What's Making a Good Photos?
Photo is a good image that contains the message. Messages can be a statement (This is the Lake Toba), the impression (in the atmosphere of Sunset Lake Toba), or emotional expression (Due Love on Lake Toba). Bagusadalah message that the message clear, firm and effective. But how?
Messages need a subject. About what you want to submit. That can only be one you know, scene, or abstract forms. POI is a central subject and is usually placed in the foreground. Then we set up the message by entering the second, the context, often as background. Context provides the relevance, availability, location, subject, or other interests. Message is a combination of two elements of the subject and context, background and foreground that talk about message.
As the importance of knowing what they need to include in the message, we also need to know what that is not necessary to include in the message. which is not part of the subject or context of the message that we created, then it is only a shard of thorns or disrupt, scratch-scratch image and create a message we are not clear. So subtract the parts that are not relevant in the vicinity of POI with beringsut usually closer to the subject, or move to get a better viewpoint and make a shot and clear. A painter creates art with the addition of adding what he painted while photographers create art with the reduction of the parts that do not need to.
Recipe for a good photographs are:
"A foreground, a background, and there is no other."
What's Making Photo Extraordinary?
Extraordinary images directly hit the eye. While the proverb says: picture may say a thousand words, the extraordinary photos only say only one word: Wow!
Photo is a remarkable work of art. He was recording the spirit of the subject and inspire emotion. Bob Krist called The Spirit of Place. You can also use tricks palpable awe visitors to your picture gallery. Let's see how.
An image is a play park, there are places where our eyes roam and observe, also the space where we rested and relax. When we first see something, we are not to be affected. Mata ago we naturally find a light, bright area, and search for people, usually in the eyes and mouth. Do we know who is in the picture? What they feel and how they relate to us? Whether they pay attention to the envisaged something? If so, what is it we (a building, a landmark) and what it was like? About whether the picture? What subject or purpose? How big the subject? We determine the scale to compare with the elements with something that we know its size, such as people, animals, or the car. Once we finished the people and the elements that are associated, we continue our attention to elements of the more abstract.
First we observe the color or tone subject. Red burn, blue-nan quiet, natural green, black coaly. Then we see the shape. Kurva soft, rigid angles, lines that sweep. Light on the subject of how to provide shade dimensinya three fine form. You, as a photographer, can manipulate all of this by looking for light and dark, replace the intensity of tone and hue. How to drag in the image?
Guide us in the form of texture, how the subject feels in touch. soft it, he soft, hard or rough? What has the character and warmth? How the elements and comparability influenced by the same light, make us consider their quality and relevance. The balance of our lead from one element to another element, unity examine, contrast, and details, adding each item to the next item preoccupation. What relation to one another from all that?
As an artist, you are on the options that will express the sense of your art. Composition as a whole, the proportion of layout, presentation of the elements that important, you can determine which features you need, and what is best to emphasize your message.
Recipes for extraordinary images are:
Consider how the elements related to the overall.
What Photo Eye Make-CATCHING?
Back to the nature of eye-CATCHING of extraordinary images, following a secret, only 4 keywords: simplicity, color, light and depth.
Simplicity: Simplicity in art also known as visual economy, which is to eliminate all elements or detail that does not need that is not in the spirit of contributing to the overall composition.
Simplicity can be achieved with a number of ways:
* subtract the amount and type of object that will object
* Taking a closer on the subject, or zooming when lensa can zoom-in
* You can also eliminate the elements that need not be through the photoshop
Color: To create impact on the image you are looking for patterns with colors that stand out. red a flowers, blue sky, yellow of dusk, or green foliage. Once again, simplicity is the key to try to reduce the number and type of color in a shot for you to give more impact. In general, an image should have only one main subject and a main color. concentration only on one of the three primary colors: red, blue or yellow. Three dominant color is very good with color diseimbangkan-color komplemennya, namely: red with green, blue with orange, and yellow with purple.
There are several ways to show color, the first is to use polarizer filters. The second way to limit the range of dark to light. Remove the area that is too dark or too light compared to your main subject. How to use third Velvia slide film. How these four: select the best time in accordance with the purpose of your photos:
5: Morning: the color pink, light and a very fine gauze to lakes, rivers and scenery.
