hdr-photo

This post covers 35 extremely beautiful and perfectly executed HDR-pictures. Some of them may look real, too colorful, even magic or fake, but they do not – keep in mind that they all had developed from regular photos, and not a single image of the illustration.

hdr images

Applied carefully, High Dynamic Range-technique (HDR) can create beautiful images that obscure our understanding of the difference between reality and illusion. In graphics HDR imaging is a set of techniques that allow a far greater dynamic range than a normal exhibition of digital imaging techniques. The goal is to accurately represent the various levels of intensity in real scenes ranging from direct sunlight to the deepest shadows. This is usually achieved by modifying photos with image processing software for tone mapping. And the results can be truly amazing, in fact, many artists and designers to achieve results quite luxurious.

Photography ideas: minimalist photography

Posted by admin On October - 31 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

images of photographers

“Simplicity and repose are the qualities that measure the actual value of any work of art.”

I’m sure all of you, as photographers, at one time or another, we were told that the higher your focal point is emphasized in your photo, the more it is clear to the viewer and the more successful you are to out the purpose and meaning of your work for them.

A perfect composition is simple. One that does not give rise to mixed emotions and confusion once considered. One of the most basic guidelines to compose a picture perfect, and I am sure that everyone is well aware of this, the viewer is guided smoothly through our peaceful image based eye to the main subject. For this, we often incorporate lines of our pictures. We make the best use of light and contrast. We use the rule of thirds, etc …
photography minimalist idea
Often this is what you choose to exclude your composition, rather than what you choose to include, making the shot! Using the empty spaces in your photos and give your subject room to breathe and shine can accentuate and add to its value rather than harm. In this way, the viewer can not help but be attracted to your focal point. There is no confusion or the intrusion of other elements competing for space with your subject, but himself!
portrait photography ideas
Sometimes, the subject would be small compared to the regime of photo together. So to be able to dominate the frame, it must be carefully chosen, well represented, and often approached from a new perspective and fresh.
photography ideas
Try to represent your subject in a color contrasting with the overall image. Try to strip everything but the point of interest, of all colors. Experiment with different aperture settings (once going with a shallow depth of field and once with a large). Zoom in or out on your subject for a variety of angles, views and results.

Photography Tips – how to take great photos

Posted by admin On October - 28 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

photography how to

Photography is all about paying attention to detail … care of the little things that improve your bottom line. Here are five tips to get you started and help you take some pictures great.

1.Good composition, great photographs

When you see through the viewfinder or the LCD screen of your camera, giving some extra attention to the scene which is covered under goes a long way doing “great”. Pay attention to how much cover you from the stage, how much you zoom in or out, layout and placement on the subject of the course gives you a great composition. And if you can, try to remember a few rules of basic composition and you can create wonderful works of art in no time.

2.Concentrate on the subject

Digital cameras can be tricky. Sometimes they try to be intelligent and automatic focus on objects in the background or elsewhere in the scene. Make sure the focus is on the subject.
how to take pictures
3.Using the flash

If you use one of the modes of self, the camera takes care of the light and the flash pops-up automatically. However, the flash still has side effects and artifacts of the scene. This is especially true for night photos where the subject becomes a shadow of congestion or red eye. Avoid using the flash as much as possible (especially the flash unit). If the flash-automatically, try increasing the ambient light.

4.Pull on interesting topics

While anything can be used as a subject, taking a moment to think what could be an interesting result final / photograph may be all you need to take the perfect shot. Smoke, water, lines and patterns, all the illusions of a photo interesting and catch the eye of the beholder. So take a moment to reflect and then frame and shoot. Now, there may be times when you are shooting action. This rule does not apply here.
photo tips
5.Experience matters (Shooting at Grand)

Experience is what makes a professional photographer and an artist. Do not be discouraged with your first few shots. Try again, learn from your mistakes and improve. In no time you will be shooting amazing pictures. And when you do this, remember to take a paper and frame it on your desk or in your room. Be proud of your shot and do not forget to share with us.

