1. What is aperture and how does it affect the final photo?

 Aperture is the whole in the lens through which light travels into the camera body
and onto the camera sensor. Aperture controls the amount of light passing through
the lens of the camera. Aperture is expressed as f-stops in photography. F-stops
describes how open or close the aperture is. The smaller the aperture, the smaller
the depth of the field while the larger the aperture, the greater the depth of the
field.
 The aperture affects the final photo by showing how much of the photograph is
revealed or hid. The aperture determines how deep or shallow the depth of filed of
a photograph is. For example, on shooting portraits, the attention could be focused
on the object when having shallow depth of field while having deep shallow field
provides focus on every object on the captured image.

2. What is the relationship of exposure, aperture, and shutter speed? Explain briefly.
 Exposure means how much light is captured on an image.
 Aperture is the size of a whole where the light enters through the lens of the
camera and by changing this, it specifies how much objects stays in focus.
 Shutter speed is the measured time of image and the moment between the opening
and closing of a camera shutter.
 Overall, the said camera settings should be kept balanced to create a great
photograph as it comes together to emphasize an aesthetic and create a style of an
image.

3. What kind of effect does color tint filter adds to a raw photo? Do you think this is
necessary? Explain.
 Color tint filter enhances the photo. It adjusts the natural color of the image to its
desired color outcome of the image. For instance, it creates a dramatic or
cinematic effect by adjusting the tint of the color.
 I think that color tint filter is necessary to enhance the color of an image or
photograph. It makes an image much better by providing the right contrast of the
colors, controlling the light exposure, and minimizes glare and reflections capture
by the camera.
