HOMEWORK: Read the article learning composition
http://photodoto.com/learning-composition-foreground-middleground-background/

Answer the following questions from the article:

Describe the characteristics of an image photographed with a small aperture

Describe the characteristics of an image photographed with a large aperture

How can you draw interest to a specific part of an image?

How do people often scan a photograph?

What is the rule of thirds and why do we use it to compose an image?

What should you take into consideration with background middle-ground and foreground when composing an image.

Use this information to answer the questions below:

NOTE: Each camera and lens system will vary, dslr bodies also commonly use half and one third steps for exposure

Apertures available on the lens
2.8 4 5.6 8 11 16 22

Shutter speeds available on the camera
1000 - 500 - 250 - 125 - 60 - 30 - 15 - 8 - 4 - 2 - 1 - B


What is the largest aperture available on the lens?

What is the B shutter setting for?

Which aperture setting makes a larger opening inside the lens f/2.8 or f/22

Stopping down from f/8 to f/11 will let more or less light into the lens?

If you camera meters at f/8 @ 1/60 what would the equivalent exposure at f/5.6?

If you camera meters at f/5.6 @ 1/30 what would the equivalent exposure at f/2.8?

If you camera meters at f/4 @ 1/15 what would the equivalent exposure at 1/30?

If you camera meters at f/22 @ 1/2 what would the equivalent exposure at 1/250?
