I found that a large aperture will open a lot of light, making the photo brighter. And closing the aperture does the opposite; making the photo darker. Shutter speed can also affect the amount f light that comes into the camera by controlling how long the camera's shutter remains open.

Depths of Fields

 low depth

 high depth

  How did changing the aperture and shutter effect the depth of field?  Do you find capturing one depth easier?

        At first it was hard to understand but once I understood that in order to get a high depth of field, the aperture size has to decrease, and for a lower depth of field you have to reduce the shutter speed. the aperture of a camera is the little opening and closing door on the lens. And shutter speed is just the amount time that the little opening/ door like closing on the lens is open. I found it easier to capture low depth on my phone and camera because on my phone i could just tap the object and the background wil blur, and on the camera I just have to point and focus at the object.
