SHUTTER SPEEDS
This term we are going to experiment with shutter speeds. Lots of artists use a slow/long shutter speed to capture movement within an image. you will need to change the shutter speed using the wheel on top of the camera.You will need to use a tripod when taking these images as your hand shake will effect the image.
