For this exercise, you were asked to produce 5-6 photographs of any subjects. Each subject, you were asked to make five exposures of. You firstly needed to find out what the average exposure for the subject was. You then arranged the exposures around this. The first should be one stop darker, the second should be half a stop darker, then the third image should be the average image, the fourth should be half a stop lighter and the fifth should be one stop lighter.
You were then advised to look at the average exposure image and see if it was as you would expect. You then had to look at the other exposed images to see if any others were acceptable.
One: Dark to Light
I am pleased with the average exposed image as it does show how the plant looked when I photographed it, however, I am pleased with the image which was taken a half stop darker. I believe that the half stop darker image shows a lot more detail on the flower itself than with the average exposed image.
Two: Dark to Light
I am also pleased with the average exposed image as it does show how the tree looked when I photographed it, however, I am pleased with the image which was taken a half stop darker and one stop darker. I believe that the half stop darker image shows a lot more detail on the tree however, I also like the one stop darker image as well.
Three: Dark to Light
Im pleased with the average exposed image as it does show how the plant looked when I photographed it, however, I am pleased with the image which was taken a half stop darker. I believe that the half stop darker image shows a lot more detail on the plant and the surrounding leaves.
Four: Dark to Light
Im pleased with the average exposed image, however, I am pleased with the image which was taken a half stop lighter.
