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.
Slow Shutter Speed Example
Nikon D7000
18-200 VRII Lens
105mm
F/36
1.0’S
ISO 100
