"Understanding Exposure" (Bryan Peterson)

"Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Peterson explains how photographers control the brightness and darkness of an image through three key settings: shutter speed, aperture, and ISO. Shutter speed determines how long the camera's sensor is exposed to light. Aperture controls the size of the lens opening, affecting light intake and depth of field. ISO adjusts the sensor's sensitivity to light. By balancing these three elements, photographers can creatively capture images in various lighting conditions, ensuring proper exposure. The book simplifies these concepts, helping photographers make intentional choices to produce well-exposed, compelling photos.
