Basic Flash Photography With a Digital Camera
In this article we look at one of the most useful feature you have on your camera, the flash. Surprisingly we almost always take this feature for granted, thinking that all there is to it is to switch it on and off whenever we need it or don’t. Well, this time, I’ll share some tips with you on how you can effectively use your flash.
Most of us would have the standard flash unit built-in on our (digital) camera. Of course if you have moved on to a prosumer (digital) SLR camera, then you may already know about the different ways of using an external flash. This set-up gives you the versatility of using bounce flash and a more powerful flash output. But this month we’ll focus on the compact digicam.
Understanding Your Camera’s Built-in Flash
We are most familiar with the usage of flash at times when there is not enough light to take a good picture.
Set on Auto, your camera would compensate by adjusting shutter speed and aperture to light up and give you the best exposure for your subject. It is also the most portable lighting equipment that you will ever have.
On a standard camera, your flash unit has 4 settings, namely “On”, “Off”, “Auto” and “No Red-Eye”. “On” and “Off” is quite obvious, allowing you manual control in switching the flash on and off. “Auto” setting lets your camera choose to activate the flash depending on lighting conditions. The “No Red-Eye” setting prevents red-eye effect on your subject caused by the flash illuminating the blood vessels at the back of the eye and bouncing it back to the lens. Almost all cameras do this by activating an initial flash which shrinks your subject’s pupils before taking the actual shot.
Let There Be Light
Okay, on with the tips. Here are a list of things you would use your flash for apart from just illuminating the scene.
1) Light up shadows : One of the most useful times to use flash is when natural light is at its brightest. This is when harsh shadows are created on your subject. Because of the amount of light, your camera would not automatically switch on your flash; therefore you would have to do it manually. The resulting flash will light up the shadow areas on your subject giving you a more balanced shot.
2) Put a sparkle in her eyes : Sometimes even when natural light is enough, consider using the flash to give a sparkle in your subject’s eyes. This also lights up your subject’s face resulting in a livelier look.
3) Flash in a night scene : When you are taking a picture of your subject against a night scene with the normal flash setting, you would probably end up with your subject brightly exposed by your flash and little else of the background. Most new digicam have “Night-Scene/Mode” setting on them. This means the camera uses flash along with a slow shutter speed. Use this to illuminate your subject and at the same time enough lighting from the scene will be captured by your camera.
4) Freeze the moment : Using your flash is also a great way to freeze motion. What happens when you are faced with low lighting condition and you have a moving object to capture? Use your flash for a burst of light to freeze your subject. Your shot is then less likely to result in blurring. You could even try using “Night-Scene/Mode” and panning (using your camera’s viewfinder to track your subject) to create nice effect. This allows you to capture your subject sharp against a motion-blurred background.
5) Improve contrast and saturating colors : Low ambient lighting results in poorly lit low contrast images. Use your flash to improve the contrast level of the object you are shooting. This also brightens and increases the color saturation of your picture. You will have to trigger your flash manually to do this.
When Not to Use Your Flash
Okay, in getting to know when to use your flash, you should also know when not to use it.
1) When your subject is out of range : Most built-in flash have an effective range of approximately up to 10ft or 3m. If your subject is standing beyond this range, either move closer to your subject or switch off your flash and use a slower shutter speed setting. On your digicam you can also use a higher ISO setting to capture your subject at a higher shutter speed.
2) When you are taking a pleasant and usually warm ambiance : If you want to effectively take the pleasant nature of a scene that is lit by warm lighting such as candle light, don’t use flash if it is possible. However, make sure you have enough ambient lighting to prevent underexposure or blurring due to movements. A tripod is best used here.
3) When you are shooting a reflective surface : Shooting with the flash on and directly in front of a reflective object is a sure way of ruining your picture. This includes shooting through a window or between metal bars or fencing. The reflection from your flash will bounce off the shiny surface and right back to the lens resulting in a blurred highlight. If you have no other choice, try shooting from an angle to avoid reflections.
4) No flash photography allowed : Some places like museums, art gallery, or specialty zoos do not allow flash photography. Here using a slower shutter speed coupled with a tripod or simply switch your camera to a higher ISO setting.
Personally, I almost always keep my flash on. The added highlight created by the flash on my subject is a good ingredient in creating a brighter and livelier shot. Practice on having a good eye on observing lighting conditions around you. Eventually you will be able to predict how your flash will work in different conditions without having to do a double-take.
