Because you can choose other setting thats can make the shot better and get the movement effect
4. What are three primary methods to compensate for long shutter speeds when there is too much light?
By using a small aperture and lowing your ISO and trying a Neutral Density Filter.

Still Life Preview
3 Items used in Still Life Art Work
-flowers
-books
-foods
A photographer must consider lighting and whether to shoot indoor or out doors. what re you going to shoot. consider the back ground and depth of the image with the subject. and not to over think it.
Use Aperture mode because it will create the depth in the image and sets the shutter speed to set how much light comes in to the picture.
Using a small aperture increases the exposure time
i can try and use apples and vases at home.
i will most likely use a dark back drop to bring out the colors in the image or even a bright back ground probable both to see which one comes out best.

First Six Weeks Free Shoot Images
What I really like about this picture is that her hair is really red when you see her and in the hair looks dark which brings out her eyes
I would take her in the light so that her hairs stands out more.
to focus on her face more, that getting her upper body.
What i like about this image is that it focuses on the the subject more and the patterns on the floor are blurred out.
i would try to have a different back ground so you can focus on the subject more
Learn to chose a better background
What i like about this image is that the colors combine well with each other .
Try to know get the extras in the back ground as much
i could cut out the building
I like how i got this picture off guard
i could of came down a little bit just to cut off the window in the back ground
i learned pictures off guard come out better
what I like about this picture is that you can tell that she is focused into what she is doing
I couldn't of came at a higher angle to see what she is doing and still get her face in the image.
I could of focused it a little more.
i like this picture because well she is my sister and she look very beautiful!
what i could of done different was get the rest of her head.
capture the whole subject.
what iw like about this picture is that i tried it at a different angle and how the back is blurred and just focused on the face.
i could have focused it more.
make sure it is clear.
