Shutter Speed

• For this image I have made sure that I have took the shutter speed into consideration I made the shutter speed was 1/640 this allowed me to get the rain drops falling into the water .By having a high shutter speed that means that more exposure time that the camera has to the light .This allows the camera to capture faster moving objects without any motion blur . Although by doing this it meant that the ISO would need to be higher since by the higher the shutter speed the darker the image .Because of this I needed to up the ISO to 6400 this is the highest ISO that my camera can go up to .

Shutter Speed

• For this image I have also put a lot of consideration into the use of shutter speed .But unlike the last this time I have made a low shutter speed this is will add some motion blur . The concept of this image is a flock of gules flying over a lake .I only meant to have the image slightly blurring to show the speed of the birds .But I have made the shutter speed to high so it is too blurry .The shutter speed that I used was 1/100 although it is not the lowest that it can go it is still hard t control without a tripod to hold the camera it will shake to much and the background will have a blur effect too and not just the objects that you wish to . Because the shutter speed is only slightly lower than normal I did not need to adjust the ISO.

Iso• This is the adjustment of the Iso of the image .

The Iso is how sanative the camera can be when In the light .The iso works by the lower the number the darker the image the higher the number the lighter the image . For example if it is the same time of day at the same place if one shot was 100 iso it would be a dark image and if one shot was 800 iso it would be brighter .With the image on the left it is where I have changed the iso of the camera .This is an photo of some braches and three which I have taken . The iso of this particular photo is 800 iso although this is usually classed as being a bright iso but because I have upped the aperture the photo got darker the aperture of this image is F/6.3

ISO

• Although the image was taken slightly lower than the previous it has been taken at the same location and the same time of day . On this image I have upped the ISO so the brightness of this image so it gives a lighter feel to the photo .the ISO of this particular image is 3200 compared to the last one which is 800 it is a lot brighter. I have made sure that the F stop of this image remains the same as the pervious one(which was F/6.3) so the only difference would be the ISO

Aperture & Depth of Field

Aperture is the adjustment of light that passes through a camera this is will affect the lighting of the image as well as the depth of field . Depth of field is how focus or unfocused the background is in an photograph .an example of me using this is with the following image . With the image to the right I have took depth of field into consideration . I have made the F stop f/6.3 this is a wide depth of field this made it so the background behind the squirrel will be in focus this will take some of the focus of the object such as the squirrel so when taking a photo of a signal object it is better to have a high aperture so the object or animal etc. takes all the focus .

Aperture & Depth of Field

• Although this photo has been taken in a slightly different location it still shares the same concept with the previous image . Unlike the last with a wide depth of field this one has a narrow depth of field so less light is getting into the camera this will make the background out of focus .the F-stop of this photograph is much higher on this image to the previous so the background is almost completely out of focus . This works well for this image because it allows the viewers to focused on the animal a nothing else this can be sometimes interrupted if the background is in focus .

Manual Exposure

• Manual exposure is the control over all of the techniques that the camera can used in order to change how the photograph will turn out . These include the ISO ,Sutter speed and F-stop .I have done this with the photographs that I have taken for example with the top image the ISO is 1600 ,the shutter speed is 1/125 and the F-stop is F/5.6

• Another example is the image at the bottom The ISO is 400 ,the shutter speed is 1/160 and the F-stop is 6.3 these are some of the exposure techniques that I have used in my photography

Rule of thirds

• The rule of thirds which is also known as the rule of thumb . This is a guideline when taking photographs the idea is that the part of the image that you which for the viewer to focus on should be on the integrating lines . I have experimented with using this rule in my work with the following images . For example with the photograph of the squirrel to the right I have made sure that its head is on the integrating lines as well as the bottom of the squirrel. By doing this it will attract the viewer the particular part of the image , I have thought about the rule of thirds on multiple photographs anther example of me using it is with the picture at the bottom of the magpie I have made sure that all the integrating lines are positioned around the bird so that it is positioned directly in the centre .