So, go ahead, flash it!
Hi! My name is Kenny Goh. I have been passionate about photography for the past 11 years. I love the emotions that come with photography… the passion, the excitement, the excitement, the calmness, the pleasures, the expressions. It’s all there for interpretations. Capturing time at its most vulnerable moment and then looking at it over and over again trying to emulate the same feelings… but, then it’s never the same. Currently, my full-time career as a Senior Creative Director for an advertising company has allowed me to create, conceptualize and also view photography works of others. From this, I find myself having to critique about my own work as much as I do of works by others. Moving on from taking photographs I have also since ventured into the field of Digital Imaging. This is an inevitable move to the next level of digital photography and imaging. I have been writing articles and conducting workshops on photo-editing and always on the search for even more creative executions. I have been a writer and a contributor for magazines and book publications such as Sound & Pictures, Chip Photo Video, Click! Magazine and Digital Photography and Camera as well as frequent photography contributor to foreign book publishers. I hope you find what I have here, enjoyable and worth reading as much as I loved writing and shooting too.

Commercial Photo Retouching
Great respect must be given to these professionals who create master pieces from a single or collection of images. They turn a seemingly ordinary beauty shot into a true queen of fashion or make true advertising art from a collection of mundane items.
These images we see every day, we take for them for granted and they appear everywhere. On the sides of buildings, in magazines, subways, hospital corridors even on vehicles. We get bombarded by these images and not once do stop to think “how” or “who” created them. Most of these images we view in a matter a seconds take days to complete, sometimes weeks of planning and editing and days to retouch and composite them together.
In a typical day you may see dozens of these images and you should take a look at some of them in greater detail and take some time to think. Look at what is going in the photo, was that really possible in one shot? Is it many shots combined? Is this even possible in real life? How was it done? It’s only now you begin to realize, that two second glance you would normally give reveals a new world of many unanswered questions.
The photo retouchers job is to convince you it is real, to make you believe the scene no matter how bizarre or impossible it may seem. Can you see that is amazing! Think how clever that is! These professional retouchers are true artists and should be given more credit.
Finding a commercial photo retoucher is a simple as viewing their portfolio. Of course each and every one of them has their own style and finding the one with the portfolio of work and style that suits you may take a few searches. It’s worth checking out the search engine and looking for relevant terms and then reviewing the portfolios of those that pop up in the results. You will be amazed at the quality or work that can be found.
Next you would be wise to check the price of the retouching. It may be that you have to get a quote for the whole job or on an image by image basis or even an hourly rate. Remember though the retouching costs will vary. If it’s just some small magazine images in a catalogue to be edited they will be far cheaper per image than a full beauty retouch that is going to be used on a huge billboard. Images such as these can take several days to complete where as simple edits for a magazine can take just minutes.
Huge images need to be retouched pixel perfect, every stray hair, blemish, discolouration, shadow and texture, evened and smoothed to that fairy tale perfection. Next time you are out and about give a second thought to those images you see and if you are looking for a commercial photo retoucher bear this article in mind.
Commercial photo retouching is a service provided by ThePhotoRetoucher. See the photo retouching portfolio to be amazed.

Photography As a Business
Sooner or later all keen photographers at least toy with the idea of turning pro, and others pursue it with a single mindedness that borders on the fanatical. There is always a good middle ground here in that the keen amateur and photography hobbyist can enjoy their activities every bit as much as the professional, and may excellent photographers follow other career paths as their main source of income. But the fundamental difference is that as an aspiring professional you have to have a hundred percent commitment and a good understanding of photography basics (at the very least).
Now more than any time in history, images are used to make money. Trends in innovative design, documentation methods, diagnostic approaches, and web-based services combine with advancements in camera equipment and image processing to create an ever-increasing demand for skilled photographers. The list of business that need and use photography every day is huge, but the supply of royalty free images from ‘Stock Photo’ suppliers runs into the millions, so you have to build a good portfolio and build your ‘Personal Brand’ both on and off line. Check out what photography courses are available in your area, go to exhibitions, pay close attention to what pictures are in the better quality newspapers and magazines.
A lot of people are drawn to wedding photography, lured by stories of huge fees to be charged. Of course there are successful wedding photographers who do very well, but you’ll usually find that they are professionally trained and have had a business plan in place before taking the plunge. The other side of the coin is that there are hundreds of part timers who lower standards, produce shoddy work and make it harder for those with real talent. Do your homework and try to find the photographic niche that you feel comfortable with. Once you find a stable foundation you can spread your wings occasionally in other branches to test the water. There’s no reason for example why you couldn’t be a great photojournalist and be damn good a portraits too.
