MAKING PICTURE IMPRESSIVE-CROP

A SILHOUETTE OF BOATS. In general people do not follow the purist's photography. No doubt, purists have their opinions on clicking images and what they shoot, do not touch part of it for anything whether for statement or enhancement. However, there are many who follow part of purism and part of their own addition/correction, until they are satisfied.

2.Nevertheless, in my opinion, u might have made a good picture but the presence of some unwanted elements ruin the beauty of the composition. In some cases, obstructive elements like these can easily be eliminated by use of 'crop' tool in photoshop. Thus u can employ changing the focus and format of ur image, besides emphazing the subject in different ways. The crop tool help to cut imperfections and make the picture perfect.

3. Would u like to view the composition of the above picture, converted to b&w, removing two elements by the crop tool. Now the emphasis is at the right side boats and the man entering from left balancing the picture with his presence in front of the inanimated objects. The middle boat joins them and the distant water adds depth to the scene...some vignetting puts ur attention in the centre and then to the rest of elements. That is why in some cases vignetting is important.

SOLAR ECLIPSE

This great moment was held on 15.1.2010. the time was 1.30 pm when it was at its maximum at my place...otherwise there were lucky persons where it was full and made a magnificent ring.

2. Photographers like me have their bindings having maximum focal length of 300mm....we try with this range...In the beginning the exposure seemed difficult....however when i saw the camera button, the setting was on Av and the sun was being overexposed....Immediately, i shifted to manual and turned the shutter speed at 1/3200 and aperture at f16 with the viewing filter over the lens, which made the image slightly soft. However, my first setting went right I shot 5-6 pictures and this is the enlarged version on photoshop.....Which we used to do with Enlarger on B&W FILM AND PAPER TAKING IT HIGHER for image magnification, some 30 yrs back.
NOW THE THINGS OR WORKING OR GADGETS HAVE SQUIZEED and minimum of effort is put to get the grand image.

3. However not all the digital cameras are providing multi-exposure facility, except in nikon D80, Canon i do not know....With milti-exposure facility we can make many images or sequence on one frame....this facility was there on many film cameras....or we cud make stable the frame by pushing up the sprocket button below at base plate....I feel, this will come slowly in many more cameras....it is very much relevant for creative photographers.
