  1. Adjust your camera’s Aperture: reduce your Aperture. “As you decrease the Aperture by one stop, you decrease the size of the shutter opening by 50%”
  2. Decrease your ISO: a higher number will make it more sensitive to light and a lower number will make the sensor less sensitive. Lower number allows you to choose longer shutter speeds
  3. Use a neutral density filter or a polarizing filter
  4. Try Slow Sync Flash
  5. Panning or moving your camera along with the moving subject
