Basics 9/5

Today i have learned the "basic" photography techniques which were anything but basic to me. At first i was terrified, and felt so lost and confused but after hearing the reassuring words "you will all suck at this unless you continue to practice" i felt some sort of relief. Realistically i learned how to put a camera together in under 15 seconds as well as the meaning of ISO, Aperture, and Shutter speed. Once we broke down the connection between the three everything started to clear up and i actually understood what i was being asked to do. Your ISO is determined by your surrounding settings, for example, inside your ISO should be at least 800, and outside your ISO should be around 100 to 200. Your aperture is determined by your depth of field or how many people are in your shot. Shutter speed is really the only thing you have to determine. You must align the  small line inside the camera with the "home plate"in order to have an accurate picture. Im very eager to learn more tomorrow so that i can better my skills.
