JOSH & HEIDI'S POST & BIRDHOUSE
"A PHOTOGRAPH IS AN EXTENSION OF THE MIND'S EYE." So were the words of a teacher I once had in an evening course at Windsor High in 1977.
Too many amateur photographers simply do not compose their works. I always do. My friends have been complimentary in my efforts. Thanks!
Today photography is incredibly advanced in all aspects it is simple. Not really.
Tips I'd like to share:
- Always have the sun behind you. It is Nature's spot light.
- Try to work around power lines.
- Do not be in a hurry.
- Shoot more than one pix from different angles.
- Embrace the season.
- Tell a picture with your photos.
- Walgreens is an excellent source of high-tech developers.
- Take a course ins photography.
- Today I have a NIKON-D40 with an Infinitive HIGH PERFORMANCE SHDC memory CARD 16.0 gb WITH A CAPACITY OF 2000 IMAGES.
- I SIMPLY DOWN LOAD THEM IN MY ALL-IN-ONE HP -PC.
- BE YOUR OWN PHOTO-EDITOR!
I began taking pictures with my Brownie as a boy! Mail-Away Photo in Fitchburg was at two week wait. All photo's were black and white. Kodachrome was the exception.
In college I borrowed my roommate's SLR on a trip to the Rockies and the Garden of the Gods. KODAK gave me some fine memories. In 1998 estranged cousin Paul J. Kizzle for me credentialed as an AP Photographer. Once again I put some thought in my work and got some fine results. I even used a Panoramic camera!
I have worked with professionals. Dan Sheehan of the Boston Globe and Paul Vathis at the 1964 World Series in St. Louis. I was a runner!
- TIP - TAke time to get the shoe boxes of nascent images- and bring them back to life. Your family will appreciate them. Brother-in Law, Ray Morin, has an incredible talent in making decoupages of family memories! There's POWER IN PICTURES if only we take them seriously. The Salvation Army in our lives sell picture frames for nothing
- Get fancy.. have enlargements made and matte them.
GET THE PICTURE? lol
My wealth - My grandchildren!
- Document your vacations. When I returned to Vietnam in 1998 I shot 5 throwaway cameras and had pix developed along the way.
