I'm helping my friend with some photos for a new online shop and she was worried when I was taking the photos outside one evening- we'd had a stunning day and so it was still lovely outside but without the harshness that would normally bring out the shadows, and I still had plenty of light to change aperture up.pennydoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425898433355516938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5176799358531491903.post-83721738256089907992014-05-26T18:23:55.524+03:002014-05-26T18:23:55.524+03:00Thanks for the RAW tip, also never knew what it ex...Thanks for the RAW tip, also never knew what it exactly was for. I also need help with creating photos with blurred areas. I currently do it in Photoshop. Is there a camera that can do it automatically?

I wish I'd upgraded my entry level DSLR sooner. I resisted because the entry level one was lightest that manufacturer did - a real bonus if you're also carting around a big lens and are wussy like me. But now I've upgraded (purely by picking up someone elses camera and trying it for a day rather than the odd snap.) I so wish I'd done it sooner. I can't believe the range of settings it allows me to manipulate that my other camera didn't. People would say oh in low light just adjust this to...or that to... and I'd be gritting my teeth thinking: But the camera's settings don't go that far and I couldn't compensate with another setting for the same reason! Admit I've heard people talk about RAW but know nothing about it!<br />Isisjemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13639503578526424947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5176799358531491903.post-18862631613093958832014-05-23T22:54:32.920+03:002014-05-23T22:54:32.920+03:00I have heard of RAW but no idea where to find it o...I have heard of RAW but no idea where to find it or what to do with it *laughs heartily* but I am off Auto mode some of the time!

Thank you, i suspect ive just been handed my next big learning curve! i think the best thing i read this month about photography was to bear in mind the 'subject' behind your shot! why you are shooting it, to ensure you have a photograph not just a snap shot! that one idea alone has radically altered how i think when i pick up my camera! beautiful images xxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12648229748088235109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5176799358531491903.post-53329288319193443612014-05-23T22:40:58.593+03:002014-05-23T22:40:58.593+03:00I think I wish I'd known about Lightroom soone...I think I wish I'd known about Lightroom sooner, and possibly also about the golden hour at dusk - and maybe also that in England sometime the better picture is the one you took in grainy low light to actually capture the moment, than the one you didn't because conditions weren't perfect. Gorgeous pictures one and all by the way :)Carie @ Space for the Butterflieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13060566680311122115noreply@blogger.com
