Assigment 5: Stop and Blurred Motion

For the stop motion photos I used a faster shutter speed, mostly 1/125. It was hard to get clear pictures because the faster the shutter speed was, the darker the image became on my camera. I had my little cousin skip rope and my dog run around my backyard... I love this photo of my cousin playing skip rope.
For the blurred motion photos I used a slower shutter speed like 1/4, and an ISO of 100. For these photos I had my cousins play together, run around, dance... The pictures taken indoors were a bit too dark, but I had a lot of fun taking these photos. I really like this photo of my cousin running. The leaves all over the grass and the composition is really interesting.
