4098. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Inside the subway train.

 PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Inside the subway train.

Lighting keeps changing as the train moves between station letting in various types of light and darkness.

I use AV and lean against the railing for support and stablisation of my camera. I set to f/11 and ISO 400. Focus on the eye of the man (2nd from R). Handheld.

Don't set is ISO 100 as it gives blurry image in this situation.

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Inside the subway train.

 

 27 Jul 2023, 4.30 pm  Subway train Singapore. Focus eye of man (centre, black shirt)

Canon R5, 1/80 sec, f/4.5, ISO 2000, 24mm, TV, Handheld

PHOTO 2. USE SHUTTER PRIORITY (TV) is better as it provides a sharper background than using AV
as the aperture is now f/4.5 which lets in more light as compared to f/11 in the lst photo. ISO 2000 is necessary but it gives sharper image. 

 

 It is not always good to use low ISO like ISO 400 when you need a faster shutter speed, e.g. 1/80 sec as compared to slower shutter speed of 0.4 sec as in PHOTO 1 (another separate image in my instagram).

4907. Using the P Mode

 

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: The P Mode is for beginners. You just focus on image and snap the photo in ordinary lighting conditions.

I don't use the P Mode anymore. The AV, and TV modes ARE often used by professional photographers in a hurry while the M mode is the best of all modes to capture better exposed images.

4906. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Backlit blue pea flowers.

PHOTOGRAPHY TIP: 

PHOTO 1. A backlit Blue Pea (Clitoria ternatea) flower. Backlit means illuminated from behind. The evening sunlight from behind makes this photo attractive. A very rare occurrence to get backlit flowers grown in a back of a house in Lentor Estate as there must be the sun rays at the right angle and the right timing to backlight the Blue Pea flower.


The light purple Blue pea flower is rare. Most are deep purple. 27 Jul 2023, 6.18pm, Singapore