With this in mind you should always reach out for ways to create dynamic images that are going to stand out from the crowd. It’s worth bearing in mind though, not to get lazy with your work and remember your basics. Try to create what you want ‘In Camera’ so you’re starting out with a good shot. There’s a growing number of people who seem to be satisfied with a mediocre picture and then use a photo editing program to put the icing on the cake.
Even before you know what industries or kinds of photography interest you, start taking photos. In every aspect of your life, look for ways that you can try different camera equipment, take photos of different subjects, experiment with techniques, and create pieces for your portfolio. Challenge yourself to tell stories with images, capture telling moments, make objects look aesthetically irresistible, and portray commonplace things in uncommon ways. Nothing is more important in photography than being able to demonstrate your talent and skill. Once you’ve identified primary areas of interest, consider how you can combine them. By developing skills and knowledge in complementary areas, you create a unique skill set that distinguishes you from the competition, and establishes a wide foundation for you to grow. Keep in mind that your presence online, in addition to in-person, reflects your personal brand so be sure to put your best foot forward when networking and interacting through social media sites like LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter.
Enjoy your photography.
I’ve been a professional photographer for more than thirty years and my work has been published globally through agencies such as Rex of London. In the early eighties I studied photojournalism at New York University under National Geographic photographer Tom Morotta, which was a wonderful learning experience I treasure to this day. I’ve travelled extensively in Europe, the US and the Caribbean and lived in Southern Spain where I worked for top society magazines on the Costa del Sol. I presently live in Belfast in Northern Ireland. http://www.mybestphototips.com/

Resize Photos Or Images: It’s Not Just Size That Matters
You have just taken your digital photos, now you need to convert them to be just the right size. Whatever your purpose is ” you may want wallpaper for your phone, you may be a budding webmaster, you need to send some photos through email to your family or friends ” you need to resize your photos.
This article will discuss the key details you need to know. It will discuss sizing, cropping, and compressing. Fortunately, one of today’s tools makes this possible. We present you Bulk Photo Resizer, an excellent Swiss Army Knife for your photos. This software does more than resize.
It’s not necessary that you know what size your photos are; what’s important is that you know what size you want them to be. Of course it helps to set your camera for the right size (the setting might be called “resolution”). If you know how to do that, your camera to take bigger, clearer photos; however, they will eat up memory faster than smaller ones. You don’t have to make a choice between two extremes, though. If you want to take a lot of photos and still want acceptable quality, then you can go for medium resolution.
Most cameras have a setting like medium resolution. If there’s no such setting, something around 600 pixels wide gives you a size that is acceptable, unless you want an incredibly artistic photo that you’ll want as big as possible.
Camera manuals have additional specific tips on resolution or image quality settings. Whatever your camera is, whether it’s a cell phone camera, a web cam, or a regular digital camera, or you scanned some photographs from your family album, there are some settings to configure. Cameras come with default factory settings that are good for general usage. This setting will allow you to get acceptable image qualities without knowing all the tricks from the manual.
Now, let’s get back to the photos that are already saved in your hard drive. If the photos are too big for the application you need them for, you can easily resize them with the Bulk Photo Resizer, an easy to use software you can download and try out for free.
The question is: what size is the right size? For attaching photos to email, a conservative size is about 400 pixels wide. For use in social networking or dating sites, you will want to check on the resolution they prefer. Resizing the photo to the sites required or preferred dimensions will give you the best-looking result. After clicking on a thumbnail (the smaller image), you see the larger image which is usually around 300 pixels wide, although this varies. Finally, if you’re creating wallpaper or an image for your screen saver, you need to consider your monitor’s resolution, unless you just want to let Windows stretch the image. The resolution would not be quite that good if you do this.
Whatever size you decide on choosing, you’ll need to do a lot of the following three things: crop, resize, and compress. Our featured program, Bulk Photo Resizer does all these three easily. The user interface is very simple; using the software is very easy to learn. Use it for one photo at a time, or use it on hundreds or even thousands of photos all at once. Our software testers found it nearly impossible to make mistakes. The software even prevents you from stretching the photo too tall or wide keeping everything the right shape. This is called “preserving the aspect ratio.” The resizing choices Bulk Photo Resizer gives you are already preset to ensure that the aspect ratio is preserved.
