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.
