Shutter Priority

I took this image at a shutter speed of 1/30 because I wanted some of the cars in the background to be blurred.

I took this image at a shutter speed of 1/25 because I wanted it to look like my subject’s face was being sucked out of her like someone or something is pulling it.

I took this image with a shutter speed of 1/8 because I needed a slow shutter speed to make it look like my subject appears kind of like a ghost. I wanted to create an eerie feeling for my audience.

I took this image at a shutter speed of 1/250 because I wanted to catch my subject jumping in the air.

I think the best white balance for this picture is cloudy because  it isn’t too white like the sunlight picture and it isn’t too yellow like the shade image. It doesn’t not drain my subject of color or add too much yellow to my subject’s skin color.

Aperture Priority

I took this image at f/13 because I wanted a shallower depth of field to focus on the bike instead of the full scenery.

I took this image using f/11 because I wanted a shallow depth of field to focus on the rain drops on the plant.

I took this image at f/16 because I wanted a greater depth of field to focus on the entire landscape.

I took this image at f/9.0 to create a shallow depth of field because I wanted to focus on the bee and the flower.
