I just found out that my iPad takes better pictures than my old camera. Photo taking just got about 10x more convenient! Let the picture taking commence!

Merry Christmas!

Recently I have only been taking pictures casually. The volume of work teachers give us has made it hard to spend time working on this project. But now that I'm out of school I'll be free to do some serious picture taking.

Happy Holidays!

Today I found a website that gave tips for better photographs. There was a specific section on taking pictures of flowers and such, which particularly interests me.

Basically they gave 10 tips for better flower photos. Here they are:
1. Attack it from all angles!
2. Use a narrow aperture
3. Take black and white flower pictures
4. Use a tripod
5. Don't shoot in clear daylight
6. Urban flowers
7. Capture motion blur
8. Use a macro lens
9. Include flowers in still life pictures
10. Use flowers as the foreground for a landscape
