MOTION - ROOST

When I discovered that a motion photo was one of our assignments, this is immediately what I wanted to photograph. I wasn't quite sure weather or not I wanted to use a fast or slow shutter speed. A slow shutter speed would have looked cool because the wheel would look blurry as it was spinning. However I felt that a fast shutter speed would look better because then the individual dirt particles from the roost could be seen. The main design principle that I wanted to use was economy. I avoided showing the whole dirt bike to keep things simple and also to keep the viewers focus to the roost itself.

 

These were my camera settings:

 

F-Stop: F/3.5

Exposure Time: 1/4000 sec.

ISO Speed: ISO-400

Focal Length: 22mm

Flash : None

Program: Shutter Priority

White Balance: Auto
