Colors

Here is my new post............ COLORS.

Colors play a very important role in photography. Photos with good and vivid colors always look attractive. So on this weekend, I got a chance to take such shots..... with varying, a lot of attractive colors.



These are some Panatis (Clay lamps) colored by my elder sister Kanchan.
Now if I want to tell something about her, then you will never find her taking rest or sitting idle. She always keeps learning or doing something new. So this time, she has decided to make designer Panatis.




As far as my understanding, designing such Panatis is not at all an easy job. It starts from choosing and buying raw panatis with different shapes from market. Then give a lot of thoughts to color combinations. And then doing actual painting.



So taking care of all her responsibilities at home as a good mother and wife, such a job is not at all easy for  a married woman like her.
And she is not going to stop here. She is even thinking of displaying her work in a small exhibition.



As an appreciation to her hard work, I felt to display  her work here in my post.



And of course, for any photographer, who always keeps hunting for good shots, this was a real treat.


So these are some simple and nice photos, with a lot of COLORS in them, shot with the help of a very small lighting arrangement.


I hope you people like these photos, and more than that the designer Panatis made by Kanchan tai.



Great Job Tai !!!! Keep it up !!!!!!

As always, I am waiting for your comments :)
Keep visiting...
Will be back soon....

Starting Photography

              Photography is my hobby. I don't know exactly from when, but good photographs always used to fascinate me. And that lead me to start learning photography using my Canon SX100 Camera. Also learning something always needs an inspiration. And my inspiration is one of my friend Bimal who is a photograph enthusiast.
              The one rule I am going to stick to while publishing the photos is
"I will be publishing only original photos from my camera and not the edited ones(except adding my name to photos :) )".

              So here are some of the first good shots during my learning activity.

My First Lighting Arrangement :

              Here are some snaps with my first lighting arrangement done with the help of one small battery torch and my bro Vipul, who is my first model of my photo shoot :)





Playing with a focus:
Below is a photograph in which I am trying to play with Manual focus.


Aperture:

Below are 2 photographs in which I am trying to play with Aperture. For both of these photographs, aperture value is small.
In this photo, the front objects are blurred and the object at back is in focus.


In this photo, the middle object is in focus while front and back objects are blurred.



Magic of lights again:

Below are 2 photographs taken using whatever lights are available at home.
If some one would have been there in these photographs, it would have been good portraits. I will try to convince some one next time for my photos :).





Will be back soon with other photos.
Thanks for viewing..... :)