One thing that is almost as bad as stretching your photo out of shape is enlarging it. If your photo is not large enough, it’s best to leave it at its resolution. Bulk Photo Resizer prevents you from enlarging the photo. If you want larger photos from you camera, you need to learn how to set it for higher resolution photos.
Why does Bulk Photo Resizer prevent enlarging? When digital photos are enlarged, they start to get jagged edges known as the “jaggies”, which are the little squares that make up the image. If a photo gets too big, it starts to look like what they do on TV to hide someone’s face or license plate, turning it into little squares. This effect is called pixelation.
Great news! There’s no problem if you don’t know what the size of your photo is, Bulk Photo Resizer will tell you!
If you need to know what the size of your photo is and you don’t have software similar to Bulk Photo Resizer, you can check the photo on your computer using a Windows program called Windows Explorer. Windows explorer will help you find where your files are. First, you need find the directory that has your photos. Thumbnail view will be very helpful in finding photos. To switch to Thumbnail View, just click View (in the menu row near the top of the screen), and then select Thumbnails. Windows explorer helps you figure out what directory to look in by showing you some of the images in each directory when you are in thumbnail view.
After you find your photo, right click on its thumbnail or file name, then select Properties, and click on the Summary tab. This tab will show you the height and width of your photo in pixels.
Before resizing your photo, you should consider cropping. Cropping a photo simply means you are trimming away the parts around the outside edge so that you can have the things in the photo positioned and featured the way you want. Look at some photos in a magazine, or observe how things look in movie scenes. You will notice that the important parts of the photo stand out. They aren’t surrounded by too much of the scenery or background, unless there’s a good reason to show it. Never show someone from the chest up and then have several inches of sky overhead as though his head was a bulls-eye. Have his head shown at the top of the photo.
The Bulk Photo Resizer software makes it very easy to crop any image. You will actually see right away how it will look. It’s also very easy to undo things and try over.
After cropping an image, it will have a smaller size. You can now check the size of your photo so that you can decide if it needs to be even smaller for your purposes. Don’t be too eager to click that save command. When cropping an image, you might want to save it as a different file just in case you change your mind and would want to revert to the original image. This advice applies to images that you resize as well. You may just need that image in its original size later?
When saving an image, you will need to decide on how much compression to use. Compressing an image means making it take up less space on your hard drive. The problem with compression, however, is that you lose image quality. If you go too far in compressing, your photo can look downright blotchy. If you will be doing more editing to an image, you need to save it with no compression.
If you are saving an image in its final form, then some compression is usually recommended, especially for the web. If you intend to show an image on the web, you want it to be shown on visitors’ browsers as quickly as possible. Social networking and dating sites have rules about how many kilobytes an image can be as well. If they say an image has to be less than 100 KB, then check to see if your image needs to be compressed or made smaller. Either of these actions (cropping / compression) will make the file size smaller. Image size and file size confuses a lot of people. Image size is how big an image looks while file size is how much space it takes up on your hard drive. Larger file sizes take more time to show up on a webpage because a visitor needs to download more data in their browser when they go to the page.
With Bulk Photo Resizer, compressing images is very easy. If you want compression to be not that obvious, use 80. Compression scale goes from zero to 100. 60 is a considerably high level of compression since the image starts to be noticeably blotchy at this setting. There should be no noticeable effect of compression at a setting of 90 or higher, although it will still reduce the file size a good bit.
As a side note, the kind of image file or file type that is compressed is usually those that end in .jpg. People usually call these file types “jay-pegs,” but no one spells it that way. A great majority of photos or images on the web are in .jpg’s format.
There are a lot more facts you can learn about digital photos, but now you know the most essential stuff. We hope you enjoy resizing, cropping and compressing your photos!

Did you know that the lens is as important. if not more important, than the camera you are using? I use Canon models, so I am always on the lookout for the best Canon digital SLR lens that MY money can buy (I don’t have deep pockets).
When I started taking digital photos with my first Olympus 3-megapixel point and shoot camera, I became obsessed with nature pictures. I was especially taken with macro and bird photography.
So now, when you pair Canon digital slr lens with nature, you are talking about image quality in its finest form. For some types of photography like family pictures or street journalism, the sharpness and detail are not quite as important as with nature photos.
