Evaluation

the camera settings impacted these images massively, the slow shutter speed meant that the blur of the movement was captured, the aperture ensured that the image had enough light that the subject could be seen up against the dark backdrop, the high ISO of 1600 meant that the image was brighter and so all components were captured within the image. the use of a tripod meant that the photos produced wont be impacted by camera shake, the use of a snoot meant that the light wouldn't be overwhelming within the image and the light was only focused on the subject.
