Shutter Priority Mode

Do Now:
Find a second picture taken by a famous "master" photographer that intrigues you. This photographer should have had his or her work shown in a gallery or museum. It can be a recent photographer or one from the past. In your journal create a new entry that includes: the photograph you chose, a description of the photograph, and some background information about the photographer. Be sure to include the site where you found the photograph.


In Class Assignment:
Together we will be discussing Shutter Speed. Please refer to the notes I posted from last class to become more familiar with shutter speed. Your assignment is to work with a partner and practice setting and using Shutter Priority mode. Similarly to what we did with AP mode, you will be taking practice pictures, uploading to a Google Doc, and then posting your results to classroom.
