changes, the brightness of your subject
will also change due to the auto exposure

bright things and the
border of dark things
end up colored.
This is not a fault. Devise a way to shoot,
such as changing the camera orientation,
so there is a smaller difference in
brightness. Switching to the Program AE
Auto mode and changing the aperture
limit may improve this.
