Project: June 2008: Stopping Motion

Photo.net Monthly Project; created June 2008

Last month's "Slow Shutter" project went so well that I thought we would go the other direction this month and do a "Stopping Motion" project.

One of the most wonderful aspects of photography is that we can freeze for eternity a moment that would have otherwise passed in the blink of an eye. Giving us insight into the world we never otherwise would get to see. Try going out and using a high shutter speed (or electronic flash) to stop motion completely. Use your camera to show the world something it never could have seen otherwise.

This month, try going out with the plan to shoot a series of motion stopping images images. Then choose one image and submit it to the monthly project and show everyone what you came up with. Need instructions for how to submit to monthly projects? Take a look right here.
