Shutter Assignment - Linda M

ISO 200, shutter 1/40, f/6.3, 146 mm, spot meter, awb white balance, tripod. I was taking pics of the ground fountain and saw this guy taking a drink so  quick snapped without a thought to the settings. I like the water stop action. The histogram is even all the way across. Oh yes, I also had the polarized lens on.

  1. The side lighting illuminates the skin and hair texture nicely. Good choice of aperture. It would be an interesting study to dial in several wider apertures to see how more blur (bokea effect ) would have helped to emphasis the subject. How did the polarizer help the exposure in this image? What do you think about the blue shape on the right side?

  2. About the polarizer, the sun was coming from the west, as it was in the evening. Yes, i would have liked to try a wider ap if he had taken a longer drink. Thanks for the feedback.
