The ‘Seascapes’ are an ongoing series of ‘Travelling Still’ photographs Rob Carter has worked on since the mid-2000s. The series is all about creating the feeling of movement within a still image. They stretch the 'moment' both literally — in that the camera shutter is held open — and visually — as the details of the subject blur out horizontally.
All the photographs have been shot using a revolving-lens camera — the blurring movement is created ‘in camera’ direct to film, with no digital intervention — and are subsequently printed directly from the original transparency onto Cibachrome paper.
