Photography

Photography
Photography is the technique of recording and generating permanent images, by the capturing and preservation of physical stimulus-patterns on a layer of photosensitive material. It involves recording light patterns as reflected from objects, on to a sensitive medium through momentary exposure. The process is done through mechanical, chemical or digital devices commonly known as camera.

The word comes from the Greek words phos ("light"), and graphis ("stylus", "paintbrush") or graph, together meaning "drawing with light" or "representation by means of lines", "drawing".

KINDS OF LIGHTS
1. NATURAL LIGHT 2. SPEEDLIGHT (STROBES, BUILT-IN FLASH) 3. ARTIFICIAL LIGHT

TRINITY OF EXPOSURE
SHUTTER SPEED
APERTURE ISO (INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS ORGANIZATION)

SHUTTER SPEED

- SLOWER SHUTTER SPEED (BLURS) - F9, 1/20, ISO 400

F 32, 30, ISO 200

-F 10, 25, ISO 100

Faster shutter SPEED

F 1.8, 1/200, ISO 500
Tip: 1/60 is the safest shutter speed to avoid blurs. The slower the shutter speed the more light it captures but it blurs motion. Freeze action are from 1/100-above.

Tips Narrative Engage

take photos that try to narrate a story

the viewer/audience should be involved, there should be connection

Attentive

Anticipate things

Patience

take time in taking pictures dont be contended

Read

read photographic materials

Practice

practice makes perfect
