For this photo assignment, I was tasked with making a light painting. Light Painting is the process of leaving the camera shutter open for a long period of time while moving a light source around to create the effect of lines of light in the air. To accomplish this, I went in both the garage and basement, turned all the lights off, and set the camera in manual mode to make sure it didn't focus on anything else. I took a lot of pictures, but this one has to be the best. When I took this photo, the ISO was set to 100, the aperture was set to 10, and the shutter speed was set to 30. To make the original photo better, I went into Adobe Photoshop and raised the brightness as well as make the rest of the background darker to get rid of distractions. Through this assignment, I learned how to use the shutter speed and manual focus settings better. By learning to use manual focus, I was able to make sure the light and subject stayed in focus. Since it was a dark and the shutter speed was enough to capture all the light necessary, I didn't really have to adjust the ISO setting for I could keep it low and still have an image that captured all the light I needed. By adjusting the shutter speed, I was able to shoot may wonderful pictures of moving light at my house.
