The process of getting the photos was a climb, learning what shutter speed works around the different parts of the campus, for both high and low speeds, as you have to play with the camera stops to achieve the desired picture. Once you learn a general feel for the shutter speeds for whatever shot you’re trying to capture and where you are, taking photos becomes more enjoyable and rewarding. One aspect of the project was creativity, and for the shots, I was surprised at how simple the concepts turned out, whether it be shooting a water faucet at a high shutter speed and capturing the stream, or taking a picture of a golf cart driving past at a low shutter speed. I didn’t get any tricks down, but shooting at high shutter speeds is cool to me as the shots you take can freeze time and give perspective on events unseen by the eye, being crazy to see something that happens quickly in a sharp image. Another difficulty in this first project was with the low shutter speed shots and stabilizing yourself while taking shots. While taking photos of motion blur, several were unfocused or hard to see, mostly coming from me shaking or not being stable, having to lean against something or take a deep breath to freeze my body.
