Caught in the Act

Today we are going to look at freezing the action in a scene using a high shutter speed. Follow the steps below to complete this assignment:

1. Find a partner.
2. Come up with a plan in which you can take a picture of something moving at a high rate of speed, and freeze the action (such as throwing a ball, running, jumping, flying, etc.).
3. Scrap your first plan, and then come of with a new plan that is better, more fun, and more exciting.
4. Grab a camera and a memory card.
5. Put your camera in shutter speed priority mode.
6. Talk to Mr. Shellabarger about your plan.
7. Go to somewhere bright (this will help you use higher shutter speeds).
8. Take your totally awesome picture.
9. Come back and post your picture on your blog.
10. Prepare to share your experience with the class in a short presentation of your blog.

Good Luck!