I have had the occasion to “lose myself” in a “National Geographic” or “Outdoor Photographer” magazine, imagining that I was the nature photographer who submitted the award winning photos on those pages.
Those guys and gals who shoot for “National Geographic” use lenses that cost in the thousands of dollars… way too costly for my meager budget.
But getting a good quality Canon digital SLR lens can be accomplished on a smaller budget, and “award winning” images are possible, too.
When I say smaller budget, I am talking about, let’s say, a bird lens of about 300mm f/4 with an extender. If you are shooting with a Digital Rebel or a 60D, you can have an effective range of about 600mm, give or take a few millimeters. You can get some excellent photos with that kind of setup.
Or consider a Canon 100mm macro lens. It is an amazing lens for under $900. There are lots of examples of award winning photos with this sweet little macro lens.
The great part about the better lenses is that they are not limited to nature photography. A good long distance lens can do very well with sports like soccer and football. And a 100mm lens is perfect for portraits.
Getting a good Canon digital SLR lens or two will give you years of gratification in your chosen hobby or profession.

Ken Silver Lotto System Review – Is Ken’s Lottery System A Sam
I checked out Ken Silver’s Lotto System and here is my honest, real review. These days there are lots of terrible products out there so when I see a great product in the pile of bad ones out on the market is truly refreshing. It turns out that it is true that there is a pattern of numbers and a system for winning the lottery. I originally thought Ken Silver’s Lottery System was a scam but after delving into it, it makes perfect sense.

Syndicate this Article Copy to clipboard Digital photography eliminates the problems out of photography in a number of manners: No film implies no mess as well as less expense. No lenses equals no clutter, and once people get used to using a digital camera, digital photography can even allow you to snap much better pictures. Shot an image you didn’t really like? Digital lets you examine the particular shot upon a Liquid crystal display monitor located on the backside of the camera right after you snapped it, and then remove it with a click.
Are you looking for a fun little photographic camera to shoot pictures of family festivities and knees ups? Or maybe, do you think you’re more interested in working on your digital photography abilities and getting proficient at picture shooting as well as cropping and editing? It doesn’t matter what your digital photography target, you ultimately want fine, clear photos along with a photographic camera that is simple to operate.
The four basic styles of digital camera are: – 1) Ultra-compact- relating to the dimensions of a charge card, and also fits very easily into your front pants pocket of any denim jeans. 2) Sub-compact- will fit easily in a shirt pocket. 3) Point and Shoot-normal capacity camera with an increase of characteristics, and requires a camera bag. 4) Single Lens Reflex (SLR) – excellent camera. It’s got the appear and feel of the 35 mm, that has a removable zoom lens.
Digital cameras provide you with photos that happen to be really portable. You are able to download the shots to a computer to e-mail or even change having programs such as Adobe’s Elements, screen-print them out, or even generate slide shows – pretty much everything and never have to drop off photographic film as well as pay for developing them. Some digital cameras sometimes let you take instant movies. Today, additionally PDAs, mobile phones and also timepieces have got into the area of digital pictures. Down below we will discuss the basic principles associated with how digital photography is most effective. This will be important in order to pick a new digital camera.
Pixels – A digital image, or photo, consists of countless miniature dots. The quantity of pixels establishes the standard – otherwise known as the resolution – belonging to the photograph. By means of digital photography, when you click the camera’s press button, a PC chip called the “charge couple device” (CCD) within the camera instantly files the place, coloration, as well as brightness of each pixel. Place all of the pixels collectively you produce the photo!
Resolution will be an important factor when purchasing a digital camera. Higher resolutions are more expensive, but in addition result in pictures that can be enlarged digitally while not losing high-quality. When researching a ‘point and shoot’ camera to use for fun look for digital cameras having a resolution between three to five mega pixels which enables you to produce good high quality 4″ x 6″ up to 8″ x 10″ paper prints.
Battery power – The decision about which power supply an individual’s camera takes is definitely an important one. Alkaline Double a battery packs never keep a charge so long as lithium battery packs do, specifically if you are using the flash. However, to be able to obtain AA batteries wherever could be crucial, particularly if people take a trip.
Lithium battery packs last longer, however they are very pricey to change. Nickel Cadmium batteries are chargeable. You have to totally discharge them prior to recharging, or you will end up with weak performance. A different sort of standard rechargeable battery power is a Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH). They come in all standard sizes, and keep going round something like 400 charges. They are in all probability your very best get yourself. Lion (Lithium Ion) battery power last almost double as long as others do, and therefore are typically purchased as being an ‘extra’. These are more recent, not available in all sizes, and not as accessible as the others are.
