✨today we’re talking about - APERTURE✨ 

aperture = the opening in your lens which controls how much light hits the sensor (measured in F stops) 

the larger aperture (smaller F number- i just want to have a talk with the person who decided this LOL) allows more light to hit the sensor and creates a shallow depth of field 

the smaller aperture limits the amount of light that hits the sensor which creates a deep depth of field 

i like to remember this by using the pool analogy! *refer to slide 3* 

and then i threw in some examples of a larger and a smaller aperture!!! 

follow to continue to learn as I learn <3
