Freezing Action

Ice Carving Demonstation
Alaska
 

I wanted to capture the action of the man carving the block of ice. So I chose a shutter speed of 1/1000 second which was a short enough time to freeze ice chips flying through the air. I also raised the ISO setting to 400 to allow a good exposure in this indoor setting.
