Just thinking about going on vacation in a couple of days has me looking back at some older vacations we went on. I found a few images I wanted to share with you. Two are of Macaws but the last one of kinda special and it shows the effect of candid photography. check em out.

The shot below could be something I sell. The reason it works is because it is a total candid. The man in this photo is doing his everyday thing while not paying any attention to the camera. If you have some Candids you want to share post em... but only candids..

These shots were taken last summer when we were in Cancun Mexico. In fact, if anyone here is interested in going to my villa in Cancun this August PM me for details.. My villa is available...<br><br>Post edited by: CeasarsDad, at: 2007/05/16 04:51

I think you will agree. Bounce flash is a much more pleasing photograph. What I would like you to try, at least those of you with DSLR's with external flash, is to take photos with bounce flash vs direct. Post your finding here. This is this weeks assignment.. Have at it.. Discover the differences for yourself. Those of you with built in flash you can't do this unless you can get an external flash.

Here's mine:

 

Pop up flash:

How are you bouncing this TalonSis.. Are you going off the ceiling? or just straight on? We have to develop your flash skills now.. :=) I like the shots but I doesn't look like you have the bounce thing set just right yet.. Post more examples..

 

Also make sure your camera is in the correct flash mode with should automatically happen but check.

alright the correct flash mode? What do you mean? :blink:

 

Here's some I took after school, I think I mainly need practice.

Its tricky to try and get the right way to bounce the flash off...which is why the vertical mode is hard for me. Maybe theres the fact I'm not used to the flash, lol :P

 

Oh and here are some I took right before Talon went to bed. :P

Yes, Melissa. Mom is correct.. You are going very well with this new bounce flash. You need to try to boost the exposure compensation. Try increasing the exposure compensation on the camera by about .5 to 1.0.

 

I am starting to see the look I am expecting. The last photo is close but there are others you posted that are also good.. The one where Talon is upside down looks good to. If you increase the exposure compensation like I suggest you will see a marked improvement.. Try it and post some new photos

 

Regarding the flash mode.. You want to make sure you are in the TTL or Through The Lens mode.. Check it out.

 

See Ya Kiddo..<br><br>Post edited by: CeasarsDad, at: 2007/05/19 17:18
