How The Aperture Works

A Simple experiment to see how the aperture in photography Works

 If you need and wear glasses, perfect! If you have perfect vision, it probably won't work! 

Here are the steps to take:

0) Take your glasses off.

1) Lightly, pinch your thumb and fore-finger together and do the same on the other hand.

2) Touch the four digits together so-that you create a small square hole.

3) With good lighting, bring the hole towards one eye while looking at something blured.

4) While looking through the hole, squeeze your digits tighter then looser to make the hole smaller and larger.

5) Notice that the fuzzy or blured object, or letters, or whatever else you are looking at gets clearer and then fuzzier.

That is an aperture in action!

Recent Training Test Shoot

A big thanks to Jess for coming in and helping me train some of my photographers. We went through quite a lot of technical stuff, lighting, posing, model connection with the camera and although Jess did
not understand some of the tech stuff she certainly knew how to pose. Also found a few old pallets outside the back of the studio and transformed the studio to a grunge urban look.  Hope you like the results.