Memory – Another necessary thought with regard to digital photography is certainly the size of the memory inside the camera. The actual storage device is precisely what stores the picture in the digital camera – visualize it as your camera’s hard disk. Digital camera images of prime quality take up a lot of space. You are able to fit in a lot more low-resolution compared to high-resolution shots on to a single unit card.
It is possible to hold numerous storage unit cards, yet who aspires to set up that optimal shot and then notice your digital camera has out of the blue run out of room? In case your photographic camera shoots somewhere between three to five mega pixels, a memory card equipped with 128 MB to 512 Megabytes should keep a person snapping shots right up until ones fingers get tired.
Other sorts of wonderful benefits to contemplate when deciding on your brand new camera can include size and weight. A bulkier photographic camera is simpler to hold stable, a more compact photographic camera is simpler to store and transport. Several digital cameras provide a multiple visibility option which will let you obtain a pre-programmed quantity of exposures whenever you touch the press button. Your self-timer will let you effortlessly shoot a picture immediately after a set period. The remote control feature will let you operate the digital camera a way away. Other options consist of date and time frame references that will stamp the photograph, and screen the data when viewing the image via the camera or perhaps software, and sound recording, that enables you to insert captions to your pictures.
Most digital cameras can be purchased incorporated with software that allows you to manage your images. The sort of computer software alters with each and every camera, and it needs to be a consideration when buying a camera.
There is no such thing as being the ultimate digital camera. You have to consider your own digital photography targets, your own price range plus your experience grade to work out just what photographic camera options stands out as the most effective for you.

The Most Amazing Types Of Photography
We, living on this planet have evolved over the years, keeping in mind the changes that have taken place all over these years. There has to be something that can reveal things from the past. We have seen the world ages ago and how it looked thanks to the wall paintings. It has been recorded the South-East Asian countries have paintings that back to the late 3rd Century BC. Look at the world today, as far as I can see it we have conquered hill tops and reached the deepest abyss of the sea. How do we get all this stuck in our heads? The only way we can remember all this through some amazing photography.
Photography is the name goes is defined as the process or an activity of creating still or moving pictures which is done by using sensitive radiation through a medium such as a photographic film or an electric censor. The word “photograph” was coined together by Sir John Herschel. The two Greek words are “photos” which means light and “graphe’” which means either “representation by means of line” or “drawing”. Amazing photography is no different than photography it’s that just some photographers with their level of experience tend to know much more about the different angles and the lighting for the photographs.
Now every camera crew always has an experienced photographer who understands about the lighting which is required for the shot and then explains to them the best possible angle. When it comes to wild life photography the camera is kept on for 24/7 till they capture that special moment they’re looking for. As one split second can cause them a loss of thousands of dollars, forget the money but the fact that a scene of that sort might not happen for years to come. If you a creature crying and the battery of your camera has given you the answer, then how will you comply? How do you then expect the photographs it to be of the category of amazing photography?
Another task at photography is editing the pictures. All the photographers who end up getting such great photos are generally good at editing or when they sit with an editor in their studio they know what exactly they want. Editing is often a powerful tool and sometimes can be used to the advantage of the photographer. Say for instance if you have a glitch in the photograph on the character itself and you cannot ignore it. Then you can probably use a photo editing software and edit out that part of the photo or perhaps change the contrast. The power of editing is big and it is often used to hide the stretch marks or hair found on any of the models after the shoot. In fact most of the fashion magazines have professional who are masters at the editing software and in turn give the company some amazing photography.
The field of photography is extremely exciting and adventurous, which is why there is a lot of crowd in this field. Everyone wants their pictures to be recognized and appreciated. But everyone cannot become a photographer. A photographer possesses his own unique style and method of taking pictures. Natural talent and skill will help a photographer to achieve success in this field. For some people photography is a mere passion or a hobby practiced in free time. But for many it is a profession which earns them their income. However difficult achieving success is in this film there are many who are being celebrated. There are many fields in photography. It is not a restricted profession. One such field is artistic photography.
We all have taken pictures at some point in our lives. Mostly we take pictures when we are on a vacation or if there is an event like birthdays, weddings and reunions. Taking pictures are a method of capturing moments so that they can be remembered later. Pictures stimulate a lot of emotions. If we look at a picture of a delicious ice cream our mouths would water. If a mother looks at her daughter’s wedding pictures her eyes would water in happiness. Pictures thus play a very important role in our lives. Let us see what artistic photography is all about.