6 hours: Sunrise: Light intricate, golden. Pas to the subject-subject to the east.
10 14: Noon: not suitable for the scene and photo people, but it is good to photo buildings and monuments. Colors of the building and recorded the details very well.
14 hours 16 minutes Afternoon: The sky is blue with a polarizer.
16 hours 18: Sunset day: Light a warm, golden. Pas to the subject-subject to the west. The best time for the landscape and people, especially one hour before sunset.
18 18.30 hrs: Sunset: The sky is beautiful, starting 10 minutes before sunset until 10 minutes after.
18.30 19.30 hours: Sunset: Photo of a beautiful night, lamp lighting while the sky is still visible violet.
Lighting: Lighting is often a key to good photographs champion. Use a light afternoon effectively can also improve your image. To achieve seindah photo in National Geographic, use a photo when a light golden color appear after sunrise and before sunset, often called the magic hour among photographers. Try to see more details of the best times in the top.
Depth: Include the depth of feeling on your picture. Depth can be achieved with the DOF, the placement of the elements in the images, and lighting.
Hopefully, with the practice-explanation explanation in this article, me and my colleagues the other can create a better image. Aamien.

photo tips make a good
Basic knowledge of Digital Camera - PART 2
Label: Kamera . Digital- The camera's sensor size digital camera, compared with analog
- Use of ISO on digital cameras
- Focal length of the DSLR SLR
The size of the camera's digital sensor, compared with analog camera
As I utarakan in the previous article. Prosumer digital cameras and consumer class have CCD sensor / CMOS is very small. As a comparison, please see the picture below.
The camera uses a 1/1.8 sensor is usually a camera consumer class, for example: Olympus C-5060. Camera that uses 2 / 3 sensor, for example: Sony F717, Nikon 5700. Class DSLR sensor using a larger, such as the Canon D60 using 4 / 3 format. To date, the only one that has a digital camera sensor is 35mm, the camera is the Canon 1Ds. If you want to know your camera's sensor size, please check your camera's data sheet, can be obtained from www.dpreview.com or www.imaging-resource.com
Total pixels of sensor 2 / 3 to 4 / 3 can be the same, for example: 4 Megapixel (4 million pixels). That distinguishes them is the size of pixels. The more knowledgeable of the sensor also has a greater pixelnya. Pixels will be a greater benefit on the use of high ISO.
Use of ISO on digital cameras
By using a larger sensor then automatically pixelnya also greater. A larger pixels enable us to use a higher ISO. Therefore do not surprised if some DSLR have ISO settings up to 3200. Where is the camera's prosumer class, such as G3, ISO 400 will produce images with a very high noise. This is all due to the sensor size, the bigger the better. But of course the sensor is one of the most expensive component in the digital camera.
Because the digital camera does not have the ISO setting the film made by electronic devices in your camera. When you change the ISO value instance of ISO100 to ISO200, sensitivity sensor in the camera you raised. And in the electronic world, nothing is perfect. There is always something to trade. While ISO improved sensor camera is set so that you more sensitive to light. For example when using ISO100 you must use SHUTTER speed 1 / 15, when you increase the ISO rating automatically become the ISO200 SHUTTER speed to 1 / 30 (1 stop difference). The down side is, if the sensors will be so easy to catch the sensor noise. The speck concrete noise-The speck in your picture, noise will be more clearly visible when you try to take a shot on the situation of minimal light.
Another example, if you like listening to a song with the Hi Fi device, if a small volume of the voice that will appear clear. But when you try to increase volume, then in a voice that appears when there will be broken. Roughly like this is that noise.
Focal length of the DSLR SLR
Under this explanation is only useful for the SLR and DSLR, prosumer-class cameras do not need a headache because of focal length lens on the camera is connected to die. When you buy tele 100mm lens and SLR cameras installed to you, then it is a 100mm focal length lens you. But when you install the same lens on the Canon 300D DSLR example, the focal length that is not 100mm, but 160mm (100mm x 1.6). Actual focal length 100mm lens you will be, but the angle of view will make the results of your photos as if produced from 160mm lens. These relate to the size of your camera's sensor is smaller than 35mm. This only applies to camera sensors that have a size smaller than 35mm, Canon 1Ds does not have it over.
