For this first assignment, I managed to take pictures around Matheson Lake in Victoria. It was a cloudy day but I managed to capture some photographs of the lake water and a tree. For part 3, I set up a little stage with some crystals and captured the silhouette. I am using a Canon EOS Rebel XSI, and my lens is an EFS 18-55mm.
Camera_1 Part1-1
I set my camera to Shutter mode priority (TV), my ISO to auto and set my camera to spot metering. This image was shot with a shutter speed of 1/125 and an f stop of f/4.
Camera_1 Part 1-2
For part 1-2, I directed my spot metering onto a dark area of the scene and the shot turned out darker than the first image. This shot was taken with a shutter speed of 1/125 and an f/stop of f/4.
Camera_1 Part 1-3
For the final image in this area, I set the direction onto a bright area of the scene. This image is slightly brighter than the first 2. The shutter speed was at 1/125 and an f/stop of f/4. Within all 3 images, there wasn’t any change of my f/stop and leads me to believe there wasn’t enough variation of the brightness level.
