The shutter speed assighnment

The shutter speed assignment was probably the funnest assignment yet.  it was very tricky because the light was not in my favor. but after adjustments and shooting over 130 something pictures i found the pictures i liked and they came out very good to me.

shutter speed pre assighnment

The overall view of this assignment should be really fun because i do enjoy action shots and i do enjoy motion shots. I believe the tricky park is having the camera catch the right frame that i want. And the other problem would be light.

Edward Muybridge

 Edward Muybridge was an English photographer important for his pioneering work in photographic studies of motion. He adopted the name Eadweard Muybridge, believing it to be the original Anglo-Saxon form of his name.

He immigrated to the United States as a young teenager but remained hidden when his large photographs of Yosemite Valley, California, made him world famous. Muybridge is known for his pioneering work on animal locomotion in 1877 and 1878, which used multiple cameras to capture motion in stop-motion photographs, and his zoopraxiscope, a device for projecting motion pictures that pre-dated the flexible perforated film strip used 

In his earlier years in San Francisco, Muybridge had become known for his landscape photography, particularly of the Yosemite Valley. He also photographed the Tlingit people in Alaska, and was commissioned by the United States Army to photograph the Modoc War in 1873. In 1874 he shot and killed Major Harry Larkyns, his wife's lover, and was acquitted in a jury trial on the grounds of justifiable homicide. He travelled for more than a year in Central America on a photographic expedition in 1875. He passed in may in 1904.
