This assignment was about creating a mood using the manual camera settings (ISO, aperture, and shutter speed). The image that was the hardest to capture was the "Heavenly and cheerful" (top right), because I spent some time trying to capture a lens flare (which I naturally did accidentally in several of my other photos), but eventually gave up.
My favorite of the four photos is my "Dark and Moody" (bottom left) mostly because it was a happy accident. I had been recently shooting directly into the sun, and didn't have time to change my settings before the kids were out of my sight. The resulting image looks as though they are walking at night under a street lamp, when in reality, they are in broad daylight.
I feel that the best-captured photo (in terms of saturation, focus, and lighting) was my "Warm and Inviting" (top left).
I now feel much more comfortable using these manual settings, and I am sure I will grow more confident and deft the more I use them.
