The Painting-like Photo Shoot – Slow Water Motion

2008-06-02T02:50:00.000-07:00

The slow water motion seems to be very amazing. You can create a painting like photo of flowing water. Do you know how this photo was taken?

Or have you come to think whether this one is a painting or a photo? Well, to tell you honestly, it’s a raw photograph. Never been edited on photoshop. How this picture was taken? Read on… the trick is here

All you need is your camera, the flowing water composition and a tripod. First, look for a flowing water subject and then mount your camera on your tripod to keep the camera on a steady manner. Then force the shutter button to stay open for about two seconds so you can create a soft, flowing effect for the water while the other elements in the scene stay nice and sharp. That’s all you’ve gotta do ;)

Canon PowerShot A560 - My First Ever Camera

2008-05-26T23:27:00.000-07:00

Canon PowerShot A560, bought it about 15,000 Philippine peso. But then I sell it after 1 week because I don’t like the design. But on the other hand, the features are great. It has 7 megapixel sensor and 4x optical zoom lens. It also has the face detection feature. But then I sell it to my friend just because I wanted a different design.
Here are some other features of Canon PowerShot A560
• Higher maximum ISO in which the sensitivity reaches up to ISO 1600
• Upgraded Digic III processor chip
• 35mm-to-140mm equivalent 4x zoom which gives it more range than the 3x zoom lenses
• 2.5-inch LCD screen with the viewfinder that can be used for shooting in dim light or tight quarters
• 7.1 Megapixel, 1/2.5 inch type Charge Coupled Device (CCD)
• Normal focusing range: 1.5 ft./45cm-infinity
• Macro focusing range: 2.0 in.-1.5 ft./5-45cm (WIDE), 1.1-1.5 ft./33-45cm (TELE)
• Viewfinder monitor: Real-image optical zoom viewfinder
• LCD monitor: 2.5 inch amorphous silicon TFT color LCD
• LCD Pixels: Approx. 115,000 pixels
• Maximum aperture: f/2.6 (W) - f/5.5 (T)
• Shutter Speed: 15-1/2000 sec.
• Flash range: Normal: 1.5-11 ft./45cm-3.5m (W), 1.5-7.2 ft./45cm-2.2m (T)

The Macro Shot - Glasswing Butterfly

2008-05-26T03:55:00.001-07:00

Take a look at these glasswing butterflies. You will notice that the butterfly is focused than the background. See the distribution of colors, from right here you can see that the camera feature used is the macro mode.

The macro photography can be compared to looking on a subject through the magnifying glass. On the other hand, if we are talking about macro mode on a digital camera, we are referring to the possibility to get a very close shot on our subject. In using the macro mode, there are few things to consider like the focus which is very critical because you’re goal is to get close to your subject. In this case, the subject and the camera should be parallel to each other and a small aperture should be used. The shutter speed would be somewhat slow so you may need your tripod. In-camera flash should be avoided because its light is usually too harsh and will cause overexposure. You may sort to using some form of natural lightning.

My Own Photography

2008-05-23T01:21:00.001-07:00

Ever wonder how people have their breath taking photographs? Well, the secret is, they are on the right place, at the right time and they’ve got good cameras with them. I myself have a passion with photography. Before, I was longing to have a high end digital camera… fortunately I’ve got one now. Not that very high end like what professional photographers have. Mine is a cool camera from canon. It’s a bit expensive but once you’ve got it, you would want to take every picture and every piece and give in with the art of photography. Take a look at some of the photographs I took when we had our company outing at Batangas. If you want to see other pictures visit my multiply account

This Elephant Can Actually Paint! AMAZING!

Elephants are one of the most intelligent animals in the world. They are the largest land animals alive today. Elephants show a remarkable ability to use tools, despite having no hands. Instead, they use their trunk like an arm, and take note, they are able to paint! Really increadible!!!

Watch as this elephant, rescued from abusive treatment in Burma, paints an amazing self portrait.
