AMBIENT LIGHT NEEDS FLASH TURN OFF

SOMETIMES PHOTOGRAPHERS MAY NEED TO GIVE THE AMBIENT LIGHT EFFECT to their images...the images will have a warm effect, which will look different from what anybody gets in sunlight, daylight shadows and with flash which throws light equivalent to daylight.

2. Warmer effect may depict a different mood, that is why i chose the ambient light i.e. tungsten light to lit this portrait of my daughter...The background too matches the warm effect, because i used a cream coloured walled at a distance from the subject...The effect i wanted is easily achieved.

3. Here while shooting this sort of photography, the the photographer will have to switch off his builtin or separate flash....these moody shots anybody can take in home with sufficient light by slightly increasing the ISO(generally 400 or 800 will work better without tripod or with tripod), in the parties, where flash light is not allowed or flash will mar the original effect of the hall concentrating light upto a particular distance, in the theatres, where the artists' moods are shown by their own light arrangements, on the roads or in night where again the restricted flash light will distract the overall luminance of the ambient lighting, reading under the table lamp light and shot the mood of study...there are so many like occasions where ambient light is photographers main light source....exploit it to ur best.

INNOCENCE LOVED

THE EASIEST OF THE TARGET OF THE CAMERA ARE THE INNOCENT CHILDREN...they are around u, in home, on streets....and i feel, it is one of the most pleasurable moment for the photographer to click them.......few days back i was passing thru a village, where i wanted to capture a small girl of 9 yrs.....but on looking at the camera, she ran away....the girl from poor farmers' family....then my wife offered some money....she was clever enough...said she ''give me the money, but do not take photo....she came 3-4 times near the car for money, but as i raised the camera, she ran away....however, i managed to get one shot, but since the camera was on average metering, the image underexposed, being backlighted....

2.Anyhow, i enjoyed shooting these three children on the stage in a programme...they are more curious...though they know that they are being photographed....but their emotions are wonderful...they represent flowers here and as i raised the camera, they expressed themselves, which amused the audience. I got my shot...thank u little ones...long live ur innocence.
