Assignment #4 - Motion and Depth of Field

Motion

Slow

Here, I photographed a clock and a few players in a flag football game. These images worked with a slow shutter speed because although I could have made these objects appear still, it was more interesting for me to photograph and show the way they moved.

Fast

Here, I photographed a boy practicing lacrosse and a water pipe. These images worked with a fast shutter speed because these were objects that just couldn't seem to stop moving. However, it seemed as though every time I would try to take a photo of either of them, it would just turn out blurry. I made it a goal to try and learn how to use my camera correctly in order to get them in the action. Although some parts of the image are still blurry I enjoyed learning how to get a better picture using a faster shutter speed with my camera.
