27. Understanding Exposure Compensation in Photography

I always had a problem when taking images that had a lot of white in them or where they were quite dark. They came out grey or with the dark images, too light. What I hadn’t realized was that my camera was doing its own thing. That is, the light meter was being fooled by the conditions and making its own decisions. Most times they are great but there are times when they just don’t get it right. This is when exposure compensation can be used.

28. Using Natural Light For Great Wildlife Photography

To get the best light for a wildlife photo, you are really looking to minimize contrast, and to eliminate shadows from important areas; most importantly across the face of the animal. If you take your photos in the middle of a sunny day, you are bound to encounter shadows in all the wrong places. Bright light is likely to overexpose parts of the subject, while the face and the underside of the animal could be lost in heavy shadow.

29. Perspective in Photography

Perspective in photography can be defined as the sense of depth or spatial relationships between objects in the photo, along with their dimensions with respect to the viewpoint (camera lens or the viewer). This is one of the tricky areas of photography which if a photographer is not consciously aware of, can produce unwanted “distortions” or “flat” uninteresting images. The human eye judges distance by the way lines and planes converge at an angle. This is known as linear perspective.

30. Group Portrait Photography Tips and Techniques

Pulling the group together will allow you to step closer and assure that faces can be seen. Having the group stand shoulder to shoulder, all facing the camera can look very stiff and also makes it difficult to get close enough to see any detail. It is better to curve the rows and use various heights to bring the group in to a narrower range and allow faces to be seen in the photograph as you get closer to the group.

31. HDR Photography – The Facts

High Dynamic Range (HDR), as the name suggests attempts to extend the light and tonal range of images taken under normal conditions, and once a balanced HDR image is compared with the original shot the results are often outstanding. Ever hear the expression, “You just had to be there’, when someone is showing off photographs? What they are really saying is that their camera just cannot compete with the human eye when capturing the total range of light and dark areas in an image.

32. Digital SLR Cameras and Hyperfocal Distance Focus

Hyperfocal distance is that special focus condition in which clear focus is obtained from ½ the hyperfocal focus point to infinity. Put another way, if you know what the HFD is for the given lens focal length and f-stop and focus on it, then everything from ½ of that distance to infinity is in focus. Maximum depth of focus allows you to use relative subject scale as a creative aspect in your compositions while still keeping everything tack sharp.

33. Tips For Photographing Flowers

Flower shots always look their best when taken from the side. Shot from above they don’t have same appeal as when taken from the side. Use the rule of thirds placing them in a slightly off centred position and never right in the middle of the image. Getting in closer will always add to the composition. Here are some simple tips that will help you shoot better flower photos.

34. Sports Photography – How Most Pros Work

In sports photography, you have to be able to anticipate and concentrate for long periods. Being knowledgeable and following a variety of sports, not just the popular ones, is crucial.

35. Repetition and Patterns in Photography

The root word of repetition is “repeat? When you repeat a certain size, or shape or color you add strength to the overall image. Repetition is a basic concept in the world of art. If you want to make a statement, you repeat certain elements again and again. If you repeat something once or twice it becomes more interesting. If you repeat something many times it becomes a pattern and takes on a life of its own. Patterns give us order in an otherwise chaotic world.
