Shutter Mike Photography

I went on a photo excursion to the relatively new Tempe Center for the Arts the other day.  I had never been before and love the architecture of this building.  I did not get a chance to go inside, but if it is half as impressive as the outside I will look forward to getting a chance to see it.  I am going to post my general photographs of the building and grounds soon.  But in the mean time I played around with focal length in one series of photos just for the sake of comparing what I got by standing in one spot and adjusting the focal settings.

I set the camera on aperture priority and kept the aperture constant at f/13.  Since the camera was setting the shutter speed it varied slightly but only between 1/30 and 1/40 second.  Then I focused on one spot and shot a series of photographs using 5 of the various focal lengths of m my 18-70mm lens.  Here are the results.

Focal Length = 18 mm

Focal Length = 26 mm

Focal Length = 35 mm

Focal Length = 50 mm

Focal Length = 70 mm
