Yucky Homework

Yuck...Homework. So my homework is due tomorrow and I'm scrambling to get it done. It's earily familiar, this feeling of dread and fear. It brings me back to college and having to write a term paper. I remember how much I hate pouring myself into something and then putting yourself out there for another to critique your work. Just writing this is making me cringe...

So, if you're interested, here is Week 1's homework.

Now, keep in mind, I'm not 100% sure if what I'm doing is correct, I don't know if we're supposed to alter the image in any way (I'm assuming not b/c this week was all about exposure), and cuz I'm a mommy, I didn't have that much time to devote to my lessons.

Shutter Speed

capture action = speed up shutter speed/create motion = slow down shutter speed

Aperture/f-stop

Place two objects about a foot apart, one in front of the other. Take one picture with a shallow depth of field, and another with greater depth of field.

F 4.2, 1/13, ISO 800

f 16, 1", ISO 800

ISO

Outside, shoot an object at ISO 100, then again at ISO 400 or higher while maintaining good exposure. Then, go inside and find the appropriate f-stop/shutterspeed and increase the ISO till you have an appropriate ISO.

I'm still working on the 1st part, but here's the second part:

So...(I'm cringing) what do you think? All the Photographers out there...any comments? I have to turn this in tomorrow and want to be the best in the class! XOXO

P.S. for any of you who entered the Best Faces of 2010 contest...did any of you notice your picture was no longer there? I checked today and #575 was not my photo! Did I get eliminated for some reason? Just wondering...

We'd love a vote!
