Apr 7 - F for Freeze #AtoZChallenge

F for freeze, freeze time or freeze motion. Shutter speed of the exposure triangle is manipulated to freeze motion. Shutter speed of 1/500 or faster is recommended. Faster the shutter speed, better the motion freeze. Ideally, frozen motion is more effective when the background is blurred. I took numerous photos but could not get blurred background. The setting for the above picture are shutter speed 1/1000 sec, aperture f-1.8 and ISO 1000.

Sifting flour or flour rain is another example freeze, an archived picture from few years ago.
