I was trying different things like messing with the ISO and the Shutter speed. Some pics turned out the way I wanted. LMK what you think.

Here I wanted the subject to be clear and the back ground to blur.


Same here


Here I wanted the figure in the back to be clear and the front to blur


Same here


In the water pics I left the shutter open for about 3 sec












again, went with the blur effect


Here I left the shutter at about 2 sec and paned.






And last just a pic of a lady I work with but I think it came out pretty good.


LMK what you guys think I am still pretty new to all this.

Getting better...

CBURKE

So if I am reading this right....the f-stop: the smaller the f-stop # the more blur you are going to get behind the subject?

Thanks guys.

HoosierDaddy

Exactly correct. The lower the f-stop the more blurred background. The higher the more detail is shown.

Higher f-stops mean longer shutter speeds.

CBURKE

So when I go to a higher f-stop I need to up the shutter? But the ISO can stay the same if I am in a well lit area, right?


I can go with a really low shutter speed and a really low F-stop and that should blur it pretty good, if I have the right light........

You're on the right track, yes. When you've mastered that you should read up on white balance... it looks like a fluorescent white balance would've have helped you get the right colors in the last few.
