Chapter 3: Light and Exposure

This chapter allowed me to learn about the reasons why things are the way they are when I take a photograph. The exposure talks about how much light is let into the lens, when there is a high exposure there will be a lot of light in the photograph and when there is a low exposure there is a small amount of light let into the photograph. I see picking the perfect light as an art, if it is just a little bit off the picture looks off but when put at the right exposure the image can be breathtaking. The Shutter speed and aperture coincide to create this beautiful image but you just have to know how to work them in your favor, creating a fun mood or a sadistic tone, all that you need to do is change around the exposure. Letting the shutter speed down and exposing more light in the photograph also allows for some interesting light art, thats what I have found in my own experience.
