Photography


There are many different genres in photography. These are: Aerial (from above), Black and White, commercial, documentary, fashion, fine art, forensic, glamour, high speed, illustration, landscape, nature, paparazzi, photojournalism, portrait, still life, stock, underwater and wedding.

- I learnt that light always travels in a straight line. When the image is unable to bend, the image is turned upside down.

- In photography, a shutter allows light to pass for a determined period of time.

- When it comes to shutter speed, the higher the number, the more focus the object is in. As the shutter speed decreases the image blurs.

- The aperture is the actual hole in the camera. It can be made bigger or smaller.

- Aperture has f-stops that can allow you to change the size of the photo.

- If you use a small hole you can’t take in as much as would in a bigger hole.

- The lens of the camera captures the light from the subject and brings it to focus on the film.

- The size of the aperture and the brightness of the scene controls the amount of light that enters the camera during the period of time. The shutter controls the length of time that the light hits the surface.

- Depth of field scale is about the foreground, middleground and background. It can change what is focused on.
