As a bit of a fun teaser before I complete my main photography editing, I have a few cinemagraphs of the Steampunk Yule Ball for you to enjoy. Firstly, BB Blackdog doing an acoustic set, then a few of The Mysterious Freakshow.
I was testing creating cinemagraphs at Saturday night’s gig, and I discovered that if there’s too much movement on the stage, cinemagraphs don’t really work – they come out looking like little videos, which they’re not (see here for more info on cinemagraphs). They’re also very large and not great quality images, of course, but for a bit of fun they bring some life into some photos.
I hope you enjoy, and keep an eye out for the full photo gallery from the Yule Ball in the coming days.
