with in our everyday lives, either happy or sad, good or bad, excited or sorrow, love or hate, smiles or frowns, cries or joys...a rare special moments that needs to be captured and to be kept forever...Photos are for keeps.. it rekindles our emotions and memories for years to come... "


To give you some ideas on How To take Geat Photos. Here are the Top 10 Tips for Great Pictures by Kodak.

1. Get down on the level of what you're picturing.
2. Use a plain background.
3. Use flash outdoors.
4. Move in close to what you're picturing.
5. Take some vertical pictures.
6. Lock the focus.
7. Move it from the middle.
8. Know your flash's range.
9. Watch the light.
10. Be a picture director. Instruct the people your taking picture of on what poses they should do.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PHOTOGRAPHING PEOPLE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



HAVE FUN !
Dont work too hard to position your subject. The goal is for him to relax and fall into a natural pose. Try shootingit in your subject's favorite place, or at least a comfortable place. Meaningful props, like throphy, a musical instrument, or even a fish, can add interest.


G E T C L O S E
Fill the camera's viewfinder or LCD display with your subject to create pictures with greater impact. Step in close or use your camera's zoom to emphasize what is important and exclude the rest. Check the manual for your camera's closest focusing distance





Tak
e Candid Pictures
Ignore the impulse to force your subjects to always pose staring at the camera. Variety is important. Take candid pictures to show them working, playing, leaning against a banister chatting, or relaxing.




Use Natural Light
You may be surprised to learn that cloudy, overcast days provide the best lighting for pictures of people. Bright sun makes people squint, and it throws harsh shadows on their faces. On overcast days, the soft light flatters faces. Indoors, try turning off the flash and use the light coming in from a window to give your subject a soft, almost glowing appearance.





Avoid harsh shadows
Avoid harsh facial shadows by using the soft lighting of a cloudy day or a shady area. On sunny days, if your camera has several flash modes, select Fill-Flash. This will fire the flash even in bright sunlight. This "fills" the shadows on nearby subjects, creating more flattering portraits in direct sunlight. Check your camera's manual.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PHOTOGRAPHING ANIMALS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Be Patient
Keep picture-taking sessions short and your voice calm. try to tale pictures during natural activities rather than direct your pet during this new activity called picture taking
Use props to focus attention
If your pet isn't a willing poser, use a flower, a toy, or a small snack to get its attention.




Shoot at eye level
Eye-to-eye contact is as engaging with a pet as with a person. So get down on your pet's level to create warm and intimate pictures.
Get close
Fill the camera's viewfinder or LCD display with your subject to create pictures with greater impact. Step in close or use your camera's zoom to emphasize what is important and exclude the rest. Check the manual for your camera's closest focusing distance.
Show your pet in action
Animals love to run and play, so take pictures of them on the go to show their joy. Use a high-speed (400 or 800) film to stop the action. Plan the shot for the action to happen in one spot and focus on that spot.
Take lots of pictures
Take lots of pictures to increase your chance of capturing just the right moment. Even the pros take lots of pictures and think nothing of shooting a whole roll just to get that one great shot.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

rresistible subjects: landscapes, gardens and individual flowers, trees, waterfalls, and animals. The next time you explore Mother Nature, take these helpful tips with you and bring back some amazing pictures
