Photography

Since I have gotten a lot better at taking close up portrait pictures, I decided to try and work on high action photography. I looked at techniques online and found the best way to approach this is to turn the shutter speed up higher, and use flash mode. My first attempt was in my basement kicking a ball around and taking a picture of it mid air. These pictures actually turned out really good.

 Me and my friends went out to the golf course and I made an attempt to take pictures of them swinging and hitting. Most of the pictures didn't work and I think that's because I couldn't get close enough with the flash to capture the whole swing. I couldn't not use the flash because if i turned the shutter speed all the way up then the image would be to dark.

 When I first got to the golf course we started taking the pictures of them swinging there golf clubs and none of them came out the way I hoped. I was trying to set the the aperture at around F.7 to keep their clubs focused and the background blurred, this is what came out.

After these pictures were not working I decided to do what im good at and take close up pictures, using low aperture and not using flash, what came out was not to bad. Some pictures are with flash and you can see that, my personal favorites are the ones without flash.
