Digital Portrait Photography

Use Blur Creatively

SUMMARY: Consider blurring your digital photographs to express movement in a busy scene.
 
Even though a fast shutter speed may be vital in taking crisp, clean digital photographs of people, in some situations, your photos should express movement. In these cases, such as busy street scenes, consider using blur creatively to showcase your intent.

One way of doing this is to use a slower shutter speed when capturing a group of people hurriedly walking. Or, consider a slow shutter speed while panning your digital camera, keeping your subjects in focus yet letting the background blur, expressing movement.
