Learning Objectives
CDFP 384 – Digital Capture II - Assignment #3 - Still Life with Available Light
Learning Objectives1. Understand natural lighting’s affect on subject
2. Compose shots to maximize lighting effects
3. Concerns about getting good composition, depth of field and exposure may be compromised in order to learn about light more deeply.

Outcomes
CDFP 384 – Digital Capture II - Assignment #3 - Still Life with Available Light
Learning Outcomes1. Scouting out location required. Could not just use ad-hoc location as
sun was not right.
2. Might have to move either location or change shot list based on sun location and effect on subject
3. Needed shooting plan. Had to plan shots and make sure that sun was inline with desired shooting schedule.
4. Taking exact same shot at different times was very difficult to set car in exact location.
5. At noon sun is not directly above; due to earth’s angle and Toronto’s location on the earth.
