For my M mode assignment, I captured photos of mostly flowers and bees. With adding both aperture and shutter speed to create both a dark and bright feeling I was able to take a couple of photos. With the photo of the bright yellow flower, I found it easy to use the aperture as the background was really blurred out and only the flower was in focus. I also found it easier to take photos of flowers because they don’t really move or go anywhere. The only thing I had a hard time with was remembering how to create a photo that made a dark/lonely feeling. As for creating a bright feeling, it was easier to create with just having to mess with the shutter speed.
