Last time in class we explored shallow depths of field by opening our aperture up all the way to f1.8. Today we're going to practice working with shallow depth of field while focusing on very specific parts of the image.
To learn how focusing with the D80 works, we're going to do something craze; we're going to read the manual. The pages that deal with focus can be found HERE.
After carefully reading, reviewing, and understanding the pages from the manual, you will put your understanding into action in a series of three photos. The photos should each contain at least three object. In the first photo you will focus on the object closest to the camera. In the second photo you will focus on the center object. In the third photo you will focus on the object furthest from the camera. Your aperture should be set at f1.8 for all of these pictures. See below for an example.
Post all of your photos to your blog along with a short reflection of the process that you went through to take the photos.
Good Luck!
