Shutter and Aperture

Shoot a series of photos that demonstrate that you are in control of your camera's manual settings.
First pick a subject that is moving quickly. Shoot it using a range of shutter speeds to show blur and frozen action.
Next, pick a subject or scene that is visually deep or repetitive. Think of a row of houses or parked cars. Shoot the subject with a range of apertures to illustrate deep and shallow depth of field.
Remember equivalent exposures. For example, when you change the shutter, you must change the aperture to create a correct exposure.
