Bracketing

Here are the photos from my Bracketing series. I shot them with a Canon Rebel and an 18-55mm lens. All the photos are taken at a 55mm focal length. The camera's lens could not close down past a 5.6, so I compensated by shooting a 6.3 as my 5.6, and my 5.6 as a 4.

The metered photos got a bit overexposed towards the end of my f/stop cycle because the camera's shutter speed was not fast enough to compensate for the wide-open lens exposure. I tried my best to center the meter as much as I could, but it turned out to slowly overexpose as I opened the shutter. If my camera's shutter speed offered a faster option, it would have metered out better. Also, I could have opted to find another spot to shoot my photos that wasn't as brightly lit. Hindsight is always 20/20. Either way, I did understand the concept of the bracketing assignment, I just wasn't thinking  at the time to look for another area to shoot.
