Update: Sick baby and Photography class

It has been very crazy here lately. My little guy got sick so on Valentines Day I took him to the doctors and they told me that he has RSV. My heart sank. RSV? How could that be? Some babies that get RSV go into the hospital. (Some have even died) I was so scared. I wanted to cry. The doctor told us that he would have to get a machine that would put medicine into his airway and lungs to open it up. We would have to do it ever 4-6 hours. All I could do was to hold my baby and make him as comfortable as possible. It is also extremely contagious so I needed to stay away from others (especially kids). Well everyday this past week he has been getting better and better. In a few days we will go back to the doctors and see how he is doing. I am so thankful that he hasn’t had to go into the hospital or anything worse.

I was able to go to my Photography class this week and turn in my homework. I have wanted to write a post especially about my photography class, but with my little guys so sick I didn’t have anytime. So in my photography class we talked about the Exposure Triangle. This includes ISO, Apertaure (or fstop), and Shutter. Our homework was to take 9 pictures total. The first 3 would have the ISO of 200, and fstop of 5.6, and then we would change the shutter. The first was with a shutter speed where the metering needle said it should be at. The second was under exposed two stops. The third was over exposed two stops. Here are my results.




Then the next 3 pictures had an ISO at 400, and fstop at 8.0. The shutter was then changed again on these three like the other three. The first in the middle, second underexposed, and the third over exposed.



Then the last 3 pictures had an ISO at 800 and fstop at 11. The shutter was changed again as the others were.



As you can tell there are all a little different. I had fun shooting these still life photos. As soon as I get a chance I will blog about what we went over in class this last week. :)
