Bracketing assignment

1. Which setting worked the best? 

The setting of 1/30th of a second shutter speed and F5.6 worked the best in my opinion because theres not a lot of shadows and theres a clear picture
2. Which setting did not work at all?

The setting of 1/40th of a second and F5.6 did not work really well because its shadowy and has poor color and doesn't look too well. 

3. Did this exercise help you understand f/stops better? how?

 Yes, because I saw that as I changed the f stops the lowest f stop was brighter and the highest f/stop was darker.

​4. If you want to increase the depth of field in a scene and keep the same level of exposure, what are your options?

First you would have to change the shutter speed to change the depth of field and then you would have to change the f stop to keep the same level of exposure in the picture
