Shutter Speed Assignment.

This is one of my first assignments from uni but I haven't actually blogged it yet, partly because I've simply forgot about it as an assignment and also I've been wanting to get to know my camera a bit more and how to get the right results.

The following images are results from today, trying different shutter speeds and aperture;

f/7.1  1.6sec. ISO-100

f/9  2.5sec. ISO-100

f/10  3sec. ISO-100

f/13  5sec. ISO-100

f/16  8sec. ISO-100

These photos were taken local to me, it's known as Gorton Falls. There is a reservoir just on the other side of the brook where this is located and there's a maze of underground chambers, tunnels and drains and this is where the syphon empties.

These following couple of images are from a night time shoot I tried a few weeks ago using a long shutter speed...

f/3.5  8sec. ISO-200

This first image is over exposed due having my aperture on a wide setting..

f/9  13sec. ISO-200

Once I'd changed my aperture setting the result came out just fine.

f/11  13sec. ISO-200

I really enjoy the results that can be achieved from long exposures, I just need to find someone willing to come out after dark with me and have a proper go at it. I really want to try it out in Manchester City Centre sometime soon.

Here's a couple of images that are really inspiring and absolutely amazing!! =)

 This lighthouse image is amazing!

 With Bonfire night coming up soon I'd like to give this a try.

That's all from me for now but I'll be back soon...
