For my assignment in Digital Photo 1, I had to take photographs using different apertures, shutter speeds, and ISO. My favorite kind of images are those with a shallow depth of field. I used a low aperture number to get the blurred background and sharply focused subject.These three photos are a few of my favorites from the ones I shot for the assignment. With the silhouette of the chicken I made sure that the light was behind the chicken. For the flower image and the plant with the bee on it, I made sure to get very close so that the backgrounds were as blurred as possible.
I really enjoyed this assignment of using the settings of my camera. It helped me to understand how the different apertures, shutter speeds, and ISO can really change an image and make it how it was intended to look.
