lytro warm up

1. I saw that the focus on the picture changed. Every time you clicked on a different place on the photograph, the focus changed, it either got clear, or a bit blurry.

2. This camera takes pictures with a different focus, you can manage where the focus will be on the photograph that your going to take.

3. You need to know the rules of photography , and how to corporate them into the photograph. Your going to have to know what exactly your going to take a picture of.You can change the change the focus at anytime.

4.Yes, because it gives you the opportunity to change the focus on the thing that your going to be photographing. It takes the pictures differently than other cameras.

This ESPN the Magazine cover portrays Michael Jordan jumping against an all-white background in his Chicago Bulls uniform. Two weeks after winning his sixth title with the Bulls, the corresponding article speculates whether or not Jordan will retire from basketball. Jordan retired on January 13, 1999, but two years later signed a deal to play for the Washington Wizards. On April 16, 2003, Jordan played his last game and announced his final retirement.

tips

 Think about your motivation and emotions: Blankly staring at the camera rarely gets good results. Be silly, don’t be afraid to over-act. The worst that can happen is that you fill up your memory card with useless photos; but you might also find yourself with a proper gold-nugget of a self portrait.

 Use a tripod. Seriously. While it’s possible to get good photos while you’re hanging on to your camera at arms-length, it’s a lot easier if you’ve got the freedom to move around a bit.

 Focussing is easier if you use a smaller aperture; My favourite lens at the moment is the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4, (hence the abundance of photos taken with it on Flickr, I suppose) but I’d probably not use it wide-open when taking self portraits; It’s tricky enough to get the focus right when you’re behind the camera – when you’re on the wrong side of the lens, having a slightly deeper DOF is a lot easier!
