using manual camera settings

This picture was taken with a 5 second shutter speed and appature was automatic (the camera did the work with the shosen setting). There was very little ligh in the room to get a better picture with the light. with an f-stop of f/20.

this picture was taken on the setting Appiture Prioriy (Av) which means you set the appature and then the camera will automaticly ajust to the light. But with the camera being on a manual setting, you have to focus the camera your self. The can, cable tie, fense post look in focus and as the photograph goes on, behind them the photo gets blury.

Tom Jenkins: sports

Image analysis: This is a photograph of Johnny Wilkinson, this man is not big on celebrations but it shows that he does still care. When this photograph was taken the camera must have been on a manual setting so he could focus the camera himself. the aperture must have been small so quickly get the snap he needed fast with a good quality finish.

Interpretation of meaning: even though Johnny is not a celebratory man it show he knows where credits due. It's a subtle way of a celebration without rubbing it in the opposing teams face.

Image analysis: this image was taken up close to the model with a fast shutter speed again taken in a professional studio.
