Slow Sync

Slow sync flash

Slow sync flash is just a fancy term for using your flash with a slow shutter speed. It helps you keep your subject sharp while capturing motion or a dark background. Firing the flash at the start of the exposure is known as "front curtain" or "1st curtain". Firing it at the end is known as "rear curtain". Slow sync flash combines a slow shutter speed with a burst of flash

My images were of Eleanor. I increased the shutter speed to increase the motion blur in the photos i took a picture at 1/125 shutter speed to show what the photos look like without blur, i increased it to 4 seconds, then 8, then 10.the blur increased as you can see in every photo.
