One of the most crucial elements of photography is impacting the exposure and movement within an image using shutter speed. The following blog post explores the creative possibilities available when affecting shutter speed. Check out the photos below to see an example of the potential differences.
Slow Shutter Speed
The first example image demonstrates how a slow shutter speed can drastically change the look of an image. The captured photo shows a yellow caution sign not moving, but there are signs of movement from people walking behind. The crisp detail alongside the motion blur effects shows the impact of how a slower shutter speed can alter perspective.
Fast Shutter Speed
Fast shutter speeds freeze action. This image has captured Leo levitating in the air, in a split second moment. The ability to take a photo of such a brief moment means that there is potential to take images of finer details. In the world of sport, a lot of action can happen in a minimal amount of time. It is incredibly important to be able to catch these moments that only happen once.
