For these pictures I went to various places such as, Fort Pheonix, Buffinton Park, And the Somerset Marsh. I chose my photos to have the rule of thirds, and line and shape. I brought along a few props with me as a photo base. For one specific picture such as the the landscape one with my dad picking my brother up on the rock, I took the photo from a far away distance. I took this photo straight on and it is a horizontal photograph. I definitely used the rule of thirds to help as a grid for my photographs. I used it in at least 2 of my pictures. The grid of the rule of thirds helped me figure out what angle I need to take the picture from. The photo I had described earlier, with my dad and brother, has dynamic composition that leads the viewers eye throughout the photograph, as there is a lot to see going from left to right.
As seen in the third photo in the gallery, there is an example of shallow depth perception aperture. We learned Aperture is how much light is allowed in to a photo, the bigger the opening, the fuzzier the photo will be, and if theres a small amount of light being let in, both the back and foreground will be in focus. F-stop is how i controlled the amount of light being let in, The bigger the f-stop number the smaller amount of light to come in, and more in focus your picture will be. Since all of these photos were taken outside, my ISO and WB was probably around 400-800. The first two photos on the bottom row, show the two different perspectives of aperture. Why would i want to use a shallow depth of field? because if i want one part of my picture in focus and the other part blurry, vise versa, or the entire photo in focus. (larger f-stop)
