitions and camera clubs, where the camera is deliberately moved during the exposure. If you fancy the idea of making some ICM images, but without the effort of going somewhere to do it, you can create a convincing replica in Affinity Photo 2. The best kind of images for this are ones with distinctive colours or shapes that will stand out after the photo is blurred. And because it’s done in software, you can tweak the result for a greater or lesser effect. It’s a quick and simple project for you to try.
