Motion

There may be many situations we decide to photograph something in motion, to do this we can use techniques that lead to different results..

If you would like to freeze the motion of the subject along with the motion of the background, you should use a very high shutter speed. I would use a shutter speed of at least 1/300th of a second in order to make sure that you freeze everything. But there are other subjects you might find that will be moving unusually fast such as cars or thrown objects. If you would like to freeze a faster moving object you will probably need to use a shutter speed closer to 1/1000th of a second or faster

This is an example of my photos where I try to photograph a moving subject, I believe that the photo is not very successful because the image is not entirely well in focus

Slow shutter speed can be used to blur elements or subjects in a photo to transmit how fast everything is perceived from the viewer.

It is suggested that 1/100th of a second should get to the seeked. For example it is used for more artistic photos of passing motorcycles or cars as well as running animals.

This is a technique best used when the photo scene full of bright colors. 

in the second image, the photo appears almost completely blurred, this is because while I took the photo did not have a tripod that helped me to hold the camera, in these type of photos is very important that the camera remains in position for the duration of the click

Harold Edgerton

Dr. Harold E. Edgerton, professor at MIT and inventor of the electronic flash, devoted his career to recording what the unaided eye can’t see. His photographs illustrate such moments as: a bullet seen the instant it explodes through an apple, a perfect coronet formed by a milk-drop splash, and a football dented by the contact of Wes Fesler's booted foot. These images have become some of the classics of modern art and science.

Dr. Edgerton was the first to take high-speed color photographs and was a pioneer of multiflash and microsecond imagery, which he used to take detailed photographs of hummingbirds in motion, as well as the progression of athletes' movements. These amazing images have shown us things we were never able to see before, in photographs that are as remarkable for their precision as for their
