RE: Tree Tuesday Time!

in #treetuesday7 years ago

The last bark photo!! So beautiful! Wouldn't that be fab on a wall? or a piece of furniture? I think.

I don't get the thing with the bent branch? And no I didn't dye my hair blonde.

How do you capture the upward shots? I tried and failed. What settings did you use on your camera?? Please??

I don't ask many questions, do I?

Here's my budding photos.

Sort:  

Well I wasnt trying to do a secret meaning or even double entendre. I just never seawa branch that grows in nearly a circle. Do you?

On the upwards shots, the settings always depends if you want a lot of the trunk in focus or just a sliver. If you want a sliver you use a lower f/stop aperture setting. If you want as much of the trunk in focus, you use a large f/stop number. I chose to split the difference and go with f/8 according to the camera data.

My short 2 minute vid might help some...

You should post this video - super helpful. You're a way better teacher than the photography videos I watch. The demonstration was very good for me bc I am a visual learner. Thank you my friend, I sincerely appreciate you posting this and for the f/stop info.

After I get my taxes done tomorrow....I am hoping to get out and get some bird photos. My lens is not broken. Hurray!!
