Winning Photo -
@alicenellis has selected me to host the next challenge.
Do some of the camera settings intimidate you? Do you want to learn how to develop your photography skills and learn how to use your camera effectively without always going back to the "auto" function? These challenges are for you!
This week’s challenge is: Freezing Motion
Explanation: Things are moving around us all the time, it is neat to think that we can capture a moment in time. So that brings me to the new camera setting challenge, Freezing Motion by means of your shutter speed.
Your task is to capture in sharp focus a moving subject. To freeze motion effectively you must use a fast shutter speed. Example: If a subject is parallel to you like a running dog or a running tap, it requires a shutter speed of at least 1/500 or 1/1000 of a second.
Additional Tips: When you want to freeze any moving subject, you need to consider 3 factors: the distance between you and the subject, the direction in which the subject is moving, and your lens choice. The closer you are to the action the faster the shutter speed.
Experienced photographers who are knowledgeable in this particular setting are encouraged to offer "kind and constructive" suggestions on the posted entries. Those entering this challenge want to learn and improve.
This challenge starts Monday April 14th, 2014 and ends Wednesday April 23, 2014 12:00pm Central Standard Time. All photos must be taken during these dates to be considered. Enter as many as you would like- the idea is to practice and learn. TAG your photo CSC14-07 AND post your picture in this thread to receive feedback from other experienced photographers specific to this challenge.
Voting will take place on Saturday April 26, 2014 (and remain open 24 hours), and the winner will be announced Monday April 28, 2014. The winner of the challenge will select an experienced photographer to host a new challenge. It is the winner’s option on who they want to host the next challenge; it may be someone they follow whose work they admire, or someone who is active offering suggestions on previous CSC challenges. The winner may also select an experienced photographer for the list of photographers who have agreed to host future challenges as another option. Here is the link to that list: http://365project.org/archaeofrog/365/2013-12-18
Expect to receive constructive suggestions on how to improve your skills.

I am going to try this one! I am brand-new to high-end cameras, and I'm ready to take my photography to a new level. So I plan to try to capture some images at my grandson's T-ball game. I will read up on this technique and try it this week. Thanks for inspiring me!
Hi Paul the kind of camera will not be a factor.
So please give it a try.
and alerting a new 365-er .....
