Today I decided to go back to photography. I've been doing if for quite some time, and I have to admit, I was just lucky to get good shots without full understanding what the camera actually does.
Now I know a lot more. So far, ISO, Aperture and Shutter Speed are understood. Though the Composition still needs more work. I think I got the rule of thirds in some images, but decided to have other images without that particular rule.
Since it was in the afternoon, It wasn't that sunny. I was also shooting on Manual for a change!
The Settings were:
Exposure: 1/20
Aperture: F/5.6 (F/5.0 for some images)
ISO: 200
I like using the "Shade" White Balance to get the yellowish effect, which looks just a bit vintage.
After slight edits on Photoshop, here are some of the pictures I took today:

| Contemplating ... |
 |
| Yaaaaaaaaawwwn! |
 |
| "Interesting!" |
 |
| And yes those are my flipflops! "What was that?!" thought Kittie. |
 |
| Abstract photography? |
 |
| And finally she leaves. Experimenting with Back lit images. |
Well, I guess my cat got bored xD Settings are pretty much similar for all the pictures, as the were taken in one environment.
Don't you just love pets? <3 And btw, my cat's name is Poopie.
Wow her eyes really stand out, I'm not such a great photographer but at least I try...www.knowandtellcrafts.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteHer eyes are originally that color, but due to the settings they came out too pale, so I had to retouch it with a hint of color on Photoshop, hence implementing a key design principle: emphasis by color.
DeleteCool blog you got there! Keep shooting, and you'll get better pictures with practice. That's what I do. =D
the third and fourth ones are my favourite!
ReplyDeleteThanks dear ^_^ I'm glad you like them =D
