Weather Event - Taken Saturday 16th October

After a night of wild weather as the South East Corner was howled with wind and rain, we awoke to a magnificent blue sky. Something we haven't seen in quite a while! Such a beautiful day then a weird cloud appeared! How lucky was I to have my camera with.....Anywhere, Anytime........

The Confidence To Go Forth and Shoot

Friends will be there always for you, and as an Amateur photographer, friends become great subjects!
There is something about snapping some pics of your friends which is relaxing.  As much as I love a big smile looking straight into the camera, it is often nice just to get that pic of climbing trees, fishing, and all the unposed good times we share with friends.

My blog today is about the Confidence to Go Forth and Shoot.  Getting it all right at the time.  DSLR camera owners know the trick to a top pick is the M button.  Thats right, Manual.  Where shutter speed, and iso, WB, Flash, F stop all come into play.  This is the reason why at the moment I am happy just shooting my friends.  Friends have patience, and I need patient subjects to get the lighting and exposure right!

This is probably the next step in my photography confidence.  I understand the factors, I would just like to acquire the knowledge of being able to do this all in my head, instead of relying on that test shot or 10.

Thanks to the beautiful Roberts Boys who were the most patient beautiful subjects on Sunday afternoon.
