Stop motion photography on a playground toyBlurred Motion Photography
f/20 – 1/8 sec – ISO 100 – Focal Length 35 mm

This is part of a playground “ride.”  A child would stand on this disk and hold on to two handles at the top of the orange pole and spin.  By using a slower shutter speed for this image, 1/8 second, I was able to get the effect of blurred motion.  This is something you can do with almost any subject that is in motion either within your frame or moving across your frame.  The slower the shutter speed the more blurred the subject will be giving an indication of motion in the photograph.
