Some people like me probably would have "bad different" while a good photographer might have "good different" What are the rules of good photography anyway?
These are great! Read the manual and get to know your camera and all its settings! Then practice, practice, practice. And of course, take it off the automatic settings. You don't want your camera doing the work. You want your camera to do what you tell it to do!
Nice photos and each one is a lesson. Thanks for posting Terry. I try to be different and shoot from different angles, use different subjects etc...but I find I'm always drawn to the close up critter shots!!!
I really love your work, and appreciate that they're done in black and white which makes them unique. That snowy picture is pretty dang amazing! Hugs...and Happy Monday! RO
Your photos always look good to me. Last Christmas I read a post saying to take photos from ladders. I laid on the floor and took some photos, but got distracted by wondering if the ceiling needed paint and other stupid stuff.
I think shooting from below is very important especially when photographing kids. They are really short people and the photograph looks terrible when shot from above. Hugs, Julia
I’ve only experienced taking pictures of kids when my brother invited me to the school where he works to take some pictures for their website. He gave me carte blanche to do what i want and that’s why it worked so well. The kids were brilliant.
Practise, practise, practise. And practise some more.
ReplyDeleteAnd learn from the masters.
Be different.

ReplyDeleteWell, shoot from a low angle is definiately one. Make it so different that people think “why didn’t I think of that”.

ReplyDeleteAnd don’t forget to take the lens cap off. Very important rule is that.

ReplyDeleteI don’t want to steal the limelight. But, i had to post about SOMETHING.
DeleteI was waiting for the written bit where you explain how to improve my photography :D
ReplyDeleteAnother great set of shots. Talent plus practice.
To improve your pics there are magazines and books to help you do it. Even the internet will. help you.

ReplyDeleteHi RO, i’ve still got the cameras but I can’t use them due to my stroke.
DeleteYour photos always look good to me. Last Christmas I read a post saying to take photos from ladders. I laid on the floor and took some photos, but got distracted by wondering if the ceiling needed paint and other stupid stuff.
ReplyDeleteI’ve tried to post on your blog without success.
DeleteI always think that shooting from below is unflattering but you don't make it that way. I guess that's why I'm no photographer!
ReplyDeleteIt’s essential when shooting football matches. You only find that out from experimenting.
