'Slow shutter speeds can produce interesting effects in photography. From rich colors to blurred motion to light drawing.
For my shutter speed assignment, I decided after doing the workshop in lighting, that I would like to concentrate on some sort of light drawing. I set out at night ready to capture the lights that the cars would leave behind as they sped past me, and I was pleased with the effects that they gave. All of these photographs were shot with speeds above 10s.

\These images are favorites of mine. I photographed the people in front of me using a shutter speed of 8 seconds and was intrigued to see that because they were walking, the shutter speed that I applied made them appear almost 'ghostly' and created harsh shadows. I thought that these looked really interesting.
I enjoyed the shutter speed assignment, but as mentioned on the brief, I needed to be aware that if I was going to change the shutter speed, I needed to also change one or both of the other elements (aperture and ISO) to compensate for this. I originally found this quite difficult to find the right settings to suit all three, but yet again it has been a learning curve and has made me figure things out for myself a bit more, and has made me have the knowledge of which settings work best for future reference.
