Bracketing and Inspiration Images by Emma Ridley Intro to Digital Photography SS: 1/200, F5.6, IOS 400 One Stop Darker 1/125, F5.6, IOS 400, Camera Meter at Zero 1/80, F5.6, IOS 400, One Stop Brighter Question: What is bracketing and what setting did you manipulate on your camera, by what increments (in stops) in order to achieve it?

For my submission, I adjusted my shutter speed by three increments in order to achieve a true display of bracketing. Any other adjustment was too subtle to show up. Because this was shot during sundown, it was important to dramatically change the shutter speed in order to showcase bracketing.
