Photography to learn

Motion Blur

Motion Blur photography is the streaking of rapidly moving objects or a sequence of images. The two types of motion blur are bringing out the motion in the subject while keeping the camera still and keeping the subject in focus while blurring the background.

It happens when the image being recorded changes during a long exposure or the object is moving quickly. Setting the shudder speed to 1/2000^th of a second is a good way to start, also using a low ISO.

I would like to learn how to take motion blur pictures, I think they look different and can turn out really good if they are taken correctly.
