Shutter Speed

Shutter speed can make unique photos. Shutter speed is the length of time the digital sensor is exposed to light. I took these four photos at different shutter speeds.

Learning about lighting

Lighting plays a big role in photography. There are three types of lighting. Frontal lighting, Sidelighting and Backlighting. Try taking one frontal, backlight and a sidelight photo and put them in black and white. For school, I had to learn about the different types of lighting and take five photos of an egg in black and white.

Learning to see

I walked around my school without a camera to get some ideas of what to take photos of. After I got four ideas, I went out and took the photos I thought of the next day. The photos that I took came out better than I thought.
