Week 5: Basics of Digital Photography


Notice the images to the left, the same shot with flash and no flash. Notice the difference? The formations on the left are flat, void of detail, texture and contrast. The image on the right, with no flash firing displays vivid rich and warm colors with lots of dimension, depth and contrast.

REVIEW
This week was a good week. I talked about the advantages and disadvantages of using a flash on your DSLR. We also covered the advantages of using an external flash in your photography. Our assignment this week is to post one photo on the Flickr Group web site:

1. Flash being fired outside to highlight a close object(Fill Light)or,
2. The flash not being fired inside to use the existing natural light available

As always thanks for the participation on the Flickr Group web site. I look forward to this week's assignments.

Below is this week's presentation:
