An Egg in Manual Settings by Francine








In this assignment, we were given an easter egg to take pictures of in manual settings. We were in charge of changing the aperture, the shutter speed and the ISO settings in our cameras in order to get a good photo of our eggs. I kept playing around with the shutter speed and the aperture whenever we were taking the photos outside and inside. It's because outside has lots of light from the sun and inside there was only light from the building. For the ISO, it was better to have a lower ISO so the photo would be clearer, but if you require more light you needed to change the ISO higher. This assignment was fun to do because we kept playing with the camera and now I know how to take proper pictures in the manual settings.

Egg in Manuel Settings By RJ


In this assignment, we were given an egg and with the egg, we were tasked to take pictures of the egg in different areas and backgrounds. The slight twist was that instead of using the aperture or Av setting, we instead had to use Manuel settings and the main settings that we used in our photos was ISO, Shutter Speed, and F-stop. After this assignment, I had a better understanding of which settings do best with which conditions and what effect they have on the pictures. This brought out more options for me to use when taking different kinds of photos. Overall, this assignment was both fun and challenging and it really tested what I could do with a camera in hand.

For this assignment we were all given a plastic egg and we had to take pictures of it while using manual settings in different locations and lighting conditions. When doing this, we adjusted and played around with the aperture setting, shutter speed, and ISO. Doing this assignment helped us learn how to examine lighting conditions and understand how to manipulate our camera settings to get a good picture. In all my photographs I have my egg as the main focus but still making sure to showcase the different background settings and lighting. This was a more difficult assignment and most of my pictures were black screens but overall it was very fun and I enjoyed learning more about photography and camera settings.

In GCT we were given the assignment of photographing plastic eggs in various environments. While in manual mode we did our absolute best to take in account of all the elements such as lighting, aperture, and shutter speed to capture the best photos we could. Although I probably butchered most of my photos, I am glad to say I leave this assignment with a better understanding of my equipment and the importance of specific settings.

For this assignment, Mr. Harbeck gave us a plastic egg to take pictures of in certain places around the school. The pictures we took of the egg were in manual settings. This assignment was fun and a little tricky because we had to change the ISO, Shutter Speed, and other stuff due to the condition it was in. When we were outside, we had to make the shutter speed higher because there was lots of light from the sun. Although it was a little tricky, it was fun taking these pictures and I got to learn more about the camera settings.

How do you turn something as ordinary as a plastic egg into something interesting and eye catching? With this task, we really had to let our creative juices flow to come up with ideas that are captivating and not repetitious. Furthermore, shooting in manual mode was a requirement, which could end up both ways - a disaster or a gorgeous photograph. While shooting manually does tend to be very tedious while adjusting the settings, it was a very interesting experience, as the experimentation with shots resulted in varying photographs with the exact same subject. Admittedly, trying to figure out the aperture and shutter speed was a bit confusing, as well as figuring out what type of shot I wanted to produce. Do I want this shot in the bird's eye view? Worm's eye? Eye-level? Where do I want the light to hit? How should I position the egg? These were just a few thoughts that my indecisive self struggled with. However, I did manage to have end results that I am satisfied with.

For this assignment we received an egg from Mr. Harbeck. Our task was to go around and take pictures of the plastic egg. Mr. Harbeck has listed places where we have to take pictures of the egg. We had to take all the pictures in manual mode on our cameras. The different places also have different lighting conditions that we had to adjust the camera to.We had to analyze our lighting conditions to get the best of our pictures, like controlling our ISO, setting our F-stop and setting up our shutter speed. It wasn't easy, but we got to play around with the settings and learn more about the camera and photography as we did this assignment.
