MY HOBBY PHOTOGRAPHY - Swathi

Hello Friends,

I am going to tell about my Hobby, yes am very much excited to share  about my experience in Photography. In India a women photographer is very rare to see but my father encourage me to study more about camera. I joined my course and in the mean time I applied for my part time job to help myself for my study expenses. after my studies it became my professional and my hobby(I can say my life). Capturing at right time is very much fun, now everybody love to take photos all having their smartphone but having a professional camera and capturing is very good.

Probably the only really tough part is to decide what kind of photography you would like to focus on – while some people enjoy landscape photography, some specialize in portraits and some love children, nature and wildlife photography.

Ultimately, you will become a good photographer only by going out there and shooting pictures. Here are some tips that will help you develop your photography skills.

- Make sure you always carry your camera. Why miss some wonderful pictures simply because you forgot to bring your camera?

- Get really familiar with your camera. Try out all the features it has, several times over. You don’t want to fumble when it comes to figuring out what that sign on your camera means when there is a really exclusive shot waiting to be taken.

- The more pictures you shoot, the better you get. This is easier with a digital camera as the number of photos you can take is unlimited. Take several pictures of the same thing from different angles. Apart from preserving your memories, it helps you analyse how you can improve. By critiquing your own pictures you can figure out how it could be better composed. Watch for flaws and learn from them.

 

- Even if you have learned the basics of photography, you must still respect your instincts for the right angle when you click a picture.

- Always back up your work. Each picture you click is an original – and who knows – a masterpiece. The first thing you want to do is back up all your pictures.

 

It is important to interact with other photographers. The best way to do this is to become a part of online forums and camera clubs. Browse around and you will find plenty of excellent groups that eat, sleep and breathe photography. These forum members are usually more than ready to answer any queries or doubts you might have related to the subject. It is a good idea to become a member of a group whose interests are similar to yours. You will find a wealth of information in terms of tutorials, tips on improving your techniques, equipment reviews and so on.

Thank you Friends, Hope you enjoyed
