Assignment 3: Shutter Speed

Moving Water Shutter Speeds Set 1:

Panning Set 2:

Reflection:

     I found this shoot extremely fun, especially set 2 when I learned how to pan. Set 1 was simple, but if it weren’t for the last assignment (2) making me comfortable with my camera, I would have found set 1 to be complicated. I put a delay on my shots to avoid a blur from my camera shaking. Even on a tripod, I noticed a shake when shooting at low shutter speeds. I also learned how to change the ISO on my Nikon! Set 2 is was challenging to start, but after time it became easy. I figured out that the twist at 45 degrees isn’t what blurred the background, but focusing and moving with your subject at their pace over time created the cool panned shots. Once I learned that, it became pretty simple.
