Thank you, Joe, for the color explosion of last week's challenge and, Larry, thanks for another "free Sunday" .

I don't recall a challenge totally devoted to f/stops, (Aperture). Using "Aperture mode" might be the easier way to capture f/ stops in this range for this challenge. The purpose? identify situations and stops in which your camera operates best, review the effects of aperture on DOF (depth of field) and just have fun. When going through your archives, you might also discover as I did, the f/stops you tend to use most often. These turned out to be ones I use most (I didn't know that when I selected the topic). I am aware there are many factors such as ISO, shutter speed, available light, focal length etc that affect f/ stop choice.

Here are some standard f/stops: 1.4 (widest opening), 1.8 (or 2), 2.8, 4, 5.6, 8, 11, 16, 22, 32, 45. Most cameras can set half stops.

Please post your f/stop along with your image.

I had to lie on my stomach to get this shot of a black snake crawling across our driveway, a rather uncomfortable position!

Thank you soooo much, Pat. Truly glad
you liked these, but I have to tell you,
if I to had take care of the flowers, the
images would really suck...lol


Maybe you and gardener Leek can strike a deal! One that involves gardening tips and resulting images.

I really, really love this shot, Sue! You did
exactly what was needed to truly capture
this beautiful creature.

I always try to get as low as possible with
most of my photography, but I'm finding
it more and more difficult to do....sigh.


Down is one thing, back up is another - do it once and you've met a daily workout requirement.

Pat she ordered a red dress, when she got it, it wasn't red. No time to reorder had to select something different. And where they wanted pic taken was white background. OMG


OK now I get it! What a challenge but you did well. You could "colorize" the dress for her after the fact.
