All of us had taken hundreds of photographs at the beach. But there is no end to creativity. Look at these photos. All are from www.pixabay.com.  These are called as rain stones. Look at the way in which these stones are arranged beautifully.The collection of different colours, types, sizes and so on. Notice the one that is almost transparent, placed at the center. The next photo illustrates " hands on sand". Such a simple idea but so much appealing. It requires intelligence also. Next photo was done I think obviously at the beginning of  the year 2015 , symbolically erasing 2014 . A beautiful rainbow at the beach! Arranging shells on sand in a good way! Stone heap arranged. Stones of different colours and gradually decreasing sizes from bottom  to top.   Finally, a beautiful sunset at the beach! Pictures credit: All the above pictures are from Pixabay.com.

I took the above photo in pine forest of kodaikanal. This is the normal direction of the camera.So , it is not appearing  special.   look at the photo below. It is same location but the camera is facing upwards and positioned to touch a tree.look at the appealing effect of this photo. By selecting such unique angle of the camera, we can get superb results.

Twin lens reflex I  was using this camera for many years.It was a delight to use. I liked the large format and accuracy of photographs . My relative was using this camera.At that time people  were giving respect to the photographer depending on the size of the camera.Bigger the camera size, more respect! Picture credit: Pixabay.com.

welcome to my news letter after a long gap. 1]  Tips for photographing water drop on leaves. select a plant which will not absorb water readily . Put some water and watch for the size of the droplet. This process will have to be done to get the best size of the droplet. look at the position of it and adjust the  camera position. adjust the zoom level suitably to give prominence to the drop. select the leaf in such a way as to give the natural lighting, a glittering effect on the drop. click several photos from different positions and by varying the settings. edit the photos if required. Multiple droplets also are appealing , as shown below. 2]   News about latest digital cameras.

Teacher’s  day and Lord Krishna’s birth day- what a coincidence! As we all know, Dr.S. Radhakrishna’s birthday  will be celebrated as Teacher’s day. This year, it has coincided with Lord krishna’s birth day. The real Radhakrishna’s birthday is coinciding with Dr.S radahakrisnas’s birthday! Actually, Lord Krishna is considered as the best teacher of all times, as he gave  real teaching required for life, in the form of Bhagavadgeetha! What a coincidence today.

The above photo was taken at a park near my house. It was in the evening. The light and colours are correct for plants and flowers but sky is over exposed. The beauty is the curved  walking path ! It makes the eye of the observer to move along the path and hence make him to look at the photo for a long time and enjoy.

I took this photo with a flash light at very close distance! that has resulted in a fine lining of light reflection around the flower. For getting such an effect, 1] ambient light should be very less- so i took this at 6-30 PM. 2] flash should be in forced mode not in auto mode. 3] set the camera to macro mode. 4] take it at close distance rather than zooming and taking from long distance. Please try.
