Aperture 4


f/ 3.5
shutter speed 1/4000
ISO: 400

This photo came out very good due to the aperture settings. Since the f/ was very low the aperture was opened very wide, allowing more light in. Another benefit for a large aperture is that the depth of field is decreased. This adds a portrait mode look to the photo, isolating the subject.

Aperture 3


f/ 4.0
shutter speed: 1/200
ISO:400


f/16.0
shutter speed: 1/13
ISO:400



f/25
shutter speed: 1/6
ISO:400

Whenever you increase the f/ of your camera, more light is let in. This increases the depth of field of the picture. What I mean by this is that the picture's background will be less blurry. If you look at the pictures above, the background becomes less blurry and more detailed as the f/ is increased.

Aperture 2


f/25
shutter speed: 1/125
ISO: 400


f/4
shutter speed: 1/4000
ISO: 400

Because of how high the f/ was in the first picture, more of the background was in focus. In other words the depth of field was increased. When the f/ increased the lens let in more light.

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.
