Unintentional Camera Movement.

Taken while I was running with a friend through a tunnel on Hawk Hill. As we ran, my finger accidentally hit the shutter button and I ended up with a 1/6 of a second snap of Nicole and the tunnel. A happy accident.

But that led to a tough question: how should I process the resulting photo? Post-processing involves many choices and Lightroom has so many buttons... so I pushed them all, lol.

Anyway, I ended up with four final candidates and I really like them all, for different reasons. My favorites are the first and the last.

Very successful, there's movement with a nice atmosphere. I tried to capture this atmosphere myself, I had a lot of rubbish, but I noticed that it worked much better in the evening with the city lights. 👍👍👍

@smartmedj Trying to do this intentionally would certainly require experimentation and have a high failure rate... Especially without a tripod. I know because that's what I was doing, with a handheld camera, last Wednesday inside a subway tunnel.
