Plants and flowers (03/08/2008)
(...) Create a backdrop: You can use a piece of colored cloth as a background to separate the plant from distracting surroundings. This won’t give you the feel of a good wilderness image, but it is useful in making plant portraits. Manipulate plants to improve composition: You can use twist ties or short strips of cloth to gently tie back plant stems to improve your composition. (...)

Digital cameras offer photographers great control (02/29/2008)
(...) Many people think that photography documents reality; but in truth, it only captures incredibly brief moments. How many tasks do you perform in your everyday life that can be measured in 1/30 of a second? Yet 1/30 of a second is considered a slow shutter speed in photographic terms. One of the greatest modern photographers, Henri Cartier Bresson, is best known for expressing the need to capture the decisive moment—the split second when action is at its peak and emotion at its most intense.

(...) Instead, you should follow the athlete in the viewfinder as she travels so the camera moves in concert with the motion—a technique known as panning. Then, when the time comes to trip the shutter, you’ll be in sync with the action. You can also use panning, when light levels are too low to permit fast shutter speeds. (...)

Sports (02/29/2008)
(...) When you get these times, consider turning to the bench and making some head shots of the players. At the rink I usually shoot at, the player’s area receives about two f-stops less light than the ice, so plan accordingly. One other thing about ice hockey is that the overhead lights reflect off the ice and bounce back up on the players, creating nice, even lighting. (...)

Some day, 40 years later, you may look back at that image and say, “Who’s that, and why did I take her picture?” Or, all those years later, you may gaze fondly at the image and a flood of memories and emotions will come rushing back as you remember who the person is and why you took the photograph.
