The setting on the camera which controls how motion is captured is __100________.
The longest the Nikon D3300’s shutter stays open is__1__.
The shortest duration the Nikon D3300’s shutter stays open is __1/30____.
When we used a ___1______ shutter speed, we had to use a tripod because no one can possibly hold a camera steady for that length of time without moving the camera.
In the situation where we intentionally wanted to use a slow shutter speed, we had to use an ISO of _100__ and the smallest aperture of f22 and even higher. This forced the camera to allow a shutter speed of at least 1 second. The longer shutter speed allowed us to convey G_ OST images which was an interesting effect especially when combined with a person who is standing very still in the picture. My favorite picture from that situation is …(Insert the picture) Include the exposure information with the picture example ISO 100 f22 2 seconds. If we want to get in the picture as well, we can set the camera to a delay by using the __Dial________
Movement of the camera isn’t always a bad thing like the example of panning. In the picture where we photographed someone riding a bicycle to convey motion, we used a shutter speed of __1__ and an aperture of__55__ and the ISO was __100__. My favorite picture from this assignment is shown (on the left or right) (Insert your picture in the blog post)

On the other extreme end of shortest duration that the camera shutter stays open, we used _1/200___high shutter speeds or fractions of a second. In the water balloon bursting picture, we used ISO_1600__ aperture of F_22__ and shutter speed of ___40___
To capture splashing water, we also used high shutter speeds. Here are my favorite pictures of high shutter speeds. (Insert your own pictures in the blog post)
