Shutter Speed

Shutter Speed is the amount of time the camera shutter is open for, another term for it would be exposure time. By changing the shutter speed on your camera higher or lower you will affect how long the image is exposed for. To make sure your image is exposed properly you have to balance the shutter speed with your aperture and ISO settings, if you don't balance all three your image will either be over or under exposed.

We had a go at changing the shutter speed to a long exposure and using the lights from our phones to create images with the light. This is an example of some of the photos I took:

This was the only image that turned out well, I took a photo of Georgia making a shape of a love heart on a slow shutter speed of 5 seconds.

This is an example of some of the photos that I took with a fast shutter speed to capture Georgia jumping without any blurring.
