Fast Shutter Speeds
Image by Stephan Drescher; found on flickr.com
The photographer of this picture used a fast shutter speed to capture the shattering of the light bulb as it fell. When using a fast shutter speed there are many difficulties a photographer must overcome to produce the desired effect, such as not having enough light as well as not having the proper aperture (a wide one, preferably), and also having a high ISO.
The depth of field was affected in this image to be relatively shallow, as all the details and pieces of the bulb must be captured. In addition, this image conveys the feeling of motion because of all the different angles the pieces are going, the different sizes of the pieces, and the different shadings and lightings on each individual piece. Everyone has encountered something falling and shattering and so that experience also aids the photographer in conveying motion in this image.
