Cambridge In Colour Exposire

This website explains everything you need to know about taking good photos. In this website it goes over ISO, shutter speed and aperture. This website is very helpful to those who want to get into photography. It is the bomb.com but actually is this website right here.

Mathew B. Brady

Mathew Brady took a lot of photos during the 19th century civil war. From what I see, he took pictures of generals and the soldiers. He studied under inventor Samuel F. B. Morse, who pioneered the daguerreotype technique in America.

Ansel Adams

The colors in this photo are a blend of black, grey, and white. The river acts as a leading line to direct your attention to the mountains in the background. The river is smooth and the mountains are rough giving it a blend of textures. The contrast in this picture works around the river and the mountains. The trees are dark and the river is white so that you can see where is it coming from which is the mountains. The mountains are a mix of dark grey and white so you can see the elevations that goes to the sky.

This picture is a scene from my favorite movie, Donnie Darko. In this scene he talks to this giant walking and talking rabbit about time travel. Then he goes to this man named Jim Cunningham's house and burns it down. He burned down the house because the rabbit is testing his powers. When the fire department comes to the house they find some inappropriate things in his house. He was supposed to be this guy that people look up to and go to for help but he has some major problems himself.

Harry Callahan

Everyday it's the same thing. Go to work, go to school, be where you're supposed to. It's a daily routine. Life is so precious but we waist it on doing things we may not enjoy.

Keith Carter

Once upon a time there was a girl. She longed for love but could never find it. Man after man, she grew old and ugly. She died and came back as a ghost. Her beautiful ghost lures men to their demise.

Lillian Bassman

Lillian Bassman is a photographer and painter. I like her photos because they're all mostly black and white and have a kind of eerie vibe to them. I like the way she takes her photos.

Shutter Speed

Shutter speed is a the amount of time that a camera's shutter is open. This allows light, usually after it has passed through a lens and through the aperture diaphragm, to strike a photosensitive surface, like film or a digital sensor. Shutter speed is good for nighttime photos.

Depth of field

This photo uses depth of field because the photo is focused of the guitar and not the background. I like it because I like the guitar and how the picture looks. The color really catches my attention.

This picture uses the rule, leading lines. The trees lead your attention to the moon. I like this photo because it reminds me of a special person. She is really cool and she is all I see. 

F/Stop

This pretty much sums it up. "My favorite analogy for exposure is filling a bucket with water. A bucket is of fixed size and needs a certain amount of water to fill it, just like the sensor in your camera, which is of a set sensitivity (the ISO) and needs a certain amount of light to optimally capture an image. To fill a bucket, you can pour a small stream of water for a long time or a fast stream of water for a short time. Either way, you end up with the same amount of water. In photography, the size of the stream of the water is analogous to the f/stop, the length of time you pour is analogous to the shutter speed, and the size of the bucket is analogous to the ISO. Broadly speaking, from the bucket's point of view, it doesn't matter which combination of stream size and length of time you choose as long as the right amount of water ends up coming in. Photography is the same; within limits, your camera is indifferent as to the combination of time and amount of light as long as the right amount of light eventually arrives."

F/Stop in a nutshell
