Understanding Aperture
The aperture of a photographic lens can be adjusted to control
the amount of light reaching the film or image sensor.
The aperture value needs to be adjusted in the following cases:
When you shoot against the light or when the background is
too bright.
When you shoot against a reflective natural background such
as at the beach or when skiing.
When the background is overly dark (for example, night
scenes).
