My Top 4 Best Photos-

 











My Reaction-
      I never pictured 9/11 to really look like that, I mean it must have been so brutal and scarring to those poor victims... They truly suffered, and the reality these pictures showed me, makes me feel really sorry and sad for the victims.  Imagining if that was my mom or my grandmother clinging outside of the building's window, or even jumping from that window makes me feel grateful that I have them in my life, but also sad that others don't have that joy.  So I dedicate my prayers to the victims of 9/11.  God Bless Them...

1.)  The optical illusion that the ''camera obscura'' gives is made out of shadows which are turned around when they pass through the tiny hole.
2.)  Isaac Newton and Christian Huygens invented high quality glass lenses, which brought man closer to the modern day camera.
3.)  The modern camera invented by Niepce, required a dark box, a glass lens, and film.
4.)  The modern day camera still requires a lens, dark box, and film.
5.)  To capture an image with a digital camera, first, the camera passes light through the lens, then it goes into the camera, and lastly, exposes the film.
6.)  The difference between the program mode and the auto mode would be, when using program mode, you just point and shoot, but you also have the option of controlling the flash and even some other camera settings.  While using the auto mode, the camera will automatically and completely control the flash and exposure.
7.)  The portrait mode is used for blurring out the background from your object. The camera will use the fastest available laens to make it work.
8.)  The sports setting is used to freeze motion. to work, the camera will use the highest shutter speed possible.
9.)  When doing a half press on the button, it will focus the picture and the camera's response time will be quicker.
10.)    This symbol represents no flash.  You should probably only use this when there is no natural light.
11.)    This symbol represents auto flash.  The camera will use this when it thinks you need more light.
12.)  If there is too much light, your picture will appear washed out.
13.)  If there is not enough light, your picture will be to dark.
14.)  A stop is a relative change in the brightness of the light.
15.)  The new planet would be one stop brighter.
16.)  The new planet would be two stops brighter, if there were four Suns.
17.)  With a longer shutter speed, there is more light.
18.)  With a shorter shutter speed, there is less light..
19.)The aperture controls larger openings.
20.)  You can increase the amount of light by making a larger opening.
