I have started to take some local photography classes at my local community center. I first class was on shutter speed. The key is to learn how shutter speed work. What I found, is that I needed to adjust my ISO settings to get the shutter speed I wanted. These are my photos from this class. Basic stuff, but we all can learn from this.

Este fim de semana nas águas da Baía de Guanabara, realiza-se pela primeira vez no Brasil uma prova dos barcos de alta velocidade Class1. O palco está montado na Praia do Flamengo, com a esperança que haja um milhão de espectadores.
Hoje foi o dia dos treinos livres do Class 1, a "Fórmula 1 de barcos", na Baía de Guanabara. Os barcos podem alcançar uma velocidade de 270km/h o que faz com que literalmente voam, como pode ver na foto.

Over the weekend in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil hosts, for the first time, a stage of the Class 1 power boat championships. The two-man boats powered by two 900hp engines can reach speeds of over 270km/h, so it's no surprise that Class 1 is known as the "Formula 1 of Power Boats". As you can see from the photo, the boats literally take off!
In the photo, the "Welmax 90" of the Norwegian Welmax Offshore Racing team.
