Autofocus: Auto focus is a setting on the camera, to capture moving animals, objects, people, cars, landscapes, etc. to get autofocus, first press the shutter button. when you press it down halfway and theres a stop halfway when you press it will try to calculate focus. once it gets it it will beep at you, indicating it is on autofocus. You can capture many moving objects with autofocus. Digital cameras capture images electronically. unlike traditional cameras which use chemical film. The first self-contained camera was invented in 1974-5 by Steve sasson. he was working for KoDak at the time.

Pinhole camera: The pinhole camera is a fun thing to craft, and it is just like a camera. Pinhole cameras can make you see the world in a different way. for example, you can see upside down. You can take real pictures with it if you make the paper for it. You can make a pinhole camera really easily, by only these items. stiff black card. Paper templates, Glue and black tape, Scissors, craft knife and a metal ruler, Needle or dressmakers pin, Cork and a pair of pliers, Sand paper, and velcro strips. You can watch a video on how to make one. A pinhole camera needs to be very dark and black usually to work. A pinhole camera is also called a pinhole camera because its camera hole is punctured with a pin.

Photography; Photography is a masterpiece that captures life, on a paper. Photography back in the day used to be really expensive because they had to use huge cameras to create photos. Photos used to be created with gelatin, silver, paint, etc. Photos got cheaper because they would take a actual photo, they add warm gelatin, and a piece of paper and smash it together. This creates a duplicate of the actual photo, but its not considered a photo after its print is on the paper. The technology for photos kept getting better, until it was quite cheap to make. Today, we use digital devices to capture digital photos, that have color, before there was no color but gray and black. and the photos can be deleted forever, unlike when paper was used. Technology has improved a lot, and it makes things easier for us.

Planets are part of our universe, and planets can be made up of rocks, gases, and aluminum etc. our solar system has 8 planets.

mercury, earth, venus, mars, jupiter, saturn, uranus, and neptune. Pluto used to be considered a planet, but now it is not. our home planet earth is unique for having liquid water on its surface and for supporting life. some elements of earth are: fire, water, wood, and metal. there are more stars in the universe than grains of all sand on all beaches. stars are also known as angels. God has created a wonderful universe and we are thankful for it.

In rocket science, you can learn much about rockets. how they work, how they are built, and how they are controlled. you can also make your own rocket from home materials, to see how it works. you can make one with a balloon, a straw, tape, and string. all you have to do is tie the string to a tree branch, insert the string into a straw, tape the balloon to the straw, do not tie the balloon, and let go. it will show how a rocket can take off into space. Armstrong was the first person to be in space, with some others. a dog was once also sent into space, before humans to see how it would do. thats my assignment

The universe is a giant place, and has many planets. The earth is round, and 7-8 billion people live on it. as well as about 1-2 billion animal species. Our planet was created by god and the earth is beautiful. the sun gives us daytime, the moon gives us night. There are trillions of stars in space, known as angels. Some planets are; Earth, moon, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Uranus, Venus, Mars, and Neptune. Pluto was known as a planet, but is not now. If you want to go to space, you need: a purpose, a goal, and you need scientific and technical knowledge to build a space craft to go to space. we also have a milky way and the length of the universe is giant and unknown.

Shading and colors: Shading can be difficult, but is easy to learn. you need at least 3 different values, if your sketching. black, dark grey, and light grey. You can smudge it to make it more realistic, usually with a smudge stick or paper towel. some people may use their finger to smudge it. Value of colors; There is no such thing as a ”dark red” its a different tone, and you use the 3 primary colors to darken the color, if you want to darken blue, add a bit of red. if you want to darken red, add a bit of red, if you want to darken yellow, add a little dark blue. now this does not really make the color darker, it makes a different tone. because the more you add, the different tone, and color. other colors can be discussed in another essay.

Art. Art is a masterpiece, and many people inspire people to make art. art can be made into real life things, and art can be popular, such as the Mona Lisa, took 18 years to make. Many different types of art are i will list some. Aztec, Abstract, 3D, 2D, 4D, Animals, realism, History, Life,sketch, Fiction, etc. Now you may ask, why should i care about art? well, art is important because it can describe many feelings, and history of our world. There are thousands of artists out there, and Millions of unique art. Art can be made with pencils, paint, crayons, etc, Smudge sticks can help shade art by well, smudging the art. Art is a beautiful and creative thing in life, and that is my assignment about art.

Cooking: Cooking is a very important thing in life, and have made many many delightful dishes, there are many chefs and people make homemade food! there are many things you can cook with: fruits, veggies, breads, meats, plants, etc. many schools or home schools teach how to cook, just like mine. you can be very creative with cooking and invent new things, food homemade usually tastes better and is healthier then processed dishes that have more unhealthy sugars and others. making your own food homemade can be fun, and you need to make sure you get the right amount, otherwise sometimes it can taste bad. lots of things you can make homemade are: salads, pizzas, smoothies, sauces, fruit salads, sandwiches, treacle tarts, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, fries, steak, fried chicken, and many more! many people have created many delicious foods throughout the years, and many people are creative. that is my last assignment on cooking.

Spices and herbs: Spices are used in many foods and are very hot .many can be not too hot or extremely hot. spices mainly come from peppers while they can also be different things, Spices can be used for many dishes, Noodles, chips, meats, salads, etc. Herbs were used for medicines and healing wounds, though are still used today. almost any herb is great when chopped finely and can be used in dishes too, and are very good for you, Peppers are very good for you but some peppers will be extremely spicy. peppers are fruits because seasoning can be seeds, and peppers have seeds in them which means they are a fruit. Herbs were important back in the day and is still used today, for medicines and healing wounds. did i mention that? anyway. herbs and spices. that is my assignment
