Shutter speeds are measured in seconds, or fractions of a second. For example, a shutter speed of 1/100 means 1/100th of a second, or 0.01 seconds. This is also known as the “exposure time”, because it’s the amount of time the sensor is exposed to light.
This is a gallery of the photos I took whilst experimenting with different shutter speeds. Most photos didn’t work very well as I was still getting used to manually changing the shutter speed and other camera techniques. Some of my photos are very over exposed and also blurry, due to the fact I was using the wrong shutter speed. However some of the blurry photographs actually look quite interesting at times.
These are some of the photos which I think worked out decently well but not perfect. I like the way some parts of the objects in frame are blurry whilst others aren’t, I think it makes the photos more interesting. I also edited the last photo because I think the black and white filter suits portraits the best.
