Frozen not by temperature, but by time.

Another that fits what I just wrote for the post two prior. Actually this reminded me I hadn’t checked out your posts lately and I went back to start where I left off. Hopped over one but this and the other are both so intriguing.

You’ve reminded me that the earliest photography took hours to freeze time. Technological advances reduced the freezing time time to minutes, then seconds, and now in most cases to a few tenths or hundredths of a second. For someone in a cold enough climate, temperature can do the job, too.

  Yes amazing what we take for granted. This was only the thousandth of a second. My camera can do 1/8000.

    My camera can do 1/8000 too but I’ve almost never used that highest speed.

    I’ve mostly used a speed like 1/2000 to try to freeze the splashing of water in a waterfall.

    Yes. As you know I tend to go the other direction.
