Assignment 4: Motion and Depth of Field

 Narrow depth of Field

 Fast Shutter

 Slow Shutter

Well. This was an assignment of trial and error for me––leaning on the error side. My main difficulty was making the slow shutter speeds work. I definitely need to invest in a tripod because camera shake was a huge problem for me and limited the kinds of shots I could take. I think next time I would shoot the dandelion shot on a fast shutter speed (which was impossible because we lost the light upon that epiphany) and I think varying my lighting would have offered greater diversity to the look and feel of my shots. Time was another huge constraint because I often lost the light that I wanted to work with which either caused my shots to turn out with a bad or undesired exposure, or just forced me to stop shooting. I need to plan out my shooting times better in the future.
