This week, it was learning about and practicing the "rule of thirds". I know what it is, I've known what it is... and this week? I found out that I'm pretty terrible at it. It took constant concentration to put the focal points of my shots into the appropriate places. I don't always shoot central, but I neglect to put the most interesting things in those magic spaces.
But alas, practice makes... well, it made me a smidge better.
So for your viewing, here are the two shots that only made me want to tear my hair out a little bit.
Taken with a Canon Rebel XTi
Focal Length: 50mm
Shutter Speed: 1/250
Aperture: f/1.8
ISO: 400
Taken with a Canon Rebel XSi
Focal Length: 50mm
Shutter Speed: 1/1600
Aperture: f/1.8
ISO: 200
Pain... and practice... it's good for me :)

That picture of Bean makes me want to know what she's looking at.
ReplyDeleteLove them both - and I have the same curiosity as Christy. :o)
ReplyDeleteNICE! Good color and focus on both pics. It is hard to "see" the ROT when looking through the lens, much easier to do it in post processing :-)
