Photography

The power of imaging has been empirically time tested and is here to stay
As they say one candid photograph can let one’s emotions lose its way
The picture speaks a thousand words the wise nodding their head cheerfully say
The eyes will take over and you will realize that the ears are no longer in the fray

You can look at the world uniquely through the power of your lens
You can notice the raw elements of composition across multiple scenes
You can capture the worldly charm and appeal to people’s aesthetic sense
You can make people appreciate beauty and look beyond their life of pretence

You can choose your locale, the background, the ambience and the surrounding light
You can have your pick of accessories from a range of cameras, lenses, filters and reflectors
All you need to do is get smitten by the shutterbug, let yourself loose and go on clicking
Capture everyday settings of life and narrate your story and make it real and gripping

Holding your camera at the subject’s eye level will capture the magnetic gaze and cheesy smiles
Choosing your background will help you avoid any painful distraction and emphasize your subject
Being aware of your maximum flash range will help you lend the right colour and glorify your day
Using the flash outdoors will help you lighten dark shadows or brighten a face on a cloudy day

To create an impactful picture you may like to move in close and fill your picture with the subject
Using the zoom till the subject fills up the view finder will help bring out the details of the subject
Occasionally you may like to breathe life into your picture by simply placing the subject off centre
Locking the focus and re-framing your picture will render a sharp clarity during your playful saunter


At times you feel like taking some vertical pictures and you consciously turn you camera sideways
You need to be aware of your flash’s range and when to get down to your subject’s eye level
Studying the effects of light in your pictures can help you better manage shadows and natural colour
You are the picture director and can rearrange your subjects to let their own personalities shine

You can paint your canvas and let the beauty of the image capture the viewer’s imagination
Your sample pictures that you capture may very much end up being a beginner’s inspiration
Your sense of timing reflected through hand-eye coordination captures the audience’s attention
It is so much fun to breathe life and narrate your own stories by bringing novelty into your creations!
