If anyone is confused by what this magazine is about, like I was, you can find a free issue here https://www.icmphotomag.com/free-sample-issue

Looks like an interesting concept!

In intentional camera movement (ICM), a camera is moved during the exposure for a creative or artistic effect. This causes the image points to move across the recording medium, producing an apparent streaking in the resulting image.

Ahhh so this is different from camera movements [1] used in large format photography to manipulate the focal plane and achieve various effects. These movements take place only before the exposure, not during.

Fairly common, also.

Consider panning, in sports photography, where you track a player in a field while the background blurs from side to side. Also in motor sports, some nature photography, or any time a photographer wants a motion effect, perhaps in street photography, or even snapshots at family events.

Edit: similar effect in travel photos, where someone shoots from a moving vehicle - far background might look fairly stable, near background (cyclists & vehicles) blur, people in your vehicle might be stable, depending on shutter speed and how much bouncing on the road.

One pretty easy (I didn't know the name at that time) example is, a still person in front of a moving train (at station for example). E.g. https://www.instagram.com/p/BPpyrCMhwN_/?igshid=NmE0MzVhZDY=

Though this is moving background, not moving camera.

I was definitely confused! Their Instagram was also helpful for me to understand what kinds of images they had in mind: https://www.instagram.com/icmphotomag/

The founder's personal site (https://stephjohnphoto.com) also has (many) examples of ICMP.

Yeah, I found that site much more interesting than the cover of the latest issue. My first thought was, “this looks terrible,” but after seeing her site, I quite like it.

This is neat. I accidentally took an image like this and used it as wallpaper for a while, but never considered trying to take more intentionally. Here's mine: https://photos.app.goo.gl/71Rdc5jKFd1FSS6A6
