The six weeks project that I was assigned to do was to take five different pictures with different aperture settings. This sounded pretty easy, but when I started to shoot, it proved to be kinda difficult. It was really difficult to get my fourth picture exposed just because usually when I have my shutter speed set, I change my aperture to get the picture exposed right. Due to the fact that it was dark in the room, it was really difficult to get it exposed right without changing the aperture. So what I did was bring my ISO up and then I had to hold the camera extremely still. All the other pictures weren't that difficult to shoot just because of the lighting that I had. Overall, I think that changing the aperture in a picture can help bring out the focus of the photo and it gives the photographer creative control over the image.