Studio Lighting for Elegant Portraits

Posted by admin On October - 24 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

studio lighting

When you are new portrait studio photography, studio lighting may seem difficult, mysterious and even disturbing at a time. You can read ten different books on lighting by “experts”, and quite likely you will get ten totally different opinions on what constitutes good lighting. Maybe it’s because “correct” lighting for studio portraits is just that, a matter of opinion. Yes, there are classic styles of lighting such as: open loop, closed loop, butterfly or Paramount, broad lighting, short lighting, and so on.

But ninety nine percent of the time, customers who come into your studio does not care about the technical aspects of lighting, or classic styles of lighting. They just want to look great in their portraits, and it’s your job as a professional portrait photographer to help them do just that. The lighting system used in my portrait studio is easy to understand, easy to work, and it helps our clients look their best.

Our typical lighting system consists of three strobe lights with a “light hair” etc. strobe used as required. First, the light key is the main light source in the lighting system and is used to outline the face and add depth and interest in the subject. The key LED is what allows the subject in three dimensions to be given in a two-dimensional plane, still perceived as an image in three dimensions. The light the key light in the configuration of our studio is mounted on a stand studio Titan Side Kick. The beauty of this stand is that it is very stable, has locking casters so it is easily repositioned, and the height of lighting of the keys is easily adjustable with the “simple touch” adjustable
arm. The key light is usually the only strobe in our setup that is repositioned during a photo shoot.
photo studio lighting
The key illumination is changed by means of a parabolic reflector, umbrella or shoot through umbrella reflection, a light box (several sizes can be used), or by other means, thus achieving in each portrait, the desired effect. A guideline to remember is: at a given distance between the light source and the subject, the more the light source, the most severe of the incident light and sharper (more contrast) the shadows. Choose the modifier accordingly to achieve the desired effect for your portrait (modifiers of light that is in descending order of contrast: 6 “parabolic reflector, 16″ parabolic reflector, 40 “reflecting umbrella, 40″ pull through the umbrella, softbox 3′x4 ‘, 4 “x6″ softbox). The key light is then measured (independently) to F11. This can be accomplished by adjusting the flash output, and / or the distance between the light and the key of the object.

During the shoot, the illumination of the object remains constant when you reposition the key light, as the distance between the key light and the subject remains constant. This fact is useful to keep in mind for a reason. It allows you to quickly move your key light for different desired effects without any re-count. View your subject is at the hub of a wheel, the radius of the wheel being equal to the distance (between the light and the key to your subject) who gave you the F11 key. The button light can be moved in any position around the perimeter of the wheel of the imagination, with the lighting of your subject while remaining a constant F11.
photography studio lights
Second, task lighting is used as contrast control by filling the “sockets and pockets” of your subject. The light-up in our play of light is placed permanently to about 15 feet of the subject, directly in front of the whole. It is raised to a height of about ten to eleven feet above the ground, so we are able to shoot from directly under the fill light if necessary. The light is diffused by filling a large box fresh and oriented (angled) direct the subject’s face. It is usually measured (independently) to f5.6, adjusting the power of the strobe. This gives a ratio of light on your subject of about 1:4.

The strobe on commonly used in our studio lighting system, is the light hair. It is used to separate the subject from the background and to accentuate the subject’s hair and shoulders. Light hair can be positioned low or high behind the subject according to the desired effect, and modifiers such as a snoot or a grid spot can be used to guide and focus the light as desired. Whether or not the light hair is used depends on the subject of hair color for the background and the desired effect for the portrait (eg dark hair disappears on a dark background and requires light hair as a separator)
photography lighting
Beyond posing your subject in a manner flattering lighting of your subject is the easiest skill you must master to create unique portraits. Your lighting should not be too complex, and your device may not be the latest and greatest. However, you must develop a basic understanding of the contrast ratio of light and how to control light to create portraits masterfully elegant and beautiful. The lighting system described above can be a good starting point. It is very simple to understand and easy to use, generally, only the key light is repositioned during a photo shoot. From there, the experience and practice to achieve the results you expect. As always, good day and happy clicking.

