EC: AUTUMN LEAVES (One Class Manual Setting Practice)

DIRECTIONS. 
*Set the camera to M (Manual)
**Make 10+ images

TO DO:
1. Set the ISO appropriately.
2. Set the WB appropriately.
3. Open the APERTURE wide (small f-stop number) if you want an out of focus background.
4. Set the SHUTTER SPEED accordingly.
5. Develop in Photoshop and/or Lightroom (in color)
6. Post the final images to your site in a post titled 'AUTUMN LEAVES'


PHOTOGRAPHING.
How you arrange and compose your photos is open to your interpretation, but clever is better.
You may go about the project as a straight-forward landscape project. ...
Or, you could collect leaf textures using macro settings. 
You can approach it like a still life project: arranging the leaves as objects. 
Or you could think conceptually, and approach it like the environmental artist Andy Goldsworthy (click here for Andy).


REMEMBER:

*When the APERTURE changes, so must the SHUTTER SPEED and/or the ISO.