To have more details, please see the photo below. Full frame is the result of a 100mm lens mounted on the Canon 1Ds or SLR camera. Small box inside, is the result you get when we install the same lens on the Canon 10D or 300D.
Glance we think that we get lucky, because by buying the 100mm can produce 160mm. Indeed correct, cuman all this is only the illusion fokal long as you remain 100mm lens, only the resulting picture seems to come from 160mm lens. DOF (Depth of Field), which is also produced in accordance with the calculation 100mm lens, not 160mm. And one more thing which annoyed some people make when you love the wide lens (Wide angle lens), then you have to buy a wider lens to get the effect you want. Imagine a shot must use the lens in the 24mm SLR camera, but when you install your 24mm DSLR to the effective focal length to be 38.4 (24mm x 1.6). So to get a 24mm, you have to buy the lens wider. Of course, the width of the more expensive lenses, so for lovers of wide angle shot will disappointed with this limitation. Unless you use a Canon 1Ds of sensors that have a 35mm, so what you see is what you get.
Conclusion
It seems from the beginning that we read only the negative side cuman from a digital camera. In fact, if would like to see the positive side, the negative side it can be overlooked. Imagine you do not need to buy film again, need not tired-tired scan film / slide, does not need to issue ISO dizziness and more.
Finally, as I always said. Digital is the future, sooner or later the film will be phase out. Perhaps the film can still survive, but only as a digital assistants.

Basic knowledge of Digital Cameras
Label: Kamera. DigitalWhat is Digital?
Before we discuss what the digital camera, perhaps we can try to understand first what is the Digital? For those who have not yet know, this world we are all analog. Humans can recognize digital spelled not too long. In ancient times all the machinery and equipment run on analog machines, even up to now is still a lot of machines that run the system is still analog. An example is the camera, especially your own. Lens you use mechanical technology. However the film camera that most certainly have a part of the digital technology. If the camera has the LCD panel, to be sure it is a digital technology. According to my "Digital is the future", would not want to we can not avoid all that is around us will be using digital technology.
What is a Digital Camera?
I think all people certainly never seen a camera. If it is not where you may visit this site. But it is possible that some of you who have never held a digital camera (not intend ridicule). The camera's digital still camera is similar to the (type of film), the largest difference between digital cameras do not use film. Forget it went to the store to buy the film every time you go photographs. Digital camera does not require a film at all. This all changed with the storage media that can be removed back, the withdrawal computer disk. Nah have a computer disk khan own capacity, as well as the camera memory. Sizenya from 8MB to 4GB (4000 MB), this data is valid at the time of Dec 2003. The format is diverse, for example: Compact Flash (Type 1 and 2), SD card, MMC card, Memory Stick (Special Sony camera), floppy disks, CDR. One thing is for sure from the media like this, you can save costs because the media can be used many times.
Let's go to the technical part of this digital camera. Questions .... how a digital camera to catch the incoming light from the lens? Light is not arrested by the memory (see above), working memory only save images that have been processed. The incoming light is captured by CCD sensor or CMOS sensor. CCD (Charged Coupled Device) and CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) is a chip that is located right in the back of your lens.
CCD sensor (Not suitable size of the original). Original size much smaller
For most digital cameras in the chip market is very small, smaller than the size of 35mm film. At this time only one that has a camera sensor that is of 35mm Canon 1Ds. So for a digital camera, this is the sensor is a film. CCD and CMOS technology, which is 2 commonly used in the camera. Generally, the camera on the market use a CCD sensor. There is still one type of chip, called the X3 sensor, but this is still not commonly used because it is still expensive and the quality of the resulting photo is still not too different from the 2 sensors that I utarakan before. Every time you buy a certain camera asked how many want to buy a megapixel, megapixel tahukan you here is the number of pixels on the CCD or CMOS sensor you. So if you have a 4 MegaPixel camera, CCD sensor means that you have about 4000000 pixels. One pixel is very small, and the pixels that capture only one type of color. If the sensor over the enlarged pixelnya seen until then about that as you will see the picture below.
