Photography More Than a Club –II

We are into the third week of the normal club business. I have quoted "I am not afraid of death, but I am in no hurry to die. I have so much I want to do first." By Great Stephen Hawking.  

As I have introduced them to the genre of photography. I told them the background of it and helped them define as widely as possible.

Landscape photography

To make it better and easy to learn, I have put four different images and let them think for a few seconds individually or in pairs or in which way they feel most comfortable. 

As I went deep into the content, I told them it is one of the most popular types of photography, as it portrays a scenery and even shows the impact of environmental change. One can see such images everywhere and everyday. However, I told them there is also a good future scope for landscape photography and running a smart printing shop, and becoming the next Bill Gates. 

Portrait photography

The second type on the slide was the portrait photography. Similarly, to make it better and easy, I have included few quality images and asked them to reflect upon, if they have seen such images around the school campus, or in their home or other places like town and Monasteries etc...,

I told them capturing peoples' moods and expressions is an intriguing subject for any photographer. It can be close-up images, body portraits etc...,

While taking a portrait, the photographer should ensure that the subject's face is sharp and focused, especially his or her eyes.

Wildlife photography

Indian Pond Heron

Well, the third on my slide was the wildlife photography. I went steadfast with the content since the title itself is simple, clear and easy. This genre of photography basically documents various forms of wildlife in their natural habitat (birds, animals, etc…,)

It is a very challenging type of photography, as it might be difficult to capture animals in their natural habitat.

Equally, I warned them, this genre requires extremely good and sharp technical skills and it needs to be planned accordingly. Otherwise, it can be a big waste of time and energy. Because, I don't want them to be eaten-up by bears and other wild animals. 

In wildlife photography, one has to be absolutely comfortable with the camera settings. 

Thank you and have a good night dream!