Artistic photography is one of the most popular fields of photography. These pictures are taken in order to fulfill the creative vision of the artist. An artistic photographer would like to show his creativity and imagination in his pictures. Artistic photographers require special skill and talent. A photographer needs to take pictures that convey something to the viewer. The person seeing the pictures must feel something. All photographers try to put in something in their pictures. Either it is a message, a story or anything about their own personal self. This has to be reflected adequately in the picture.
Other than the field of artistic photography there are several other fields in the profession of photography. There are fields like nude photography, commercial photography, food photography, wild life photography, underwater photography, aerial photography, still life photography, glamour photography, nature photography, candid photography, forensic photography, fire photography, secret photography, macro photography, street photography, sports photography, celebrity photography, architectural photography, travel photography, fashion photography, portrait and weeding photography. These are the numerous fields of photography. By this list we can see that this is not a restricted profession.
Anyone who wants to pursue a career can choose any of the above fields and specialize in it. There are several courses available in the field of photography that one can follow and a get a certified degree or diploma. There are various internship opportunities as well that helps an individual start his or her own career. If you want to know more about artistic photography you can log on to one of the several websites available on the internet and see the works of established and qualified photographers and gain more knowledge.

New Angels And Temporary Roadblocks: Work On The Book Continues
Monday, October 11
Back in town. Last night I checked the newly formatted chapters and found only a few errors: a period instead of a comma, a page number mistake in a footnote, a misplaced capital letter. I will check through those chapters again today and meet with Diana tonight. Possibly, after typing in these changes, we can tackle the Table of Contents.
Then I will reedit the entire book. And check all the footnote numbers.
With all the editing this book has had, it absolutely astounds me that mistakes still exist within it.
Diana has firmly decided against angel graphics for the subsections of the interviews section of the book. I am disappointed, of course – but have not entirely given up on the idea. Perhaps if we used the same angel graphic for all those section headings, Diana would be more prone to embrace the idea. Will suggest it. Our differences surrounding a new, improved cover also continue.
Of course, the overwhelming feeling is one of joy and gratitude. I had no idea the formatting work would go so quickly and easily …
On the other side of the coin, we are already looking ahead to the dreaded Table of Contents for the We Meet in Dreams volume. Organizing the Dreams book was the most time-consuming aspect in its creation. And the architecture of the Table of Contents , by necessity, is equally complicated. I just hope people will not take a trusting glance at the Table of Contents , groan – and then close the book.
Tuesday, October 1212:12 p.m.
Will meet with Diana this afternoon and type in my corrections then. A flurry of e-mails: found and sent her the reviews for Realms of Light , for the back pages of the Angels book. Realized we have to write a blurb for the back cover. Have to find someone to review Visits With Angels . And a back cover blurb and review(s) for We Meet in Dreams . Suddenly it all is beginning to feel very real.
Diana is driving up to Cornell today to rephotograph the original angel statue she used for the cover of Visits With Angels . She is firmly determined to redo the cover, and when she gets a certain look in her eye – I stand aside …
However, Diana has agreed with my newest idea for the Angels book interviews subsections: a small angel icon repeated on all the title pages. Hopefully we will write the back cover blurb tonight, over a late dinner.
I am now trying to think of someone to review Visits With Angels . As with my other books, the book is not representative of one sole religion or philosophy, which always makes it harder to find a reviewer …
6 p.m.
Spent an hour or two on the computer trying to find a possible reviewer. D. called at one point to report that she was up at Cornell and could not find the angel statue she had used for the front cover. She eventually found the statue, in Sage Chapel. It is standing so high up in the chapel that D. thinks she needs a camera with a telephoto lens – and a tripod. She came here following that adventure; went to a coffee shop uptown and wrote out the first draft of the blurb for the back cover together. Corrections to Section IV later tonight. Meanwhile, Diana will meet with some computer/graphics friends and I will have dinner with M.
The pieces are starting to fall into place.
3 a.m.
