Light Painting

Summary
This week, I decided to do light painting. When I saw the video in class I thought it would be hard to do as they did but it was, in fact, pretty easy. Although it was easy, it took a while to get one picture, let alone ten.

What I Learned
I learned, this week, that you shouldn't take pictures outside if its overcast because then you'll have to make your ISO high and that will result in a lot of digital noise. ISO, I think, of the exposure triangle is the most dangerous and photographers should always be watching for.

What I Learned
This photo shoot was a good and bad one for me. I thought I was easy enough since I had good options to chose from (colorful objects). It was also hard because I didn't have good lighting. Plus, I learned that having bad lighting can affect whether you have digital noise or not.
