Sunset







The sunset is a symbol of peace, another day was ended and new beggining will come. It is also an expression of hope and very relaxing view.


In photography we also took a picture to express our self and symbolized our personality. One of the very interesting landscape photography is the sunset. Taking photos like sunset required skill in setting the SLR camera. Using the right combination of exposure such as Aperture,ISO and shutter speed will result a good image. Some of the photographers use special gadget such as filter that will be useful specially to avoid distortion of UV rays from the sun.
I took this photo at Sharjah,UAE while the humidity of the place is present. I used my Canon EOS 1000D SLR camera with the lens 55-200 mm with out filter and no photo shop touch up.
ISO 100, Aperture 5.6, shutter speed 1/120, auto focus set up.

Sharjah Central Souk


The view of Sharjah Central Souk or Gold Souk from Buhairah Corniche. One thing I like from this photos was the simplicity. Simplicity is the key to the most good pictures. Always remember that simple subject can be attracted to the eye of viewer.

In photography simplicity is important which make the subject shows more interesting. Night photography for me is a simple expression of simplicity. However night photography is not an easy subject for beginners. The proper combination of light, the set up, aperture, shutterspeed will be helpful.

Exploring your SLR cameras will develop your skill. This picture was taken using my Canon EOS 1000D SLR camera. Always remember that photography is an art and required practice to develop skills. Any talent and skill that not been use and not develop will be useless.

Lines and Lighting



This shot was taken at Buhairah Corniche at Sharjah,UAE while exploring my SLR camera. Exploring and praticing photography develop your photographic composition skill.
Lighting and lines are some element and principle to consider to have a impressive shot.
Using your SLR camera, take a shot adjusting your shutterspeed and aperture to satisfy yourself with your subject. If possible play also with ISO for the exposure effect of your define subject.
Good or correct composition is impossible to define precisely. There are no hard and fast rules to follow that ensure good composition in every photograph. Lines and light will be helpful for your photograph to define and to emphasized your subject that capture the interest of people. Remeber that photography is the art of light, and light will be destructive if not use as a helpful thing for your photographs.
Start exploring and always practice your photographic skill.
