Sufficient Daylight Problem

I kept running into the problem of daylight. In order to get good stopping/ freezing of rapid motion, a very fast shutter speed is required. This fast speed makes it so the sensor receives light for a very short amount of time, so in order to have a well-exposed image, there has to be a lot of light, even if the the ISO speed is at its maximum setting. My schedule kept working out so that I could take pictures either when it was cloudy or in the hours surrounding sunset, so I was always struggling to get a stop motion image. The best I have is a 1/500 second exposure of ripples on the surface of water.
