Motion Blur- Action
1) When i took this picture, i was by the umbrella patio where there was a bunch of trees and leaves on the ground that created a nice scenery.
2) Prior to getting this specific shot, i ran into problems like having to switch my position because of shadows and i also ran into the issue of timing because i could not figure out how to get the falling leaves exactly where i wanted them.
3) This shot is the best representation of this skill because it demostarates a sequence of action with the leaves being thrown up in the air, blurred, and the expression on liz's face.
4) The settings i tried before getting this particular shot were changing the f stop and the iso level. this did not always work for me that well because sometimes i would get the leaves too blurred out.
5) One thing that could be im proved in this picture is getting closer and more zoomed in to the leaves themself so that they are easy to spot when compared to the background they are placed in.
Stop Action- Running
1) When i took this picture i was still by the umbrella patio, against the fence so i did not capture the shadows in the shot and got better lighting.
2) Prior to getting this shot, i was having trouble with capturing her at the right moment and had many shots that demonstarted this.
3) This shot is the best representation of the skill because it exemplifies a stop in the action by capturing her clearly and precisely while in action.
4) The setting I tried prior to taking this shot were changing the f stop so she does not become too blurred. This sometimes did not end up working too well because it was either too high or too low.
5) One thing that could be improved in this picture is backing up more so that you actually see motion in action in a better perspective.
Motion Blur- Running
1) When i took this picture i was still at the same location, by the umbrella patios away from the shadows and a distracting background.
2) Prior to getting this shot, i was having trouble with timing. For instance, sometimes i captured the shot too early where he was just about to begin running, or too late where he was already at the finish line and did not demonstrate the skill effectively.
3) This shot is the best representation of the skill because it demonstarates the action of running, but does not make it the main focal point by blurring it a bit and instead focusing on the blue unmbrella, rather than the model.
4) The settings I tried prior to taking this shot were getting to a higher f stop level and changing the exposure. This did not work that well because at times, she appeared too be overly blurred and that ruined the shot entirely.
5) One thing that could be improved in this picture is making him look a bit more blurred so that you actually get that true sense of action occuring.
1) When i took this picture, i was in the grassy area by the umbrella patios, looking up at a tall tree with pretty colors that seemed interesting to me and worthy of being photographed.
2) One problem i faced while taking this picture was being able to capture the positiong of the leaf while in a falling action because everytime i attempted to, i was too slow to capture it altogether.
3) this [icture is the best representation of this skill bevause it captures the falling item in a unique way when put in contrast with the background that emphasizes the motion.
4) i tried using the f stop setting and slowing it down a bit so that i could clearly grasp the motion of the leaf falling in place, but i had a bit of trouble dealing witht his since i could not find the exact value that would allow me to do so.
5) i could improve zooming in on the leaf itself to make it the main focal point and blur or get rid of part of the tree that take away from the view of the leaf falling.
1) When i took this picture, i was again by the grassy area near the umbrella patio capturing Leo in a jumping action.
2) One problem i encountered was not being able to get the full effect of this demonstration because i would either click too soon or click too late.
3) this shot was the best representation of this skill because it grasps the full affect of jumping without blurring it to so you can clearly see and i utilized the rule of thirds to add a better technique.
4) the settings i tried before taking this shot was lowering the brightness and switching the shutter speed
5) one thing i would like to improve in this picture is the level at which it is taken so i could have made it seem like it was at more of a height
