Awesome ...

.... and getting awesomer by the minute! I mean this in the context of photography.

(POST FOR JUNE 1ST)


What i think i actually mean .... is that I'm THOROUGLY ENJOYING all the time that i'm spending with my camera these days. All the trials, errors, blunders, disasters... and the rare good shots! I'm learning new things with every shot ... or so i'd like to believe. ;)

An importing thing i learned, which helped solve a lot of problems, was the importance of natural light. Its so much easier to take pictures outdoors. Especially since it also solves the problem of shaky hands.

Just now, since i'm mostly at home, i have to be content with taking macro shots of the phool-patti around... Sometimes portraits too, which i totally suck at. (Tinni takes awesome portraits.) But its fun to do marco shots and i think i'm getting better at them!

I've been going to our farm house/factory frequently. There's a lot of nature photography to do there, again mostly macro in my case. But it is a lot of fun. At this time of the year, its pretty bright even at 5p.m. and its almost the perfect time for photography.
Oh! i saw i real live snake there today! It was small. 1.5-2 feet only. But the lady who works there said it's poisonous. She said they call it 'harharia saanp'.



This month, i'm planning to take as many photos as i can and upload at least 3 photos a week on my Flickr and Deviantart accounts. If you happen to see them, do give me your views - i appreciate criticism!

Btw, there are loads of people with unbelievable amount of talent on these sites. It's a real honour to see their work ... and learn from it .. coz copying them is just not possible... real geniuses!!

----------------------------------

Enough about this now. Time for a celebration. Go get me one. Coz i got another awaaarrrdd ! :D Thanks Mads for this one ! :D

----------------------------------

That's it from me for now.
Until next time ....
