- Page 90 Enhancing highlights and shadows
- During this shoot, I had more light on the top half, and kept the bottom half in a little more shadows. I thought this worked well, because the lightly gradually increased the more vibrant the colors became.

- In the background of this picture there was a lot of unnecessary things. They ended up drawing the viewers eyes away from the actual subject. I had to remove those distracting things to get the shot I wanted. Some of them I just cut out of the shot, and others, I had to physically take away for this shoot.

- It was on accident, that I stumbled upon this photo shoot. I was fortunate enough to already have had my camera settings perfect for this shot. I was close enough to the wasp's nest to get clear photographs, but not too close that I did not need to use my zoom lens. I could have gotten closer, but I thought it was safer just to zoom in a little. I did not take many pictures of this, but thankfully was able to capture a few very clear detailed images.

- Page 113 Low ISO-speed
- This photograph was taken with the ISO-speed set to 80. Because of how low it was, I tucked my arms into my sides to help steady my camera. I did not mind that the branch in the front is not in focus, because I was trying to focus on more things further back and higher up in the photograph.

- In the distance
- Page 120 Don't always shoot wide angles
- For this photo shoot I took multiple pictures using both landscape and portrait layouts. I found I liked the portrait angled photographs better. It made the photographs slightly more ominous with the trees creating shade in the left side of the photograph which was closest to me. The portions of the photograph that were actually "in the distance" were bathed in bright sunlight. I thought this created a contrast throughout the photograph.

- I thought this was a relatively interesting shot. I was trying to capture how something could be hidden in between these two sides, or what could be hidden on the other side. With the help of the natural lighting, which was shining directly on to me, I was able to get a good few through the lattice. Using the macro lens, and just slight zoom I was able to keep in focus what I needed to. I actually managed to focus on more than I had originally anticipated.

- I had a lot of difficulty getting my photographs in focus. There was a lot of wind, which kept blowing everything around. I was fortunate enough to get a few clear shots during the times when the wind subsided slightly. Aside from the wind, it was still challenging getting clear pictures because of how close I had to be to my subject matter.
