anita tries a macro shot :unsure:

anita thinks maybe light would be nice :huh:

but it's still a beautiful coin :wub:

yeah, more light would help. you'll get a higher aperature and give yourself more depth of field too.

but the instructions said to not use the flash...when i did it was all washed out....i tried to use the room light but it was above and behind me :(

what's aperature and depth of field?

[BroChaos Veteran]

yeah, direct flash is not recommended with macro photography since you are way too close to the subject. it's best to bounce the flash

off of a bounce card or wall/ceiling. the best solution is daylight though :)

2 things make up an exposure. shutter speed and aperature. you prolly know what shutter speed is, it's how long the shutter is open.

aperature is how wide it opens. when the shutter is open wide, you have a very narrow depth of field, ie, only the point you focused

on is in focus. when the shutter is narrow, or stopped down, you have a greater depth of field, and not only is the point you focused on

in focus, but points in front of it and behind it are also still in focus.

So, I went to my school 10:00 A.M. in the morning to help make the apple pies. We are going to sell them on Sunday. Everyone sold a ticket to someone, so they have to pick up the pie tomorrow or the seller delivers the pie to the buyer. This money goes towards our Robotics trips to different states. We compete against other schools by completing an objective with a custom built robot. We made 350 pies today. :D They sell for about $12.00 each. We are short about $1000 dollars, so some families are making desserts to auction off on Sunday for some extra money.
