So let's have an aperture activity. Now, what we want to do is we want to take an image, a portrait of someone with a wide aperture. Now you're probably going to need to have a prime lens and we'll talk about them later. But budget prime lens is on the Canon for instance, you can buy what's called the nifty 50 for less than 100 pounds, so which is very cheap Roland, but take an image with a wide aperture of a person and then blur the background with that you will need to shoot quite fast in terms of aperture. So that means that we say fast we need you to open stops up. So you'll probably need to shoot about f2 minimum.

The other activity is then going to take the image of a landscape even if it's a street where you live, it doesn't matter. To focus or further away, and like we mentioned earlier, stick on a tripod on something stable and set the aperture to F 22. Now you don't need a prime lens for that a zoom lens or a kit lens will do that for you. A kit lenses, the lens typically that comes with a camera kit, we're going to take that picture, and we want to get everything in focus. So that's the activities they're using the aperture. So we want narrow aperture, but this time we're trying to get in front of focus on the merit now, but when was on the previous activity, we want just the subject to focus and the stuff in the background to blur.

So now we're going to use a wide aperture and hopefully you can see that we're actually using aperture to create artistic effects.
