National Geographic Warm-up
I would take a nice photo of a beautiful cat lounging around or a great shot of a beautiful cat's eye.

40 greatest photos taken and Touching People
1. I think it was a very good project and it worked better than I expected.
2. I would hesitate at first but I would think about it and if the other person agrees to it then I would. If the person doesn't agree to it and it doesn't seem harmless then I would persuade the person to do it.
3. An unusual photo shoot to do would be to have two people stare at each other and then taking different shots from different angles.
4. The photos are interesting and they are pretty intriguing to look at. I love the concept of people touching because the name is misleading; however, it's talking about something so simple though.

Camera History and Information
1. Inside a completely dark room, a tiny hole is created in one wall.
Through the hole light is focused, and the outside scene is projected
(upside down) on the opposite wall.
2. When Isaac Newton and Christian Huygens perfected the understanding of optics and the process of making high quality glass lenses.
3. He added *film* to create the first successful photograph, and the modern camera was born.
4. They both have a glass lens, a dark box and use film.
5. Digital cameras capture the images with an electronic sensor called a CCD.
6.the camera will completely control flash and exposure. On most cameras this is labelled "auto", on others simply "A". Some cameras only have (P)rogram.
-- automatic-assist, just point and shoot. Unlike full auto mode, you can usually control flash and a few other camera settings.
7.-- To attempt to blur out the background, camera will try to use the fastest available lens setting (aperture).
8. To freeze motion, camera will use the highest shutter speed possible.
9. Faster camera response time, more control over focus, and encourages better composition.
10. Disabled Flash/no flash. There are many cases where you may not want flash at all. The mood of the photograph can sometimes be more dramatic when the natural light is used.
11. Auto-Flash. In most camera modes, Auto-flash is enabled by default and will automatically fire if the camera thinks it needs more light.
12. Too much light and the picture will be washed out.
13. Not enough light and the picture will be too dark.
14. A "stop" is a relative measurement of light.
15. 1 "stop"
16. 2 "stop"
17. Longer shutter speeds = more light
18. Shorter shutter speeds = less light
19. Before light reaches film, it must pass through an opening called an "Aperture". The aperture is like a pupil. You can control the aperture by setting the "Aperture Opening", also known as an F-Stop.
20. Larger openings = more light

Camera
Electromagnetic Spectrum:the range of wavelengths or frequencies over which electromagnetic radiation extends
Flash Memory:memory that retains data in the absence of a power supply
Image Sensor:a device that converts an optical image to an electric signal
Aperture:a space through which light passes in an optical or photographic instrument, esp. the variable opening by which light enters a camera
Shutter:each of a pair of hinged panels fixed inside or outside a window that can be closed for security or privacy or to keep out light
Exposure:the state of being exposed to contact with something
Depth of field:the distance between the nearest and the furthest objects that give an image judged to be in focus in a camera
F-stop:the ratio of focal length to the effective diameter of a lens; also called f-number, it represents how much light is able to pass through the lens
Focal Length:the distance between the center of a lens or curved mirror and its focus
