Learning about my Flash

This first shot was using my flash at the 1/4 mark of my camera measuring tool and although it's a bit dark, I still like the effect of the bright green with black background.  I also used Manual focus and set my distance at 14', not knowing if it wo uld work or not:)

My second shot uses a Full Flash setting and turns out to be a much better photo and reveals much more of the plant that made it interesting to me in the first place:)  I didn't expect to need a Full Flash on a sunny day, even in a well lit pathway, so I learned something about lighting:)  My other settings seem to have worked well enough…

Learning a little Perspective

 

Okay, I'll get the hang of this eventually:)  The first photo is the entrance to a path that joins two streets in Surrey, but also the land fenced off is a Habitat Preserve, so I decided to explore and see what I might find with my camera.  My goal for the day was to experiment with my Manual settings, trying to get the lighting, distances, flash measurements etc. that would achieve a decent photo.  It's a sunny day, but the forest is notouriously dark once inside, even with sun coming through.

Learning to take photographs late in life:)

Hi to all my friends of photography!

 

I've decided to share my experience of learning photography, mainly on my own (no courses), though with the helpful feedback, tips, suggested reading material, and of course sharing my images.  I've been taking photos seriously for almost two years and although I think I have some good instincts, I have much to learn about how to use my camera properly; how to get the shots I see in my head, through my eyes, to come out on the page or in print and how to add that extra bit of magic or emotion to the image I want to use to express myself.  Thanks to some very kind and generous photographers in Delta Photo Club I feel priviledged to be able to pick their brains and listen to their ideas while on this journey of discovery.  I've always thought of myself as a creative person, through my writing, but photography gives me another way of expressing my perspective that is equally enjoyable and has more immediate satisfaction for me.  I…
