Moving

Hi All!
Well I've had a good day. Helped my friend Alison move to her new apartment. Afterwards I started on my Analytical report for my Business Report Writing class. Tomorrow should be "fun" getting it all done.

Again, I feel like I'm not getting enough variation in my pictures every night. Definitely need to get out and do some serious shooting over the break.

Tonight's photo is another example of a relatively slow shutter speed. This is the North Fork of the Wallace River up near Goldbar Washington. The aperture was f22, shutter speed of 1 second and an ISO of 100 (I'll go over ISO sometime this week hopefully). Thanks for viewing!

Shutter Speed

Hi all!
Nearly done with that paper, should have it done by tomorrow morning.

Tonight's photography tip is about shutter speed. First off, to take a correct exposure, you must have the right balance between aperture and shutter speed. The general rule is that the higher the aperture (low f-stop), the more light is being let into the lens, allowing for a fast shutter speed. While a low aperture (high f-stop), makes for a slower shutter speed. (Remember, all these "speeds" are relative; a fast shutter speed might be considered 1/250 of a second, where a slow shutter speed may be 1 second).

The photo I have up tonight is a perfect example of a slow shutter speed and a low aperture. It was taken at ISO 100, f11, and 30s. Hope you like it! If you want more information on night photography, let me know!
