photo #1
Objective 2: Creative Exposure
The camera mode (P, Tv, Av, M) and why I chose it: I used the camera mode M so that I could adjust the aperture and ISO.
F stop used and why: I used the f stop 5.6 to have a small aperture to create a small depth of field of the flower.
Shutter speed used and why: I used the shutter speed 1/60 so that I could capture the image with as little shake as possible and to avoid a blurry image.
ISO used and why: I used the ISO 100 so that it would let in more light.
Exposure compensation and why it was used: I used the auto exposure compensation to keep a natural light in the photo.
Focal length and why: I used the focal length 55.0 mm so that I could get a really close-up view of the flower.
Objective 3: Elements and Principles of Design
The elements of design demonstrated:
Line: This photo has diagonal and curved lines.
Space: This photo creates space with a negative background because it is plain, and you can't see anything else except the flower.
Form: This photo has form because of the shadows on the individual petals that give off a 3D effect.
Texture: This photo has texture because it is a macro shot, and makes the petals appear soft and smooth.
Objective 4: Lighting
Type of lighting and why: I used natural lighting for this photo. I used this type of lighting to create more dramatic shadows in between the petals to give a 3D look to it.
Objective 5: Post Production
Corrections/adjustments made:
Sharpening
Resizing
Brightening
Contrast
Objective 6: Critique
Strengths:
Lighting
Lines
Contrast
Space
Areas of Improvement:
Could have gotten the whole flower, with all the petals
Objective 7: Photographic Styles (ex. portrait, landscape, etc.) – Explain why the settings and composition are appropriate for the style of photography
Type/style of photography: Macro
The camera mode (P, Tv, Av, M): M
f stop used: 5.6
shutter speed used: 1/60
ISO used: 100
Exposure compensation: auto
Focal length: 55.0 mm
Elements and Principles of Design
The principles of design demonstrated:
Balance
Proportion
Rhythm
Unity
The elements of design demonstrated:
