Day 5 of Photoworks was quite enlightening. I got to discover a whole new perspective on exposure, knowing what the light meter is telling you and actually using it to create the shot you want to take. After reading countless websites about the topic, there’s really nothing new discussed on the technical side. But what our instructor Leo Castillo brings to the table is a better and easier way to understand how things work and how to use them to your liking.
The second half of the session dealt with emphasizing subjects. Apparently, there are several different ways of establishing emphasis and you can mix and match depending on what you want to create. I’m starting to really like photography and might actually decide to make it a serious hobby and I’m really glad I took this class.
Hopefully I get to turn in something nice for the final photo project.
