The Bethadilly 52 Week 5 – Exposure

January 31, 2017

exposure. it is something that is a little tricky to master when just beginning your journey with photography, but over time it is something that you will effortlessly think about when you pick up your camera. as i picked up my camera for week 5 of the bethadilly 52, i kept exposure in mind. when i think about exposure, i think about having an image that is well balanced in light but also captures important detail. for my photo this week, my dog was sleeping in our bed and i quickly, yet quietly, went to find my camera to capture this sweet moment. because this photo is happy and fun, i knew i wanted a brighter exposure. but i was also careful not to go too bright because i wanted to still capture the wrinkles in the bedsheets and the texture of his soft fur. thank goodness this little guy is used to the sound of my shutter clicking and i was able to take this photo without disturbing him in the slightest. because i used my wide angle lens, i was able to shoot from above effortlessly with my feet planted on the ground.
