Lesson 2 on Andie’s blog. I found a little bit prettier subject today. Aperture also controls how much light is let into the camera, but also has a little bit to do with depth of field. Most simply put, it’s how much of the background is blurred in your picture. So, as you can see in my pics, the exposure gets darker as the f-stop number goes up. (You can read more about f-stops on Andie’s blog!) And if you can look closey at the backgrounds, you will see that they actually come more in focus as the number goes up as well. So…here is the homework:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
So, which one looks “right” to you? Which one looks closest to the correct exposure? Not too much light, and not too little? (Just a little pop quiz… )
