Shutter Speed Photography - How to Use a Slow Shutter Speed for Birds in Flight

You don't have to use a fast shutter speed to photograph birds in flight. Using a much slower shutter speed to show the movement can add a different feel to your photos Another benefit.. you can also keep the ISO down. In this tutorial I show you the techniques I use for flying birds, including panning for creative photos.
