I quickly learned the one about having the sun behind me. One time I needed a group shot on a very sunny day. I lined up the people the way I wanted them while they complained about the sun. I told them to close their eyes and when I shouted OPEN, they opened their eyes and I snapped the photo. It turned out well. But the Smithsonian. Now that's exciting. Keep us posted, please.<br /><br />Love,<br />JanieJanie Junebughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10573607241326291404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-37045350934016281772017-12-22T12:36:12.797-06:002017-12-22T12:36:12.797-06:00Congrats on your photo being chosen for the Exhibi...Congrats on your photo being chosen for the Exhibit! (Fingers crossed, it's the hobby horse.)<br /><br />Years ago I'd a shiny new Canon and enrolled in a photography class. <br />But after being criticized time and again, I finally put it away.

Thanks for the tips. I take a lot of food photos. Nutrisystem has used some of them in their social ads. But Ive never been asked to take some professionally . That would be awesome. <br />LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03109633602729593188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-56600514905408241132017-12-21T21:55:10.642-06:002017-12-21T21:55:10.642-06:00I am a happy snapper rather than a photographer, b...I am a happy snapper rather than a photographer, but appreciate your tips.

To take a good picture takes patience as well as knowledge of all those 'NUMBERS' etc. on the camera. LOL I never did get the hang of it, but DID LEARN to appreciate those that did know that STUFF! ;-)jack69https://www.blogger.com/profile/12884137603402812926noreply@blogger.com
