Another round of photographs with the settings I used. I almost always shoot them with manual exposure and focus. Settings will vary depending on depth of field I want and the pure creative value of the shot. I will put the exposure settings below for the 3 images I took today.
The bottom two images are of the same flower just different angles. The ideas is to show how reframing a shot can give a completely different look and feel.
50 mm (lens 18-55 zoom)
48 mm (lens 18-55 zoom)
34 mm (lens 18-55 zoom)