Most of the sensors in the market using the format RGBG, pixels to capture more green. Pixel its own color does not, over a coating color pixels.
Because the digital cameras have sensors that is less than the film, the long lens fokal is not valid as the regular film camera. Ideally I should be the size of sensor is equivalent to the film, but it is not possible. For the sensor to measure the price of film camera you can very expensive price (Only have 1Ds Canon sensor is 35mm, the price $$$$). Moreover the size of a mini just like now, the picture quality is satisfactory lumayan.
Plus and Minus of a Digital Camera
As I first utarakan that "Digital is the future", then I will give some point of the camera plus a digital camera than a film:
- If it is calculated in the long run, cheaper digital cameras. For the film does not need to buy, and the portrait that can be removed and failed to live longer take the shot.
- The real-time portrait, we can see the results whether it is not.
- Because the format is to process the digital editing is easy, only need to connect to the computer and edit (Scanner is no longer required)
- Memory digital camera is very large so you need not be too quick to buy new memory
No technology is perfect, therefore I need to point minus from a digital camera:
- Tend to have a digital camera SHUTTER lag longer than the type of camera film.
- Price camera tend to be expensive compared to the type of camera film
- Due to the size of the sensor does not match the type of film camera, the wide angle to get a shot on the DSLR are required to buy a wider lens.
The first of this article, I hope this knowledge can be useful for the readers. All here know that I have taken from various sources, one of which I very DPReview.com it is complete. Please visit this site, to the digital camera can click "Glossary". To book on Digital Photography, I suggest Tom Ang's book entitled "Digital Photographer's Handbook". Make you want to learn about the basic photography I can recommend "National Geographic Photography Field Guide: Secrets to Making Great Pictures."

Tips & Tricks Photo Qualified Photographs with Digital Cameras
Label: Kamera. DigitalPhotographs using the camera's analog or digital photography in principle not different. The difference, with the camera is the replacement of analog film, while digital camera does not have the replacement of the film but with a digital sensor.
However, digital camera, the more consumers preferred because the end result can be seen directly, and repeated if the image is less satisfactory results. How to produce high quality images through the digital camera? See some of the following tips:
1. Set the camera mode with the image size at most.
The advantage of this mode is you can print them in the largest size color photos without the threat of broken. In addition, you can also cut the part that is not on the desired image. It is no use if you are buying a camera with a resolution of 5, 6, or 8 megapixel, but you still can install a standard image mode, and not the maximum.
2. Use the maximum level of quality.
Many digital camera images of the JPEG format. JPEG image of the bad if over-compressed. To have your picture look like the original, use the maximum level of quality.
3. Use the type JPEG images.
JPEG, although the lossy (less clear), could be the best choice. Section, when you take a picture with the JPEG format, the advantage of also because you can mengolahnya with Adobe Photoshop.
SLR camera usually give the option if you want to use the format JPEG, TIF or Raw. TIF usually used to reproduce the smell graphic arts, for example, in magazines and newspapers. Meanwhile, Raw, save as is without further image processing.
Compared with the Raw and TIF, JPEG format is easier to maintain with Photoshop. Both format (TIF, and Raw-red) will only work when you will be processed in Photoshop.
4. Camkan that Whitte Balance is important.
For most of the image, it is recommended that starting with the Auto white balance mode. Function so that you can read the camera's light coloring around the existing and automatically set itself to optimize the white balance.
Daylight mode suitable for the light of day, while if the cloudy days, it is recommended that you use a mode Cloudy. To evaluate the coloring and lighting, do not forget to take tested with one or two pictures.
5. Do not forget to set the "High ISO Number" or "Use Auto ISO."
Results will be more clear picture if you use a lower ISO, but the camera's sensitivity in capturing more light to be low. Meanwhile, if the ISO is too high, such as Dale Laboratories, will only cause noise in the picture.
