Week 1 Assignment Due Week 2

You must expose at least one roll of film (Ilford HP 5, 400 ISO 36 exp). The subject is entirely up to you, but you should photograph in daylight and bracket at each available f-stop on your lens

For every composition you create, you will make three exposures. 
THE APERTURE WILL REMAIN CONSISTENT, THE SHUTTER SPEED WILL CHANGE.
Write Down your camera settings for every exposure made


Example: Expose for the suggested meter reading, then make two more exposures, the first 1 stop more (twice as much light) and the second 1 stop less (half the light)
If the suggested meter reading for a scene is f 4 at 1/60

1st exposure: f4 at 1/60
2nd exposure: f4 at 1/30
3rd exposure: f4 at 1/125



36 exposures
Scene 1 
Frame 1. Aperture: f 2.8 (or the largest available aperture) Shutter Speed: suggested exposure from light meter when set to appropriate f stop and ISO
           2. Aperture: same as above Shutter Speed: One stop more than suggested exposure
           3. Aperture: same as above. Shutter Speed: One stop less than suggested exposure
                      *The camera position must remain the same through these exposures
Scene 2
Frame 4. Aperture: f 4 (or second largest aperture)  Shutter Speed: suggested exposure from light meter

           5. Aperture: same as above Shutter Speed: One stop more than suggested exposure
           6. Aperture: same as above. Shutter Speed: One stop less than suggested exposure
                       *The camera position must remain the same through these exposures
Scene 3
Frame 7. Aperture: f 5.6 (or the third largest available aperture) Shutter Speed: suggested exposure from light meter when set to appropriate f stop and ISO
           8. Aperture: same as above Shutter Speed: One stop more than suggested exposure
           9. Aperture: same as above. Shutter Speed: One stop less than suggested exposure
                       *The camera position must remain the same through these exposures

***Continue this process until you reach f22, or the smallest f-stop available

Any remaining shots are free for experimentation.
