When it comes to size, the largest often wins, or gets the biggest share, This is what happened at the “Bread Crumbs Party”, the Pigeon got the biggest share.

Preparing the Scene for a good capture.

It is not that easy, yes you may use the Point and Shot cameras for daily quick capturing. If you want to have a good shot you may want to set-up the scene and arrange the objects in the positions that suit you.

Here is a studio set-up for a shot, I used the natural lights from the windows and the room light, Nikon D90 with Nikon 35mm lens with f/1.8 to get the DOF effect, subjects are Watermelon, Orange [made of candle]and The Chinese’s Porcelainin in different distance from each other.

Here is another view with more details on the set-up and distances.

Water Splash

February 13, 2009 1 comment

 
    One of the wonderful ways to play with your camera is shotting the Drops of Water or what we can call "Water Splash", the way to do this is verey easy, but you mast be patient, shotting a lot of photos until you get the right shots.
 
Camera setup: High speed shutter, flash or light, manual focus and tripod are the most essential in this type of shotting, and just dont forget to select a background [white, black or colord board], you may use a glass or colored plate. You can use the normal water or colored ink.
 
Here are some of my first shots, other will be posted later
