I had a few spare minutes this afternoon so, I'm biting the bullet and gonna start this thing :-) I'm SO ready to improve my skills!! I thought it was neat that you can get the same exact exposure with completely different numbers. The first 3 pics you can't tell any difference at all but in the last 3 the bokeh is more pronounced in the first pic than in the last.
Having a set aperture:
ISO 200, f/8, 1/100
ISO 400, f/8, 1/200
ISO 800, f/8, 1/400Having a set shutter speed:
ISO 200, f/5.6, 1/125
ISO 400, f/7.1, 1/125
ISO 800, f/10, 1/125All of these are sooc, as I refuse to edit pics like these :-) No need to waste my precious time!
And a random question, I'm trying to work on getting a photowalk in Indy organized and was wondering how your calendar looks in about 2-4 weeks? Any days you're not available? I want to move on it because we may be making a move soon and I REALLY want to do this!! Let me know what won't work for you and I'll work around your schedule. I figure everyone else who would like to participate would have to clear their schedules :-) I was thinking of inviting Heidi, Steph (a local photog buddy), Sarah (not sure if she'd like to participate but I'll invite her anyways!). I also thought about offering it on the blog to anyone who may be interested. Just don't want to attract any psychos. Can you think of anyone else who may want to join us?
I could post the walk on my facebook if you want. I have a few Louisville photog friends that might want to come...maybe.
ReplyDeleteI've been reading the book but I need to get on the ball with the exercises.
I have kind of a full plate in July. I have big things (20th HS reunion and Guatemalan trip) the last two weekends of July. I am totally free the second weekend of July (12) or into August.
So does this mean the move is on?
About the exercise, I did do this one a while back but didn't keep the pictures. It was simple and yet confused me to death. I don't have a mind that works like that...I had a really hard time remembering the full stops. I'll try again later today but I think it is cool that you can get the same look with totally different settings.
ReplyDeleteIs the book messing with you? It is me. I feel like I am really struggling right now...I have a tendency to get confused as I learn. It frustrates me and then all of the sudden it will click.
