Shutter Speed


Artificial Fast Shutter Speed - This photograph shows fast shutter speed in artificial light because it captures a frozen movement of the lights on the wheels. The F-Stop # was 3.5 and the ISO setting was 100. The focal point of this photo are the lights, this photo is capturing a light painting frozen movement. The camera was stationary while taking this photograph. 

Artificial Slow Shutter Speed - This photograph captures slow shutter speed in artificial light because this captures the lights on the wheels moving. The F-Stop # was 8 and the ISO was 100. The focal point of this photo are the lights spinning on the wheel. The camera was stationary while taking this photograph. There is no blur in the background or in the focal point of this photo but it also is not capturing a frozen movement, it's capturing a moving object.

Natural Fast Shutter Speed - This photograph shows fast shutter speed in natural light because it's capturing the person while she's frozen. The F-Stop # was 4.5 and the ISO was 200. The focal point of this photo was the person. The camera was stationary while taking this photograph. 

Natural Slow Shutter Speed - This photograph captures slow shutter speed in natural light because it shows the moving person and she's faded. The F-Stop # was 29 and the ISO was 200. The focal point of this photo is the light stand in the middle ground of this photo. The camera was stationary while taking this photo.

Natural Fast Panning Shot - This photo shows a fast panning shot in natural light because it captures the hand moving with the camera while everything is not moving causing the background to blur and the hand looking as if it is moving fast because it is frozen. The F-Stop # was 6.3 and the ISO was 200. The focal point of this photo is the hand moving. The camera was not stationary while taking this photo because the background is blurry.

Natural Slow Panning Shot - This photograph shows a slow panning shot in natural light because it shows a blurry movement throughout the photo. This captures a moving hand with the moving camera. Though the camera and the hand were moving, they were not moving at the same time. The F-Stop # was 22 and the ISO was 200. The focal point of this photo is the hand. The camera was not stationary when taking this picture.

Fast Shutter Speed - This shows fast shutter speed because the photographer is capturing the coffee and the milk jumping out from the coffee. I think the photographer's camera was stationary because it doesn't show movement from the photographer/camera and the background does not seem to be blurry. I think the photographer used 800 for their ISO setting. 

Slow Shutter Speed - This photo shows slow shutter speed because the photographer is capturing the turtle moving and making the turtle the focal point. I think the photographer's camera was stationary because the background is not blurry. I think the photographer used 400 to 800 as their ISO setting.

Panning Shot -  This photo shows a panning shot because it captures a moving train and a blurry background. The photographer's camera was not stationary, it was moving with the train. I think the photographer's ISO setting was 800 to 1600. I think the photographer used fast shutter speed to capture this photo.

  1. Research
    Great Shutter Speed research included in your Visual Journal Blog. For each entry you correctly answered the required questions. Citations (photographer’s name and URL address) were appropriately provided for all entries.

    Vocabulary
    Overall, you consistently and correctly utilized the unit vocabulary taught during the class and documented in your assignment PDF on Moodle. Correctly utilizing new vocabulary is a very strong characteristic of a maturing artistic learner. Well done.

    Camera Skills and Techniques
    You did a great job at controlling your Shutter Speed setting to capture frozen movement with a fast shutter speed and blurred movement with a slower shutter speed. Each pair has a clearly defined Focal Point. For your three fast Shutter Speed photographs, all grounds are in clear focus and the movement is frozen. For your three slow Shutter Speed photographs, you correctly capture blurred movement with a stationary camera for Artificial and Natural Light pairs as well with a moving camera for your Panning pair.

    Software Skills and Techniques
    When looking at your pairs, it is clear you can properly utilize Lightroom and Photoshop to create a pair of photographs with very similar Exposure Value (brightness, contrast, and color).

    Preliminary Ideas from Research
    Fantastic use of your researched to better your understanding of the unit. You took the step to becoming a stronger photographer because you are using what others have accomplished to enhance your understanding. You properly included the F-Stop, and ISO for each of your photographs. But you did not record the Shutter Speed for your photographs. You properly answered the required questions for your experimentation photograph pairs.
