These first photos were taken last spring. I was not able to get out and take as many photos as I would have liked this past week, due to getting over a cold. But these were taken at my high school softball team’s game last spring, and I was practicing trying to capture them in action. Looking back at these photos now, I see that I could have focused on choosing the shutter speed I wanted myself, and not just relying on the “Sport” mode on the camera.
I took these next photos of a glass full of water and had my friend drop objects into the water to create a splash. It was difficult to be able to capture the water in the air and have the camera focus on it correctly.
These last photos did not turn out as well as I had hoped. I put a ball of string lights on the ground and set my camera to a long shutter speed, and as the camera was taking the photo I zoomed my lens out to try to create a streaking effect.
