A year of assignments exploring exposure, light and the creative possibilities of shutter speed, aperture and ISO.

Ammonite Press · 2021

52 Assignments: Photographic Exposure uses a year of practical briefs to move exposure away from being simply a technical exercise.

The assignments explore the relationship between shutter speed, aperture and ISO while using light to create mood, freeze or blur action, make silhouettes and solve a variety of real photographic situations.

The emphasis is on understanding exposure well enough to make deliberate creative choices — not simply arriving at a technically acceptable brightness.
