Aperture - Photographing in Bright Sunlight.

Aperture is great if you can control it. Remember, bigger the number, smaller the opening. This Fstop control is great for photographing in bright sunny conditions. See the Aperture Tutorials here.. http://laymanphoto.blogspot.com/2011/07/aperture-ii.html



Here are examples of aperture control in the images below. Settings are listed.

Verbena Flowers

F11
1/125 shutter

F18

125 ISO,

I decided to pop the red from the background. In doing this, I needed to change my aperture from F11 to F18.

 

 

Pansies

F14

1/125 Shutter

125 ISO

I love the rich color, so since the flower was backlit, I decided, I needed to control that.

 

Another View , same set up as photo above.

 

 I then decided to brighten the hue of the purple by allowing the sun to continue to back light the flower but I opened up my aperture.
