Hi There!
Welcome to my blog. Here are my tips. Enjoy!
Raising the quality of the images that you are creating is not as hard as one might think. There are a few key principles that can be applied easily to take a photo from drab to fab in a quick second.
Photography is the use of light to capture a moment in time. The word “photography” literally means “drawing with light”. The word was supposedly first coined by the British scientist Sir John Herschel in 1839 from the Greek words phos, (genitive: phōtós) meaning “light”, and graphê meaning “drawing or writing”.
The light that we choose to use to capture each moment is what creates that wow factor.
Of course when there is no window light your camera will not be able to take a good quality image without a light source. Remember that it is not the quantity of light that you have but the quality. If you need to use a light source try to limit it to one source if you can or at least make sure the color of the light sources are the same.
Least recommended light sources: Led lights tend to flicker and fluorescent lights will yield inconsistent results.
