Aperture


f/22.0
shutter speed: 1/5
ISO: 400


f/8.0
shutter speed: 1/40
ISO: 400


f/5.6
shutter speed: 1/60
ISO: 400

As you can see from the pictures as the f/ increased so did the depth of field. In other words the background of the picture became more into focus. It does this by allowing more light to go inside. However there is a trade off for more light.
  If you look at the picture with the highest aperture, the picture is a bit blurry. Since the lens is allowing more light to come through the shutter speed is longer. So it becomes hard to stand still and keep the picture in focus.

ISO Sensitivity


ISO Sensitivity regulates how much light gets into the camera. The higher the number the more light will enter. This picture was taken in very dark room at 1600 ISO. Now along with a brighter pictures comes negatives. The picture will appear to be grainer and will take a long time to capture. 


This picture is the same, just taken at a different sensitivity. I took this photo at the lowest sensitivity I could, which was 200. Any lower and the photo will not have been taken. Because the sensitivity was so low it took longer to capture and it was more sensitive to movement which explains the blurriness. Other than that the only difference is the amount of light.

Point of View


This is a close up picture using the macro lens. The macro lens allows you to get really close to the subject and still be able to focus. This picture of dead flowers embodies the feeling sorrow and loss.



This is a weird angle picture and was also taken using the macro lens. Notice how you can see the inside of the usb port. This picture reveals the usb port that is under the keyboard.


This is a low perspective picture. As you can see the girl is directly under the camera as she uses her camera. This angle makes the photo very unique.


This is a high perspective photo. Although it was a bit far from the camera, I went on my tip toes and used the macro lens for more focus. This picture shows how the clocks in the school aren't accurate. This photo was not taken at the time read on the clock.


This is another close up using the macro lens. With the lens, I was able to get the rust in detail and the little rubber pebbles from the turf.

Interrupted Paterns


Interrupted Patterns are usually used to focus on the subject. Because of it's differet from the background pattern around it, the viewer's eyes are drawn to the picture

In this picture the subject shows uniqueness among the rest of the picture. It's bright color it gets the attention of the viewer.


In this picture the name of the brown book are brought out because of the dull surroundings.

Contrast Photography


I took this picture to show the contrast between skin colors. The skin on the left, being darker than the one on the right, pops out because of this characteristic
