A few weeks ago we did a "Stop the Action" challenge. This challenge is the opposite - using a slow shutter speed to create movement. The technique is frequently seen as "velvet water" but includes other photographic techniques such as light trails. If you have iPhone 6S or later you have the ability to produce long exposure "velvet" motion (I'll demonstrate during the challenge for those who may not be aware of the feature). As always, its a combination of ISO, aperture, and shutter speed that produces the effect. Tripods work best for shutter speeds longer than 1/60 (some can do 1/30). Bracing yourself and or the camera against a stable surface can sometimes be sufficient, but results may not be the best.
So, let's see some slow shutter motion
4 sec f20 ISO 100
1/8 sec f22 ISO 80
Star trails: 484 secs. f 8.0 ISO 100
13

Thank you, Pat. I shot the camping under the stars photo in Idaho the night before the solar eclipse in 2017.
Friends of mine are working to become an air show team, this is one of them doing a knife edge pass down the runway

Beautiful duck and terrific capture. The "Velvet" water background makes the duck a stand out.