Great photographer outdoor portraits

Posted by admin On October - 23 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

professional portrait photographer

You know that outdoor photography can present some very special challenges. This is true even for the most experienced photographers. Direct sunlight can be harsh. Unwanted objects can interfere with your composition. Render the right color can be a problem. And many times, good old Mother Nature is not feeling cooperative. Probably, not much can be done about nature, but with some practice and patience you can overcome many other challenges that you face as a photographer outdoor portraits.

portrait pictures

Throughout my travels as a photographer I have learned some techniques that may be useful outside for those who choose to follow:

1. Keep it simple. Subtle pattern and color of brick walls, a simple repeating patterns and muted tones on board fishing pier, or uniform color of a patch of blue hat, snapdragons, or yellow primrose can serve as a beautiful backdrop for your outdoor portraits. When you create your portrait, you want your subject to be the focal point that all interested eyes. Busy patterns, large areas that are too bright colors (especially a mixture of different colors), or more imposing forms in the foreground or background that is not treated properly, can actually divert attention from him if you do not watch the liver.

2. Controlling depth of field (range of distances from your camera to focus). Edge of the forest, or mountains in the distance can make a beautiful backdrop for your subject with precise control over depth of field. If you have an SLR camera, you can adjust your depth of field to bring the background more or less out of focus relative to your subject. It serves as a control for the observer of your portrait subject. The eye is naturally drawn to what is the brightest and most sharply focused. If the subject is focused sharply relative to the background, he will highlight the focal point of your portrait. Controlling depth of field is done by adjusting your aperture setting (the size of your lens opening, expressed in f-stops). The smaller the f-stop larger opening of your lens, and the smaller the depth of field will be. For example, when you see a photograph in the magazine nature of the beautiful butterfly in a patch of flowers, and butterflies in razor sharp focus but the flowers are gently blurred; is done by a photographer using a narrow depth of field (small f-stop setting). For bright light situations it may be difficult to achieve. For any given intensity of light, once you open the aperture (low f-stop) you must increase the shutter speed (thereby reducing the exposure time) to avoid over exposure. Increasing the shutter speed generally reduces resolution in the image. Experiment to find the combination of aperture and shutter speed settings that deliver the results you want.

3. Be aware of disturbing objects behind your subject. What is clear bushes, mailboxes, or bird cage to your eye, can appear like an additional appendage that grows on the head of your subject in your two dimensional portrait. You might get some interesting effects this way, but generally they will not make a good impression on your subject. Take the time to find interesting angles that eliminate disturbing objects from the background.

4. Control of light. “Bottom light” (eg harsh light of day) is generally not desirable. Because the pattern of shadows it creates, can bring out the worst in your subject … can anyone say, “raccoon eyes”? “Light of lateral” (eg morning and afternoon light) is much more desirable. Lateral light can be controlled and directed to create shadow patterns are beautiful in your subject’s face. There is a saying with a lot of photographers who shoot outdoors, “is the first tree in the forest of the best” for the background. Because the first tree canopy to control light down hard, but being on the edge of the forest, you still have a light lateral work with. The same idea applies to the edge of the patio or any other type of overhang. Professional photographers sometimes use shade cloth and reflectors to block down light while directing available lateral light to enhance their subject and achieve the desired effect.

