Fast Shutter Speed- Image # 3
The shutter speed was 1/640th of a second. The ISO was set to 800 and the White Balance was fluorescent. The action I froze was of an umbrella being spun. I took the photo head on about four feet away from the subject as she spun it. The circle of the umbrella creates shape.
Slow Shutter Speed- Image # 2
The shutter speed was 1/40th of a second. The ISO was set to 100 and the White Balance was set to cloudy, due to the weather conditions that day. The motion being blurred is of Hannah rolling away on a skateboard. I zoomed in a little and shot the photo head on, about five or six feet away from the subject. The way her arms extend and create a diagonal line add to the notion that she is soaring.

For painting with light, we used various light sources to create different "paintings" and patterns. For the first photo, I used the exposure of 6 seconds. The light came from two different sets of Christmas lights, one multi-colored, the other plain white lights. They were simultaneously swung around in circular motions. During the exposure, I panned the camera back and forth so it would create a pattern all across the photo. Personally, when i look at this photo, i feel like I'm on a carousel or some type of carnival ride that is spinning really fast. This could have the same effect on the viewer.

Shallow Depth of Field- Image #5
For shallow depth of field, the f-stop was set to f/5.3. The ISO was 800 and the white balance was set to fluorescent.
Large Depth of Field- Image #1
For Large depth of field, the f-stop was set to f/29. The ISO was 800, while the White Balance was set to fluorescent.
While I prefer a shallow depth of field photo, I think the large depth of field photo came out better. In the shallow depth photo, the skull that is in focus borders on being over exposed and it isn't easy to fix without distorting it all together.
You would want to use a shallow depth of field when you are trying to frame something specific in a photograph.
You would want to use a large depth of field when the point of the photograph is to keep everything in focus.

These photos were taken on an unusually foggy day mid-December. The first set is of the original photos that were taken, mostly in color. The second set is of the same photos, only they are converted to black and white. The fog gives more of an eerie feeling to the picture. For example, in the second photo, the street is easily seen but as it goes on, it is obscured by the fog, creating a sense of mystery. For this set, we went outside around the school to take photos.