6. Optimize the use of Histogram.
By using the histogram you can see how optimal sensitivity sensor in the camera captures images.
7. Avoid using the digital zoom.
Should not use the digital zoom because it will only make the performance of the chip-level resolution (pixels) on the camera to be extravagant. Try to use the zoom lens of course, that can save the use of the chip. Besides the shooting, using the digital zoom, as well as if not using the zoom lens.
8. Buy Memory card quality professionals.
Speed record of shooting with a high-quality memory technology can complement your camera. For example, the memory card with 40x speed, can record 3 of 10 consecutive stapler in 1 second. Meanwhile, with 4x the memory, you can only record the image 1 in 3 seconds. Benefits, with high-quality memory you need not be concerned of a shift in color photos.
9. Backup of the images in a CD or DVD.
Setting up an umbrella before the rain is better. Make sure all the creatives backup your photos in a CD or DVD, as if anticipating the damaged hard drive. (dwn / dwn)

Tips For Taking Photos Small Children
Label: Digital, KameraHere is my experience in taking a small child I never fit in the forum.
See the column on the topic "Sharing & Photo Gallery" I do see a lot of sdh foto2 son / daughter kesayangannya, I think there is no one to share my experience with the hobbies I patner KD children photographs.
The idea is as follows:
1. The most natural thing in the picture the children dri portraiture (portrait) is the corner of the image which we should stand parallel / level with the child. The reason is the effect of the lens. When you stand higher, will make a face, especially children dahinya larger and prominent than actual size. Moreover postures children seemed to be more short-dri operation. In the half-body images, then the child will not look like neck.
2. Try to meet for the camera viewfinder with a profile of children, for example, face or entire body.
3. Avoid the object as a child back dilatar electricity pole / light pole will make grow back page of the child.
4. If the background or the background (BG) is very knowledgeable, back your camera to a vertical position. This will reduce the effect of the wide background, photos and more focus to the child only.
5. Try wherever possible, take photos in the children made their own environment, for example, is surrounded by the piece, I in sleeping room is as saturated child all trinkets and toys that children preferred tune or page.
6. that can make the child feel comfortable / relax and not be tense or rigid.
Do not you sweet rule sit on the fringe sofa. Or stand degan robust attitude. This will only make children appear tense, especially if he did not feel comfortable or not happy when we impose our will.
7. Often children take photos with all do best when the child is not aware of the photo.
In this case, the expression of the face full of fun child will be recorded by nature (natural). In this case you can make yourself "invisible" (not visible), and the images should be done from long distance with the long lens / tele.
Kamera2 digital consumer / prosumer you are equipped with a long zoom lens to 10x or 12x allows the images this way. For DSLR camera, zoom lens many choices of medium size can be used to tele.
8. If you want a formal memfoto children, with clothes neatly in the day as Lebaran or Christmas, used cap, hat, or let it bring favorite toys, for boys. Meanwhile, a shawl or a flower or sekeranjang kesayangan dolls can be provided for girls. You can make a lot of interesting composition of the image you see from the various attitude of the child when the child feel happy, excited or relaxed.
Do not force the child must be the smile because it will make it behave tense. When the children feel relax, take some photos when the expression / mimic face, pose or style they are different.
There must be a few dri the many photos do you take will show the expression and pleasing composition stored as collections for the family.
9. There are two patterns action photos of children. First, take a photo at the time of action, such as the child is being run or run-chase the ball, you can use a high shutter speed (high speed SHUTTER) for winter (freeze frame) of the child as he was speechless olah (suspended).
How you can follow the two-way movement runner child with a camera, the term is photograph - panning. This is how children memfoto movement while estimate or to imagine where the next position at the time he ran. Point of focus the camera focused on a point I expect you have / imagine where the next child will be located.
Follow movement child ran up the camera is a bit forward position son. When approached titk was estimates you say, press SHUTTER button while the camera continues to follow the movement fled the child for several seconds.
When you sdh trained enough, the result is a picture I show the children but are sharply - in motion - some background do with vague line (streaks) indicative of the movement. The withdrawal action photos.
