First Photography!

 Hello! I took a picture a while ago. It's not edited but it still is good and crystal clear! Hope you like it!


 Also, I have MyFreeCopyright so you can't steal it! If somebody clicks full size image or saves it or copies it, I will know! Soon, I will add signatures to my photos but this is my first photo! Thank you! Enjoy!

    Hello, Cherry. I happened to stumble across your blog while researching "photography blogs". I was very interested in the title as cherry blossoms are my favorite tree to photograph. As my title says, I am a professional wildlife photographer (I shall not reveal my name, however...) and I would be very happy to give you some photographic tips.

    You don't need to be "the best" if you're doing it just for fun...that's where I come in *wink wink*. I teach my own little private photography class and am always striving to help photographers-in-training.

    Tip #1: The difference between snapshots and photographs.

    Say you were walking down the street with your camera in hand, when you spotted a bird. It was a beautiful bird, all golden feathers and shiny black eyes. And it was just standing there, still. Of course, you snap multiple shots. But are they really planned out? Probably not. They're just...the bird. And while the bird alone is fine, they're probably not likely to get into a photography magazine.

    Say the same situation happened again. You saw the perfectly still, beautiful bird, and instead of just snapping a few random shots, you knelt down and chose the angle the bird looked best at, whether it was the slight tilt of his head, the glow of the sun on his feathers, or the fact that he was perched in a funny position. You would think about the shot, not just take it.

    Say you saw an alien. You probably wouldn't have time to take a proper photograph, and anyway, it's an ALIEN, so a snapshot would be fine. But with professional pictures, you need to actually think about it and study your model well.

    I hope this helps! Comment if you'd like another tip :)

    Cherry - Thank you :) Unfortunately, because I have so many blogs/websites already where I sell my work, it would be almost impossible to have another one. And yes, after you've posted some photographs corrsponding with Tip #1, I will give you Tip #2 ;)

    Flamestorm - I would be happy to! I advise you to follow the first tip I gave to Cherry before asking for any more...hmm...perhaps a photography blog would be a good idea :( I'll need to consider it. Of course, my real name wouldn't be given out...

    I shall comment next after Cherry's upcoming post!
