Shutter Speed can also be called exposure. It is the amount of time the film or digital sensor is exposed to the light. It can be a lot of light or a little and this depend on whether its a high or low shutter speed.
High Speeds - they create photos that almost look frozen in time, every single detail captured.
Low Speeds - they capture the motion in photos for example light trails or water {water falls}

This is an example of low speed photography and below is my example.

This is an example of high speed photography and below is my example.
A high shutter speed creates almost a freezing effect as if time has stopped. In high shutter speeds the shutter takes the photo in 1/4000 or slower. An artist who creates photos like this is called Jasper Nance. He uses high shutter speeds to capture bullets going through different objects. Another photographer that uses high shutter speeds is Hannoc. He takes photos of balloons when they are shot or things are thrown at them, to see what happens. Also another photographer that uses high shutter speeds is some one called Stephen. He takes a range of random and different objects and shoots a bullet through them, for example a Christmas bauble. My favorite examples of high shutter speed photography are by someone called Borris Bos. He takes very simple high shutter speed photos of fruit falling in to water. This was my favorite because its very elegant and simplistic and it captures all the water droplets gracefully.
