Chapt 2 (2nd half) pages 52 - 69 (of UNDERSTAND EXPOSURE)

[mom to 4]

Ok!!!! this thread should have been posted on Monday and today is Wednesday. Sorry!!! I have been have sporadic (sp?) internet problems, but I think they self corrected! So, here we go with the 2nd half of chapter 2, BUT...... since I am posting this late, I am making an EXECUTIVE DECISION , and say we will have a week and a half to complete Chapter 2. How does that sound??? So, we have through November 4th to finish Chapter 2.

Edit: Oct. 25, 2007

I am adding the links for the prior chapters here. Someone suggested that might be a good idea for someone new to the book club who wants to start from the beginning.

Here is the link for chapter 1

Colleen,

What is this thread? I clicked on the link and found your photographs, but nothing about a "exposure"

Have I looked at a subscriber's post that I shouldn't be in?

Also, we are near neighbor's. I am in Delaware County, have family in Lanc and York.

Kimmer, it's about the book "Understanding Exposure", by Bryan Peterson - homework for those of us who've acquired that volume and are trying to improve our photographic knowledge and skills......

Thanks everyone for the reply, I have a ton of Photography books, but they all date back to the "good ole days" of 35mm!

I know, exposure is exposure, but that is one that I do not have.

I might just "listen" in, tho, thanks for the invite.

I'm wondering how in the heck I'll remember all this when I go out to take pictures. I caught on to the "correct exposure" chapter but this DOF is taking me back a bit. There are so many variables it seems. Sure large f-stops give a greater amount of sharpness and small ones less in the background; but then we have to worry about distance-settings, etc. It'll take me forever to set up a shot trying to remember, f-stops, shutter speeds, ISO, etc. Wow!
