1.6 Manual Exposure Practice
Objective
Gain comfort with Manual mode and an understanding of exposure by taking 3 "Bracket Exposure" photos of the same subject.
| Choose your subject and location for the photoshoot. A stable surface or tripod is necessary to avoid camera shake. |
Use manual mode to take 3 photos with 3 different exposure values: -2, 0, and +2. Set the ISO to 100 and adjust the shutter speed and aperture as needed. |
| Add your photos to your Lightroom library. Color-correct, add presets, etc. to improve their contrast and interest. |
| Lightroom: Select your edited photos and click the “Export” button in the bottom left of the library. All exports should have the long edge equal to 2500px. |
Upload your 3 photos into a gallery block on your WordPress.com website. Caption each photo with the exposure stats. Below, describe the objective of the project and how you approached it. |
