"AutoFocus Limitations"

I decided to pick this photo for my last Focus exercise because it contains many fine details. the image also shows the limitations of AutoFocus because it lacks brightness which made it difficult to get the subject on focus.

"AutoFocus Limitations"

I choose this photo for my second image. I decided to capture my friend, Livia, in front of a pine tree as her jacket has the same color shade (the color of the jacket changed in the computer because of the exposure) . It was hard to get her in focus as there is so much going on at the background.

 "Close-up shots" 

This is the first photo that I took for this exercise. I capture this photo by moving closer to the subject and setting the camera lens to AutoFocus. The main part of this first exercise is to try to focus on a close-up subject and I think I achieved it.  What I also like about the photo is the contrast of one flower gives.

4th White Balance Exercise Lab 7

White Balance

For my last photo, I decided to edit the third picture I took because it was too bright. The whiteness of the building was covered so I decided to bring down the level of brightness and the contrast to show depth. I also added a bit of sharpness on the building to create texture.

I tried to set the white balance to Direct Sunlight as the sun was facing directly towards the building. However, the sunlight was lighting the whole place and my photo did not turn out as nice. It was also difficult for me to control the white balance preset properly as I am still not familiar with the settings.

I like how the white balance turned out in this photo because it gives enough sunlight. This also captivates me because we can see the trees' reflection on the water.

In this photo, I tried to experiment by trying out different types of white balance and changing its filter color. I like the way this photo turned out because it has a cool tone that compliments the color of the flower just by using the fluorescent setting.
