Three Pillars of Exposure

1. The part of the body that we should closely relate to aperture is the eye.
2. The smaller aperture, the greater the depth, the higher the aperture the smaller the depth.
3. A smaller aperture with bring all objects into focus while a bigger aperture will isolate the foreground from the background by making the foreground objects sharper than the background.

1. When the camera is on "Auto" mode, the shutter speed are automatically selected by the camera.

2. When the camera is on "Manual" mode, you set both the shutter speed and aperture manually.

3. You set the shutter speed when you set the camera on "Shutter Priority" mode.

High Shutter Speed

 Low Shutter Speed

1. During night there isn't so much light and a higher ISO will increase the light in the picture.
2. Low ISO is  high speed
3. High ISO is slow speed

ISO 200

ISO 6400

F4- 1/250; The background is blurry

F5.6 - 1/60; The background is less blurry
F8 - 1/60; The background is less blurry
F11- 1/60; The background is more clear
F16- 1/30; It's the same the background
F22 - 1/8; When the background is more clear.

At slow shutter speed the people are blurry so a higher shutter speed will solve the problem.

The lowest shutter speed is 1/40 where the photographer can hand-hold the camera without a tripod.

* On the tests I took, I did very good on the ones that showed the the pictures. I understand the 3 pillars better now.

Caption Writing: 5 Ws and H

1.   Tom Hanks kisses Lucy Washington Thursday at noon at Times Square in New York City. Hanks grabbed Washington and gave her a long passionate kiss after he heard that the allies had defeated the Nazis.

2.   Albert Einstein sticks his tongue out as a reporter tries to take a picture at night  in his car in Austin, Texas. Einstein mockingly made fun of the reporter after he found out the reporter was the dumbest child in his class in elementary.

 3.   June Moreland cries out for help for Eric McDonald to a bystander at 2 p.m. at the University of Texas. June loudly yelled at the bystander to call an ambulance to help Eric after he gets shot in the head innocently for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

 4.   Austin Parker jumps out of on of the twin towers at 4 p.m., September 11, 2001 in New York. Parker quickly jumped after the planes hit the tower so his death would be quicker.
