Photography Basics Assignment

1. Depth of File Photo Pair:

This picture was taken using a Canon Rebel EOS7D with the AV settings changed.  This picture information is ISO 400; f/5; 1/4 . Although the light isn't good, so not everything in the picture is in focus, there is much more in focus than in the second picture taken with different settings.

This picture was taken using the same camera with AV settings changed again.  This one has information of f/1.4; 1/50 and the same ISO 400. 

As you can see in this picture, almost everything in the picture except the front frame is blurred.  I didn't realize there'd ever be a time you'd want part of a picture blurry, but see now that you can eliminate people from looking at things you don't want them to focus on by setting your camera to take narrow depth of field pictures.

2. Motion Capture Pair:

Fast Shutter Speed almost looks like the drops are suspended in air. This was shot with a Canon EOS7D with f/2.2 and shutter up to 1/2000.

 Slow shutter speed looks like it's all a continuous stream.  Shot with a Canon EOS7D with f/8 and shutter only at 1/13.