Diana just left. We put in all the new corrections for Section IV and also designed the subsection title pages for the interviews. Chose a beautiful angel and then Diana altered the photograph in Photoshop, to more or less match the other title page angel graphics; I helped to erase the background, a hypnotically time consuming job. Decided to use the same angel for all the subsections of Section II; made the angel slightly smaller than the ones on the main section title pages – and the printing smaller and lighter, to denote they are subsections. Checked to make sure all my old corrections were in the current version of the text, for the entire book. Tomorrow D. will begin work on the Table of Contents , a job we both thought she had already done months ago. Diana also decided to make all the pulled quotes a larger font; she plans to change them throughout the manuscript. I am exhausted.
Wednesday, October 13
One magazine already responded: they do not do reviews for back covers. D. Came over and worked downstairs all afternoon and for most of the evening. She reworked our subsections angel, started over using new filters and techniques; she felt the original version was too washed out. Now she has to decide on how large the fonts should be for the subsections title pages. We know they should be smaller than in the rest of the book – but still large enough to be easily readable. Decisions, decisions. I think we should use a lighter font, but we’ll see what she decides.
At this point I have very little to do in regard to her project, save to answer her questions and provide the material she needs for the end pages.
Thursday, October 142:00 a.m.
A rainy day, perfect for working. Saw D. tonight and we went to the State Diner for something to eat. Without my knowing, she had completed three new angels for the subsections of the interview section of the book. Of course, I was delighted – and also astonished. As it turns out, all four subsection angels are angel statues in Dallas. The cover is the Sage Chapel Ithaca angel; the others are photos of angel statues Diana took while in New Orleans. At the State diner, over home fries, we chose which angel would represent which subsection. Then Diana sized them and placed them on the correct title pages. She agreed to make the font somewhat larger than the initial font size she had chosen for the subsection title pages, and we are still negotiating other small typographical changes for those pages. Her work is truly astonishing, requiring many levels and layers and various filters … And I am not quite sure what else …
I am so very pleased.
Next will be the Table of Contents , and that will be entirely her project. Meanwhile, I need to reread the interviews and make final decisions on which to include. And make any needed corrections. As in Realms of Light and We Meet in Dreams , I basically only correct spelling and punctuation errors in my interviews with others. My feeling about interviews is that each person brings their own language and perceptions with them – and it is not my intent to change that, make all the interviews sound the same. I do not rewrite or paraphrase what is said or what is sent to me – I enjoy the different voices and ordering of words and thoughts. To change even a word or the order of words in a sentence, for me, robs the interview of both personal meaning and individuality. Each word, and its placement in a sentence – has a specific meaning and rhythm and cadence for the speaker or writer, whether conscious or unconscious. Even here in Ithaca, the neighboring towns have their own patois or dialects that are fairly easily recognizable; not only unique verbal expressions, but even small changes in inflection, grammar and vocabulary. My thought is to allow the interviews to make their own verbal and emotional quilt, with each person bringing their own view of the world and of language to the reader. Since the people being interviewed are from various cultures and countries, or states within the United States – and of varying education and emotional and psychological makeup – their accounts will be expressed in ways that reflect who they are, and physically where they are located on this vast earth. For me this diversity brings a wonderful richness to the book.
I am exhausted. Tomorrow I will tackle the interviews.
Tuesday, October 19
Diana was all formatted & ready to string all the separate chapters into one big file – but now is struggling with her new graphics software. She spent the last two days grappling with it, without success. She found a forum for the software online, and apparently there are glitches in the software; other graphic designers have complained about the same issues she is now facing, and no solutions have been found.
I am sending angels that she somehow figures it all out.
She has been using an automated system, and the problem with automated systems is that they are so very inflexible. She said the usual tricks she uses to override other systems are just not working. Well, if the angels want their volume out by Christmas, software solutions, however improbable: will emerge.
Meanwhile I have finished rechecking the Interviews section, made my corrections, and will send the corrected files to Diana this afternoon.
Aside from putting all the formatted files into one file for the publisher, we still have the Table of Contents , the beginning and end pages, the back cover and a new sharper front cover to finish. These tasks should take less than a week – unless we run into more problems.
6:14 p.m.
An e-mail from Diana:
“The adaptation technique for getting our software files to behave – the adaptation that I said I had hopes for – IS WORKING. It’s slower than the other technique I was using, but this is the only way to make it generate correct footnote numbers. I swear, as long as we’ve been doing your books, it’s the footnotes that have caused the MOST problems and the highest impact on my time. In any case, I am now making progress, slowly but surely.”
Good news indeed. The dreaded footnotes… Now to type my corrections of the Interview section into the manuscript.