5. True colors. Before the digital age, corrective filters or special films that are mostly used for color correction in outdoor portraits. With digital cameras, color can be corrected using your white balance settings (expressed as color temperature in degrees Kelvin). Most digital cameras do a pretty good job automatically adjusts white balance for outdoor exposure. If you want to experiment with manual white balance settings you use the table below as a guide. For a more detailed understanding of the meaning of the color temperature correction
portrait photographers
Temperature … … … .. Typical sources

1000K … … … … … … … Candles; lamp oil

2400K … … … … … … … Early morning sunrise

3200K … … … … … … … Tungsten light bulbs

4000K … … … … … … … Fluorescent

5200K … … … … … … … Typical daytime; electronic flash

6000K … … … … … … … Day of Publication

7000K … … … … … … … Shade

Keeping your composition simple, controlling depth of field, and remove objects that can distract from your subject, helping all to accentuate your subject as the focal point of your portrait. Controlling the available natural light and white balance improve your photographs can reveal and enhance the true beauty of your subject. Beyond this, make it your goal each day to unleash your creativity that you may see the world around you with fresh and unique way. Never satisfied with seeing regular as usual. Just stop and think for a moment, everything is there, which is unusual for someone. Art created by them with the ability to look beyond the ordinary, to interpret their world in an extraordinary way, and to reflect their interpretation for others to see. So, experiment and do not be afraid to try something new. The world is abundant in the shape, texture, color, and pattern of light … all the handy-work of God. Great landscape and man-made structures that are not required to incredible great photos outdoors. Mother Nature always work with you. Good day and happy clicking!

portrait photography tips

Posted by admin On October - 20 - 2011 ADD COMMENTS

The purpose of this paper is to provide information about how I work, based on various questions I receive regularly. I mainly focus on the portrait is planned with the model. Sometimes I define my job as a fashion portrait Although my main concern is trying to tell a story.

posing your models

Inspiration

To make the meeting run smoothly, it is safer to plan it as possible. Before taking the model, the better you know at all clear what you are aiming. I started looking around for inspiration, read books, watch the filming on the street, magazines, or online. I collect pictures that can help me explain what I’m looking for models.
Do not overlook this stage. Almost all my models are not professionals, they want to know which way we go along.

portraiture photography
Preparation

Once I got the idea, it’s time to find a place that can provide the necessary lighting atmosphere. I almost always use the light available during the session (no additional resources). Occasionally, someone to help me and bounced light with a reflector, but really, what you see is what you get.
As a result, the light often determine the pose of the model: If the face is dark, while the whole body gets a light weight, it is likely that the picture will not work.
Therefore, I always try to do some test shots before the meeting: it helps a lot!

The next step is discussion with the model, before the meeting. Show him / her a picture, describes the atmosphere of planet … This does not mean you have to plan every position or every expression: But once you set the mood and the idea that you want to transfer is an easy way to play with the “rules” and change them quickly. In addition, the model is more secure if they know what seat will look before you start it. Selection of clothing is also made in time: I also took items from the model shares, lease or buy.

Tips:

* Finding the model may be a difficult task. Try asking your friends first. View pictures or photos that inspire you, it will give a better idea. Be respectful and only publish images to their liking.

portrait photographers

The session

Summary

The seat itself lasts about 2 to 3 hours, resulting in approximately 150 images, which usually 5-10 are selected. As I said before, I sometimes ask for external assistance (lighting with reflector or makeup). We continued to talk while working, the goal is also to have fun!

Light

The light turns the mood images: Without good light, you will not get anything good.
So why not light it? Hmm, tough question.
Well first of all to match the Earth’s atmosphere. I’ll take an example. If you are looking for pictures of dark moody underground, you should pick the right place, for example, metropolitan station. Okay, there’s room? You will first see that it is very dark in there, so he asked the model to be closer to their large neon tubes in green. This is, light face and everything will be fine …
A mistake.
photographer portrait
The light is nothing without a trace. After the moderate face of the model is good but the ceiling fluorescent lights will do the shadows under the eyes of the model. In this case, I would advice to use a reflector on the chest, and pointed to the ceiling. This will avoid shadows.

Always remember this: light and shadow go together and create the atmosphere of your shot.

portrait photography tips
Tips:

* Shot in at the window often offers flattering light. However, if the sun came out clear, desirable to soften the light through the white cloth.
