I experimented with the Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO, and depth of field in these photos.

  1. I think you are improving a lot, Lena. Good job!
    Please take advantage of the softwares such as Photoshop to make small adjustments to make the composition better (for instance, cropping and tilting, etc.).

  2. The focus in the image of the berries looks awesome! In some of the others, the angles from which you take the shot could be improved to show more consideration of what you want within the frame. Good amount of light- the exposure time works well.

  3. I really like the use of the low aperture with the ivy. Well executed.

  4. I agree with Ali that the berries photo's focus and composition is really strong. The framing and composition of the last photo of the AC and ivy is really cool because of the movement it creates within the photo.

  5. I love the 5th shot (with the berries) because of the contrast in shapes -- round berries versus vertical, long sharp leaves. The depth of field in that shot is also great.

  6. Great experimentation happening here - The one of the berries effectively uses the rule of thirds. Good comments from others on things to think about / that have worked in images. The one of the berries shows that by moving in very close to your subject you also significantly decrease your depth of field. (aperture, distance and lens as three factors in depth of field). I would like to see you experiment with shutter speed in an intentional way - using slow shutter speed to show blurring/motion and faster shutter speed to capture motion without blur.
    Also with depth of field I would like to see some shots with very high f stops (small aperture) and the inverse.
