Whirlpools: 2012-2013. Looking out the window while in transit is something we all do, picking from the ever changing scene whatever it is that peaks our interest. We follow it until our eyes strain or at least until something else that is more interesting shows up and we skip ahead, making a sweeping motion from the front to the back of the window. I see it as a paddling motion, as though you were on a boat, propelling yourself forward along a perpetually flowing visual narrative, and as you paddle in this visual sea, you leave whirlpools behind. In the whirl or storm is the stuff you never managed to focus on and in the eye is your peak interest . In this series I try to replicate that particular experience and at the same time give myself a second chance to examine a scene. This is a collection of My peak interests.

About the Technique: Panning is a technique in photography that uses a slow shutter speed while moving your camera along to create motion blur in the background. Usually one uses this technique when stationary while the subject is moving. In this series i have reversed this technique to photograph subjects that have little to no movement while i am in a moving vehicle. This reverse method is rare in the photography world and quite difficult because you have to take into account the speed of the vehicle. Also, most of the roads in Kenya are uneven and full of pot holes and this presents a special challenge as well.
