in photograph #1 I made everything in focus including my subject and the back round.  I made my aperture small which made everything in focus.

in photograph #2 I set my camera to the setting TV which created the blur while the background was in balance.

in photograph #3 I got a close up picture which then made my iso high which created graininess.  Zooming in on the eye you can see the graininess of the picture.

in photograph #4 I achieved my selfie by putting the camera up on a step and setting my selftimer which gave me time to run down the stairs and pose for the selfie.  I programmed my camera before setting the timer to be focused and on the portrait setting.

White balance helps to ensure the colors in the photo are accurate.  The white balance lets the camera compensate - you point it at the surface that you see as white, and it adjusts the picture settings so that what you said was white, is actually displayed as white by the camera.  This way, no matter where you are shooting, colors will remain true even if the lighting conditions change.  The aperture is the device the determines how much light comes through the lens for a given amount of time. The shutter, meanwhile, is what determines how long that amount of light is allowed to hit the sensor.
