Today I bought a low angle finder.
its useful when want to take an object near ground. I was taking with funny pose that likes talk with ant until today. Also, it has a interesting function that's magnifier. I can choice x1 or x2.
I'd like to taking anything on my neighborhood at weekend. its my pleasure.

And just only one problem has be left in my mind is... what am I doing for hiding from my wife.
8800yen is extravagance for me. I'll be angered from her if she's knew it.its terrible....

what is good photo?

I think, there are two kind of photo. good photo and not good photo.
But I didn't know, why I feel good. Just good photo is good, I thought.

Today I'd noticed that good photo has story. its interesting and important idea for me.
In normally case, two or more objects in a picture. and when I see a photo, I can feel connection between objects. and that connection changes story in my brain.

Example, a photo has two objects, a dog and a rock. The case of the rock was taken accidentally, that objects has no connection. the dog is a dog, and the rock is just a rock.

But how do I think about case of the dog is gazing that rock?
I can get notice that the connection between that objects. and that connection lead to a story about their.

I decide to say "That photo has dipth." when photo has story.
I want to take many photo have each of dipth through self practices.

which people goes mad me and other?

At resently, I'm feeling people has been degenerated.
In Mixi, other user's comment to my wrote is decreasing, and case of text in Kotonoha I post has got bad reply is increasing.

I tought I go crazy and had any bad fact while today. but it may wrong.
because when I remember about same season of last year, I noticed I had similar problem as this year.

So I found a conclusion that people has been degenerated by just season.
If I can do it, want to settle for people on near me.

But it may impossible... I feel sad because so.

Focus goes outside!

I have a problem that's about focus when I take a photo by macro.
When I arrange a subject on left or right side, focus goes out of I want to set because lens leaves a little bit from subject when I move camera to left or right after auto focus was worked.
I found this problem, yesterday. Macro mode demands delicate control to me.

I should like to adjust by moving to front or back litte bit. But its so difficult method.
I must learn the way of this problem's solution.

I'm waiting bonus has paid to me.

Now I'm in bonus season. Rested count down is only a week until target day. I want to buy many things! :)

- Comic books I couldn't buy when I had no money.
- New wallet substitute for my broken that.
- New HDD should been intoed back up data.

Especially, HDD is important. because my HDD has only 30GB capacity rest. And I'm taking photo 1GB while a week! HDD will overflow at a half year ago!

Then I shold like to go shopping next weekend. its my pleasure.

I was in rest a long time. I didn't feel to need to write English blog in recently.

I found and get a new book at dust throwing place, yesterday. its training book for TOEIC.
its looks like a interesting book however I don't want to get that exam.

My pleasure is just one that communicate with other Flickr user quickly and smoothly. So I don't need high level English ability, and I don't take TOEIC test while my intention is changed.

But I can take only TOEIC training. Because I can do it with no money. :-)

How to take as high contrast

I felt, need to know how to heighten contrast of picture. to make more artistic.
A man one of my contacts takes very nice photo that includes both of structure and sky are metered right. I want to take as him.

So I got some answers as follow for that:

1. Always lighting from my back
because backlighting reduces contrast.

2. Surely put lens hood
lighting from my next is reduces too.

3. Choosing right hue mode at every taking
Taking with same hue mode always I did, is wrong.

4. Choosing right white balance at every taking
I surprised, setting I need is changed considerably between 15 minutes.

5. Chance comes after 3 o'clock PM.
Noon time is good. but too strong light is sometime reduces contrast if I want to take both of structure and sky.

6. Set positively for under exposure
Set between EV-0.3 and -0.7 than anybody said right. Photo has been taken with over lighting looks cute. its good. but contrast is reduced. its problem of what I want to expressing thru the art.

7. Set positively F8-11 of aperture setting
I didn't know that contrast is heighten when use F8 or more over. its natural truth, because center of lens shows most good performances. however over F11 is not good, because photo is taken as be covered red filter by diffraction effect.

At last weekend, I forgot to try 7. point. So I should like to do it at tomorrow public holiday or next weekend.

Also, I must not forget most most important fact is, clean up every time.
Sorry my cam... X-o
