Chase Your Photography Dreams
Self portraits can be great way to experiment because there’s no more patient subject than yourself. It’s also a great way to document the fact that you were actually there yourself, if you’ve become the designated photographer in your circle of friends.
Chase Your Photography Dreams
With all these photo tips, I’m really hoping that you’ll feel inspired to pick up your camera and Stay Out There to realize some of your own photographic dreams. Today I thought I would share something with you about my own photographic dreams, in the hopes that my own journey might resonate with some of you…
Day 10
If you want to take a macro photo with a DSLR, it usually requires a special lens that allows you to focus closer. Mobile phones natively have a much closer MFD (minimum focus distance), so you can often use them to capture a closer view that can dramatically change the look of a shot.
