Introduction
Hello there.
This is an article for those who would love to know more about that box of tricks called a camera! Not just information for the sake of it, but information that does something! That little box of mysterious tricks that captures thousands of photographs only to end up stored away and forgotten in some form of computer directory or cardboard box, rarely, if ever, looked at again!
The usual summer time happy snapping with a 'whirr, click' and on hearing that mechanical sound, sensing that you will produce just another 'point & shoot' image that will only be forgotten about or even deleted! Fed up with the same old boring images, taken a million times before which results only in the camera being stowed away for yet another year! That's if you're not like thousands of others who buy a new one when you have a perfectly functional camera already, only to repeat the same disappointing process again the following year!
Images taken with little or no application of the properties and functions being applied! Images taken with little or no idea of framing, speed, aperture or focus being set correctly! An item that rapidly becomes just another boring tool that is put away in some dark recess and forgotten about until the next birthday or celebration of some kind! A box of tricks that remains just that - a box of mysterious tricks!
For want of a few basic but important skills by the operator in order to produce images that are good enough to generate a burst of interest that leads to developing better skills and better images! Another thing - you do not have to wait the interminable wait, for the sunny weather to produce some truly memorable images! Personally, I switch to creating grey-scale or black and white images when the sun is hiding! This is a much ignored area of photography in which we can create some really stunning and dramatic images!
And not to insult anyone but when you bought your camera, whatever model it was, did you read the instruction manual that came with it? Probably not! As an Information Technology Mr Fix it for a large Information Technology company, it never ceases to amaze me that people simply do not read the instruction manual. This is not just for cameras and computers but anything electronic, such as vacuum cleaners, video tapes, I Pads, I Pods, mobile phones etc!
A bit of interesting information
Before moving onto the subject matter of learning a number of properties that expand our skills range in using camera's, there is a fascinating fact to these images we take and the very same unwanted, unloved photographs, could quite possibly be worth money and quite a bit of it! And before anything else, this does not involve signing up with agencies or acting as a freelance photographer or anything of that nature. In fact, you don't even have to create a web site in order to do it! More details on this later!
Although we take images to present early after taking them, those that are stored away I like to equate old photographs to antiques! Every now and again, as we see on TV, someone with an ancient piece of furniture or an artifact for professional evaluation and is stunned to find that it's part of some long, lost lineage that's worth literally thousands of pounds!
Now, that's not to say that a single photo hidden away in your photo storage or even a series of photographs is worth thousands of pounds or dollars in a single evaluation but there are ways to make money from them! Nor does it involve being a professional photographer with affiliations to hundreds of agencies paying for them!
Still a mystery?
In spite of camera's having been around for quite some time and the fact that millions of us have them, the properties and functions of how they operate are still something of a mystery! This article directs you to a Free Report that demonstrates in a simple way a few important but basic properties that will expand your knowledge and improve your skills in image taking immeasurably in a short space of time!
We may well recognise terms such as shutter speed, aperture, f-stops etc but they are words and phrases that mean little to many and yet they are fundamental properties in understanding how to take an image professionally if we are to make even the most basic use of this expensive item we have! Just a little time spent learning these in an understandable way can make all the difference!
To obtain this information that will propel you from being a happy snapper to someone who can show their images with pride and be envied by friends and family alike, please see the link below.
