Article Plus Blog Post

The article I read was ICE SHOTS, for winter's best nature close-ups, try a shore thing. It mainly talks about the camera hey used, a SD400 cannon power shot. It was also about how he bubles themselves should form a pleasing pattern. and how the over all ice can be really obscure. and how the crystal formations can mask the subject very well and that you should pore warm water over the ice before taking a picture. The shots were taken from a 45-degree angle to the ice's surface. This plays up the subjects shape and penetrates the ice.

KWL

To be totaly honest I do not know alot about photography. I know the basics. How to turn it on, take a picture and download it to a computer.
I guess that the reason why I went into this class. I want to know more about it, I want to know pleasing angles to shoot items. I want to know how to shoot a camera in a battle zone, or of a wild animal. I want to know how to take a basic picture and turn it into pure perfection... I want to know about how to use the other options on the camera that make it even more beautiful or complicated.
So there you have it, I do not know alot about photography, but I want to know everything there is to know about the modern camera.
