I like this Dave –

Not really sure why, it’s a different kinda shot… especially like the vivid red clothes-line…
Nice one :)

Thanks Vanessa.
I had intended to delete this image in camera after taking it but seeing it on the computer screen I’m glad I didn’t, but still don’t know why I’m attracted to it.

I am not experienced enough yet but why and what advantage was using a low aperture? f/22.
Great photo.

Thanks Punk Rock.
At the time I was just playing around with fill flash before going out to shoot other things.
I took a few shots at different setting but I liked the look of this one. Never intended it to be anything more than a settings experiment.
I deleted the others so cannot show you the difference between them.

Why not try it out yourself? Set up your tripod and take 10 shots of something at different aperatures. Experimenting is the best way to get that lightbulb moment where things begin to make sense.
