Had some wood on photo table and realized it made a good background for my chain!

If you want to learn aperture and how it effects the image, try this little exercise.

Put camera on table.

Put yardstick in front of lens angled slightly so it goes across the field of view.

Set aperture to smallest number

Focus on closest part of yardstick possible.

Take picture.

Without changing focus point take a new image for every single fStop.

Do not review images until you do the largest number fStop. Then review what has changed in each image and see the progression.

Thanks, that was required of me 30+ years ago when I bought my first camera. Dude at the store was inspiring and teaching me all the simple stuff.

Back then it coast almost four hours work to buy a roll of film and have it processed. The equivalent of that today? $48 for my kid the same age today as I was them. You can do it free!

rocknrob: That had better be a good sandwich for that price, otherwise you're better off making one yourself. Nov 10, 2024 21:10:43 GMT -5

amygdule: I like my sandwich made by a talented artist that deserves a Tip...Thank You Nov 11, 2024 7:12:10 GMT -5 *

rocknrob: I make my own sandwiches and yet I never tip myself... OMG I'm the a@@hole! Nov 11, 2024 11:29:51 GMT -5

amygdule: Her sandwich taste better... Nov 11, 2024 17:07:29 GMT -5 *

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
