photography kit and a new year begins 02 jan 2016 2 comments by chriscaff in photography photography technique tags exposure lens filters photography radio remote shutter release remote shutter trigger skies wildife last year i had to abandon a lot my garden photography crochet and sewing and my holidays and visits to friends why well a series of health issues cataracts ruined my vision and a severe health problem threatened my life everything went on hold but now i can see thanks to the brilliant new lens in my eye courtesy of the nhs and my health has improved dramatically thanks to my gp and a heart specialist we super celebrated new year as i m still here for it and i ve just been looking at other s achievements here on wordpress from last year i now feel inspired to make this year my best ever and to get this blog going with photography like never before tonight i can sit and plan a little i now have a radio controlled remote for my nikon d90 and love wildlife photography i can t go far yet but i feed lots of birds and have built a pond and garden for wildlife you can read more about that at earth and hearth but with my new kit i can stalk the wildlife from a distance as long as they land where i hope to lure them i can see to play with macro shots again now too i also have a gorilla tripod so hope to be able to get shots i couldn t get before and on top of that i have new graduated filters which help balance light and dark especially in bright skies and you can use them to allow longer exposures this is useful to make water appear smooth anyway here are the results of my first go with one of my new filters with a grey grad filter skies keep their colour without under exposing the foreground this sky should have been blue but had to over expose it to get the foreground right it s december on a campsite in cornwall rate this share this share on x opens in new window x share on reddit opens in new window reddit email a link to a friend opens in new

images photo photograph photography photoshop photography isn t just for me an end in itself as anyone reading this blog will know i like to use it to illustrate to investigate macro gives an insight into another world and to design recently i ve discovered card making not just a photo printed on a card but using photography to personalise cards and make them much more meaningful to the recipient i take shots of friends and family from my archives and give them the photoshop treatment then i print them as photos on photographic paper i then apply them to blank cards and add extra embellishments and personal greetings before popping them in the post everyone s so pleased with them i thought i d share the idea and some of the photos i ve used with you mum s birthday card mum loved her card despite being over eighty she looks great in marilyn mode i achieved this by going in photoshop to image black and white and adding here the colour i want by playing with the tint hue and saturation tabs once i has the colour set i took the image into the filter gallery in this case the film grain setting under the artistic tab finalised the effect you will need to play with the filter gallery as i ve found that each photo i work with for these effects can be surprisingly different it depends on background in the shot the contrast in the image the subject you are dealing with and many other factors but these effects are well worth exploring and it s quite fun to do give it a try once i had the image as i wanted it i added text picking the colour for text from the creamy white in the image so it all looks coordinated and works as a card front to give the card a border go to select all then select modify border choose the pixel width you want then go to edit fill and choose the colour you want your border to be you can use the colour picker to lift a colour from your image once you have the border as you want it go back to select and choose deselect you re now ready for printing this next picture has a completely different technique it utilizes the sketch photocopy function within the photo gallery and works well on clear uncluttered photos it seems to work well to comic effect as on this card birthday card sketch inside the card this last one is fairly simple i took a shot from a wedding speech and put it through the filter gallery here i used film grain and the adjustment tabs to the right to get the flattering film star effect on this photo film grain card recipients seem to love them so why not play in photoshop and see what you can do it s got to be better than buying one and you get to have fun in the process rate this share this share on x opens in new window x share on reddit opens in new window reddit email a link to a friend opens

photograph photography photography technique photos pictures plants there are fields behind our house i took a walk one day last week between downpours and found many more wildflowers than i d expected the land appears to be just grazing meadow so meadow flowers abound and i thought it would be a crying shame not to do something with them hence the camera and my enthusiasm came out it s a pity the light didn t even with a light conservatory it was difficult to get enough light through the lens for my macro lens and tubes in the end i settled for my standard lens and the macro tubes to get the details i wanted as i didn t want to resort to artificial light bush vetch wild comfrey hawksbit black meddick i wanted to capture the beauty others miss either they wouldn t even notice the flowers as some of them are tiny or they wouldn t stop to look maybe some of these photos will make you look twice next time you take a walk with the dog if you click on the photos you can see them much larger and in more detail i m planning a set of wildflower photos in macro for my website and therefore for sale quite soon i m not sure if these are going to be the shots probably not i ll need better light to get the top quality shots i want and time is important as these flowers will only be around for a short while rate this share this share on x opens in new window x share on reddit

back up and print photographs than a new life entering this world i have just spent my weekend visiting my son to meet my first grandchild he of course is the most gorgeous baby in the world my trusty nikon camera was there to record those precious moments that will never come again and i took plenty 133 to be exact some pictures are good some are great and some are no so good that s the reason to take so many to make sure i have a good selection of photos to treasure forever charlie my grandson two days old if you have an event that you d hate to miss or lose check your camera batteries before you set off ensure that once you ve captured your event with far more shots than you ll actually keep back them up can you imagine losing them then don t let it happen then start editing adjusting

photography photography technique tags camera flowers imagery photo photograph photography photography technique photoshop pictures i ve had time to experiment today macro photography is another world to explore and i like exploring here are some photos from todays batch the fine tuning in macro is time consuming and eye tiring i have to say what looks absolutely perfect when focusing doesn t always come out as clear as i d like so many shots are taken to get just one or two as i m often asked i m using a nikon d90 with a tamron 70 300mm macro lens and extension tubes i don t always focus on wildlife and flowers there are objects around the home that make interesting experimental pictures too here s a candle pot i gave the macro treatment candle pot height 3 candle pot macro attempt 1 candle pot macro attempt 2 pretty interesting and pretty interesting don t you think then there s the glass ball that is part of another ornament it s about 2 in circumference and has a pattern on it that intrigued me so here we are i ve played with the temperature and tint settings in adobe photoshop raw to get the colours glass ball macro 1 glass ball macro 2 but i couldn t resist totally the lovely colours and light on some flowers and plants today so here they are muscari macro leaf macro african violet macro see told you it s another world rate this share this share on x opens in new

17 comments by chriscaff in photography tags floral flowers macro nature photo photograph photography photography technique photos macro photography is wonderful mysterious and fascinating i was the kid with a microscope peeking into unknown worlds many years ago now i can do it with a camera macro lens and macro extensions today no gardening we re rained off my partner brought me flowers yesterday so out came the camera and macro kit i m always looking for a new fresh way to present flowers after all they are probably the most photographed subject apart from people people don t look good in macro and won t stay still so i prefer to work with nature and flowers in particular so today s shots have been fun to do light levels were not brilliant as it s raining so i used a white reflector behind the flowers raised the blinds in the conservatory and adjusted the exposure a little once i got the shots into the computer much has been said about photography and computers and fierce debates continue but i m all in favour of any tool or paintbox an artist can utilise minor adjustments to improve photos can only be a good thing in my book and allow more flexibility to the artist anyway here are the results of todays fun i hope you like them white dahlia macro perfect petals macro macro petals photo vision in white gypsophilla rate this share this share on x opens in
