I had fun taking these three pictures. I did have some trouble figuring out the settings and what to take a picture of, but I managed to figure it out. The first picture with Bokeh was a lucky one because the picture was taken way before we started talking about Aperture. It was back when we were learning about Shutter speed. It was taken at the Flea Market in Lindsey. At first, the purpose of the picture was to get parents blurry while the people from afar were clear and focused. After I looked at the picture, it was good. It had one of those lights from movies where it’s just a dot but blurred reflected off of my mom’s glasses. When the time to talk about Bokeh came, In my head, I said, “OH MY GOODNESS” I have a picture like that. I was super excited since you get extra points for Bokeh. For the High Depth Of Field, I had some trouble with the settings and what to take a picture of. I decided to take some pictures of pretty flowers. Now, it was just the settings. I kept taking pictures of them, fixing the settings each time until I got them right. The shutter speed was at 1/1250, and the ISO was 100. For the last picture, it was something simple and easy, but I also tried not to get stung by the bee. The Shutter speed was at 1/50, the ISO was 100.

For the Background Blur, I decided to get a little bit creative by taking pictures of my games. There were two games I decided to take and they were God Of War: Ragnarok and Ghost Of Tsushima. They’re both really amazing games that allow you to go into Photo Mode, and I recommend playing it. Anyway, what I did was go into Photo Mode and fix the field of view, the focal length, the camera roll, and the filter. I cannot remember what number I had for each of those, but I believe the filter for GOW: Ragnarok was either Cool or Atreus. But, if I were there in person taking the picture, I would have the shutter speed low at 1/20 or 1/15 and keep very still to have the picture come out as it did. Same with the picture of the samurai, except he is posing and staying still, while the background is moving. For the Motion Blur, I took one picture at school and the other two at a Flee Market in Lindsey. For the one at school, I had the shutter speed low at 1/20 and I was waiting for my friend to pass by while he was running at a certain distance where I could take the picture. For the other two, one of them was on the way to the flea market. This one was pretty easy because I was lying against the seat making me keep still. For the last one, I had my baby brother hold the toy, which was very difficult since he was moving a lot, but, I took the picture just in time where he was staying still.