For taking action photos this should be done with the camera settings manually.
10. Like if you want another take photo a group child you're playing on the floor, on piles of sand, the beach, or in the garden. Postures you can be fully established, or are higher for can also cover the whole area played.
Must be in the recall, a child has a pro-pose macam2 / style and mimic facial expressions I always change at any time, and never have face same.
So, you should always ready (alert), to not lose the moment you rarely repeated again].
In this case, the advantage in the digital camera is you can make the photo various style for fear of running out of memory. As a photographer, you seeking the position, not the children who are looking for a position or placed in the position.
Among the many photos of a child, I experience for you, and stored for collection of memories. The rest do not groove, you can remove them from the memory card.
can, Avoid use flash in the photographs so that the children seem more natural. (Gosh, I hate flash)
example below is just as picture-made 200mm lens: In the face of the portrait, the child knows and is not between being caused photo do not know moment we will take photos, because without command. On the other photos the child is aware of the presence photos.
Portrait: main sand: Ciaaat .. 
Hopefully useful.

Cameras Hunting Tips
Label: Cameras, Digital
From the technology lens, we have three options for the digital camera technology is gradual, the pocket camera, the semi-SLR camera, and SLR camera.
SLR (single lens reflex), is a technology that moves the lens is inserted between the camera lens with the media object catcher. SLR camera technology allows identification objects such as shooting or what the original.
Only provided zoom lens, pocket camera does not have the ability to object identification shooting as the original. In addition, this type of camera in slow image capture, namely the aim to save the shot.
At the top of the camera in the pocket is a semi-SLR camera, the camera is equipped with digital SLR lens. There are two main differences with the digital camera is truly SLR, the lens and viewfinder. Semi-SLR camera has only a single lens in the camera body, so the lens can not change such as in the SLR camera.
Technology viewfinder is also different though equally to use the lens SLR look, as shown in the camera's LCD screen is a semi identification digital SLR. Meanwhile, the SLR camera, which appear on the LCD is the result identification optics.
Clearly, the camera is an SLR digital camera because the class has a diverse collection of SLR lenses for a variety of different purposes. The price to be expensive because most of the components came from price variations SLR lens that can be dismantled pairs as needed.
Would like to choose a digital camera genre which, of course needs should be adjusted. If just for the fun atmosphere and recreation, course selection is a pocket camera that cheap gala. If the demand for professionals, of course, the selection is a SLR camera.
Well if you want to accommodate both needs, the selection is a semi-SLR camera that is also often referred to as a prosumer camera, abbreviation of the word professional and consumer.
After determining the options genre digital camera, now is time to pay attention to the aspects of supporting a digital camera, the resolution, optical zoom, flash, image capture, and save a media.
Resolution
Is the pixel size (pixels). The higher pixel, the resolution of the resulting picture quality will be more. If you simply print size image and not to create an image of a poster, a digital camera with 3 megapixel resolution is adequate.
Optical zoom
Zoom is the ability to zoom in or out shooting objects. Make sure that the digital camera you buy will have optical zoom capability, means equipped with zoom lenses.
His development of the software technology allows a digital camera to zoom without involving the zoom lens.
Should ignore this concept of the digital zoom. Do not be dazzled with bid different image effects, such as panoramic, photo frames and so forth. All digital effects that can be done through the computer.
Flash
The presence of the flash legal obligation, as it will help when you need to zero in an object in a dark atmosphere.
But more than that, should you choose to flash feature which is very crucial, such as red eyereduction to reduce red-eye effects and night scene for shooting at night.
Image Capture
Make sure that the camera is responsive in the aim to save the shot. You may not find a pocket camera with image capture responsive.
Try to count the time when you click the button to SHUTTER shot saved by the camera. If it turns out lelet capabilities - for example, more than 5 seconds, you should choose.
Media
Digital camera always comes with a memory card instead of film images. Make sure you have a spare memory card, because you may not need to process with the computer and then bring them to a photo studio for print.
After determining genre and its attention to five aspects of the above, then it's up to you! Please choose the price and the brand fit in your heart. Happy hunting
