I tend to play around with shutter speed a lot. It gives you the ability to change how you want your picture to be portrayed, whether or not it is clear or slightly blurry or completely blurry.
"Action may be captured in very sharp detail, blurred to convey a sense of motion, or even reduced to an abstract smear of colors."
Anyone is able to change whether or not they want to portray movement in their picture.
"The precise effect you use is going to be a technical and/or creative decision, but the mode of choice is Shutter priority: you select the shutter speed and the camera will set a suitable aperture."
In this first picture, I had a slower shutter speed than I needed to have. It created a blur among the car lights. This was a creative decision from myself.
In a different photo, I chose the "correct" shutter speed, which ensures a clear photo, with the right shutter speed and aperture.
This picture was taken in the same car, within a couple of minutes of the picture above that was taken. I had simply chosen a different shutter speed, along with aperture, to make my picture clear as well has to bring a different mood to this picture.
Thank you for viewing my blogpost! If you had to choose between taking only motion photos or clear photos, which would it be?
Hi Mikal! I liked how you explained the effect that shutter speed can have on photographs! I would choose to only take clear photos because I usually find what's in the photo very intriguing. However, water motion pictures can look very pretty in an artistic perspective! Which one would you choose?
ReplyDeleteHey Mikal. I really liked the quotes you used from the book. I would have to go with taking only clear pictures because I like a cleaner and more crisp look to my photos. But I do think that blurred photos can be great sometimes! My book also touches on shutter speed, and a found that great time to use a slow one, would be at night time to get more light into the lens, and especially for the night sky. Those always come out beautifully!
