SHUTTER SPEEDS

Shutter speed can be manually changed on a camera. If the shutter speed is fast it can help to make a crisp and clear still image, freezing the action completely. Similarly If the shutter speed is slow, it can create motion blur emphasizing the fact that they are moving. This would only be effective if the background was still and it was just the moving image that was blurred.
I practiced using different shutter speeds on Belinda.

In this photo, Belinda threw leaves in the air; most of the leaves are still but a few are blurred at the edges. Belinda's hands are blurred as they were moving at a fast when the shot was taken. I think is was taken at about 1/100 of a second.

I then got Belinda to run along a path and I took photos of her with a slow and fast shutter speed. This was a clearer photo so it was taken at a faster shutter speed of about 1/300 of a second.

This is with a ....shutter speed, giving the edges of her frame a blurred touch, making the photo look more alive; as if she is moving fast. his was taken a about 1/50 of a second

Here I had a slightly slower shut speed of 1/200 of a second than on the crisper, clearer one above because she wasn't moving as fast as she was running towards the camera., and this would be t case wit the picture below, as well.
