What is important about focus? How do you get good focus in a digital slr photograph?
Focus is important so that the picture isn't blurry and so the main object(s) is clearly visible.

 Explain in your own words what depth of field is and why it's important to understand when shooting photos.
Depth of field is when the camera can focus on an object at a certain distance while another object at another distance is blurry because of the depth.

 What is the exposure triangle and why is it important to making quality photos?
The three essentials about the exposure triangle are IOS, Shutter Speed and Aperture and it's used to equal out a photo. Without having all of these concepts even, it will off set the picture and it won't look as good.

 What are the 5 compositional techniques we use in photography? EXPLAIN
== Which lighting techniques come from natural sources and which come from artificial? When would you use one vs another? == The sun is an example of natural light, while florescent lights such as light bulbs, are a source of artificial lighting. When you need consistant light, artificial light is better, as oppose to sunlight, because there are clouds that could affect the picture. Also, during the night there is no natural light. == In terms of lighting what kinds of light sources do you already have experience shooting photos with? Explain. == Sunlight, indoor lighting and flash off of a camera. When we take amateur pictures outside with our phones we use the sun light, just like inside we use the natural light that the lightbulbs give us.
 * Rule of Thirds - the purpose is to have an object at every intersecting point in the picture to keep it more interesting.
 * Framing - using elements in the shot to frame the picture.
 * Fill the Frame - to have the least amount of negative space as you can and zoom in so you can see detail.
 * Leveled Horizon - keep the camera still to form a straight across horizon line so the photo comes off calm and peaceful.
 * Leading Lines - these lines lead peoples eyes into the main subject of the picture and create an interesting look.
