1.
 Unfortunately I had to take photos during two different days and one day was cloudy while the second day was bright and sunny. So during the photo shoots it was easier with an ISO of 400.

2. The second best photo i took was the last one with the ISO of 3200.

3. In my head changing the settings to create a good photo is very easy because its a simple thing to do. Unfortunately it was hard for me to actually put that to work and was not able to get all the photo clear and good.

4. I Learned a good amount of things from this to put on my actual portrait, such as putting the settings correctly to take a good and clear photo.
