This week, let's talk about action! Well, more specifically, how shutter speed can be adjusted to portray action in different ways. Last week when I spent 48 hours in San Francisco I took these. In the first, I used a fast shutter speed, to FREEZE the action. See how the water is nice and crisp-ish?

In the second, I slowed the shutter speed way down, to give the camera time to capture the movement of the water. See how the blurriness of the water shows how it is moving?

What do you think? Which do you like better?

Now it's your turn! What tip can you share this week?

Rules Guidelines:

~One photo per person, and the photo must be taken by you.

~Blog about your photo and share something about how you took the photo, or how you edited it.  (Please don't skip this part, because it is so fun to be able to learn from one another).

~Add my button (below) to your blog post...(text links are ok too, but please do link back to me or I might cry)

~Link up to your blog or Flickr page, (but please link up to your specific post and not just your blog homepage...if I can't tell what post you are linking up I will have to delete the entry).  

If you have ANY questions, feel free to email me.

I can't wait to see what you come up with this week!
