TIPS 馃摳: Camera Basics - Aperture
Welcome to part three of the monthly tips article! This month we will be looking at the basics of a camera and we will continue with the aperture.聽
The aperture of a camera is a crucial setting that controls the amount of light that reaches the image sensor. It is indicated by an aperture symbol (e.g. f/2.8, f/4, f/8, etc.) and is one of the three main factors that influence the exposure of an image, along with ISO sensitivity and shutter speed.
The aperture is represented by a series of numbers such as f/1.4, f/2.8, f/4, f/5.6 etc., where a smaller number means a larger aperture. A large aperture (e.g. f/1.4) lets in a lot of light and results in a shallow depth of field. This means that the main subject is sharp, while the background or foreground is blurred. This effect is often used for portraits or artistic shots to make the subject stand out from the background.
On the other hand, a small aperture (e.g. f/16) lets in less light and creates a greater depth of field. This means that both the subject and the background are sharp. Small apertures are often used in landscape photography to achieve a clear focus from foreground to background.
The depth of field created by a large aperture is often referred to as "bokeh". Bokeh refers to the aesthetic quality effect in the out-of-focus area of an image. The shape of the bokeh depends on the shape and number of aperture blades in the lens design. Round or hexagonal aperture blades typically produce soft, pleasing bokeh, while multi-edged shapes can result in irregular bokeh.
Overall, control over the aperture opening allows the photographer to not only control the exposure, but also to creatively shape the image by controlling the depth of field and the aesthetics of the bokeh. It is important to use the aperture selection consciously in order to achieve the desired photographic results.

Forest dweller
It's a beautiful day out today after lots of rain and wind for over a week.
I had built these mushrooms for another project that I ended up abandoning so this was a nice way to spruce up a minifig portrait with more LEGO to make it stand out.

Add one cup of flour.
Having a fun time taking photos prompted by custom printed parts. I usually approach coming up with concepts around a custom character I designed but this is a refreshing change.
