Blurred Motion
The technique to show a blur to the motion is to have a low shutter speed, and keep a low ISO for a crisp photo. In this photo our goal was to show Mary in focus, while she is using the hula hoop which is moving but looks kind of blurred.
On this assignment we took pictures using manual mode in our camera around our school. We had to play around with the f-stop, shutter speed and ISO for it to look perfect. I had to change the ISO every time we were at a different place that has a different atmosphere for a better looking picture. I also had to change the shutter speed from places with darker and lighter area for the picture to have the best lighting. It was difficult at the beginning when I had no idea about what I was doing, but at the end I finally learned the basics and can work with the manual mode setting.
We took pictures outside around the Sargent Park School, and in our outdoor classroom. It was broad daylight when we went, and it was getting colder every time we went outside. All the pictures I took was to show how winter is soon to come as it had started snowing a little early this year. That means our beautiful season fall is soon going to end.
