Fast Shutter Speed:
Top right hand photograph. I used 1/1600 of a second of a second shutter speed and used a tripod to prevent any blurring. The camera was placed about five feet away at about my eye level. I captured an image of myself flipping my hair back upright. The camera took the photograph at the perfect time when my hair was standing straight up, looking like it's defying gravity. I cropped the image using the rule of thirds, placing myself all the way to the right and having the tips of my hair just touch the outside border.
Slow Shutter Speed:
Bottom lower left hand photograph. I used about a 1 second shutter speed. This is another image of myself swinging a multi-colored scarf around. Most of the blur in the photo is in the scarf, making it almost fake looking. I used a tripod to prevent the entire picture from blurring. Once again, the camera was placed about five feet away from me at about my eye level. The strong colors of the scarf really stand out because they are cool colors against the warm colored brick background.
