I loved the way the light scattered, dancing across the walls, ceiling, and tiled floor. The picture has an almost eerie, foreboding feel to it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The settings on Johnson\u2019s Samsung S3 were: aperture priority, average metering, 1\/15 sec shutter speed; f\/2.6 aperture; ISO 800, 3.7 mm focal length.
