Good Photography Tips 1

green tea


In this series of posts we offer some photography tips for taking great photos. Some basic knowledge of photography is assumed. We try to avoid photographic jargon as much as possible.

The first tip, there are 3 major areas that contribute to a great photo.

They are : exposure, focus and color.

1. Exposure - A big area to explore, but in the main, three big factors determine exposure, which is aperture (opening of the lens), shutter speed (speed of opening and closing of iris to allow light into the camera), and iso (sensitivity of film to light). In the context of digital cameras, iso is the gain or threshold that is determined by the camera. The higher the iso, the more digital noise will be introduced into the picture.

2. Focus - another big area, the major important factor to look out for is the aperture and depth of field. Depth of field determines which area of the photo to look sharp and which area to be out-of-focus.

5. Color - a major consideration, especially white balance. If the white balance is not right, the photo will have a color cast that can be difficult to remove after the picture is taken.

Traditional Filipino Vegetarian Dish

Photobucket


Throughout civilisation, the earliest of our ancestors have always been vegetarians, it is so in Mexico, India, China and Philippines.

In Philippines, this is the traditional vegetarian dish - green bean soup, or mung bean soup with kang kong vegetable and some onions to garnish.

We need to go back to the simple ways... we need to give up our killing aura and killing tendency.. That is the way back to salvation which is such an urgent issue now that we have the spectre of global warming hanging in our atmosphere.

Be Veg. Return to Kindness. Live Simply. Live in harmony with nature, sparing all lives and thus our own lives will also be spared.
