 PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Taking photos of ships, boats from a moving ferry boat. 

Use TV, 1/2000 sec. I placed camera on railing of back of ferry, for stability. Shot more than 5 photos hand-held. I focus on "Maritim Malaysia" text.

PHOTOGRAPHY OF AIRCRAFT USING iPhone 14.

 iPhone 14, 5.7mm (69mm), f/1.5, 1/2100sec, ISO 50. 6 Jan 2024, 8am, Taipei.

Good composition as the person near the back of the plane gives a sense of scale - how big the plane is compared to a person.

However, the plane's window was not clean. I used Photoshop to remove the stains of the window.

5055. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Merchant ships being photographed from my moving ferry to Desaru Coast Ferry Terminal.

 PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Merchant ships being photographed from my moving ferry from Tanah Merry  to Desaru Coast Ferry Terminal on 12 Jan 2024. Sky was cloudy or had some sunshine at various times. The images were taken during the 1.5-hour journey.

1. Use TV Mode and shutterspeed of 1/1600 sec, as the ferry is moving and shaking. If you use 1/500 sec, your images may not be sharp.

2. Canon R5, 24-105mm lens. Use shutter priority mode.

Dial your shutter speed and focal length but set the ISO to AUTO

3. Moving and rolling ferry motions blur the images, if you use aperture priority mode.

4. Take multiple photos.


5. Rest your camera on a support or railing of the ferry to stabilise your camera.


6. Face the camera to the back of the boat to prevent sea water splashes onto the lens.

SINGAPORE- 12 JAN 2024: A merchant ship is a watercraft that transports cargo or people, e.g. container ships, oil or gas tankers, bulk carriers. Cargoes include raw materials and manufactured goods.

5052. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Moving people indoors. Use TV Mode and Auto ISO

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Moving people indoors. Use TV Mode and Auto ISO for fast photographing. No time to waste. Disadvantage of AUTO ISO is that high ISO such as 12800 makes the image grainy ( not good quality).

5051: PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: "Luminous red" flowers.

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS:

"Luminous red" flowers.  Don't photograph in bright sunshine but in overcast or shade as the red colour cannot be accurately produced in the image.  Can reduce exposure or do Manual.

The following image was taken handheld, using AV Mode in the evening. Bishan MRT Station public garden.

Jatropha integerrima, commonly known as peregrina or spicy jatropha is cultivated as an ornamental flower in public gardens like those near the Bishan MRT Station in Singapore.

Very difficult to photograph as its red colour is luminous and reflective. Take multiple shots under shade.
