Introduction to photography
Exercise : 2 aperture

I was late in the previous lecture but at the end we were told to bring a camera with a manual mode and a tripod.
I heard that Mr Vinod shared some of the links and video about aperture.
I did search about aperture and also watched the links that Mr Vinod uploaded for us and slightly understood what aperture is.
When we talk about aperture we are actually talking  bout a hole behind the lens of our camera which gives us an ability to control the light entering  through the lens .
It also control the depth of field in our camera and the clarity.
_As the aperture number gets smaller the aperture opening larger and the image gets lighter
_A small aperture increases depth of field so foreground and background are sharp and a large aperture decreases depth of field so the background is soft.
