All Day I Dream About Photography

Hello,

I hope you can help me I am wondering about the relation between ISO and file size… I have noticed that when I set my camera to a higher ISO I can fit less pictures on it can you explain why ?

Good question Micheal, I will do my best to explain it and I am sure that others will also include their thoughts and input here so you should get a pretty complete answer.

Since you have noticed that higher ISO will generally give you larger files, I think that you might have also observed that a picture file size will vary even at a fixed ISO.

Stairs come in all sizes and shapes and can be found everywhere, they always make great photography subjects.
Their patterns offer unlimited photography potentials and they can be shot from virtually any angle, from the old lost forest stair to the modern urban one they are enough to fit any taste.

Here is a collection of wonderful stairs pictures that, I am sure, will inspire you next time you take your camera on a walk.

cheryl Says: what exactly does the ring flash do… show a picture with it would be helpful

In a recent comment I got the following input and I have realized that some things that I take for granted are not that obvious for others. So I will try to address this question in this post !

As its name indicates, a ring-flash is a flash light that has the form of a ring that has 2 main purposes !

I am a big fan of minimalist compositions ! I like the simplicity it just relaxes my eyes but what are the “must have” ingredients of minimalism ?

THE MAIN SUBJECT

In a minimalist composition the main subject, or focal point, of the picture usually takes just a little portion of the frame answering the rule of third with a lot of open or empty space around .
This will give the eye room to relax , wander freely around the frame and then “rest” on the focal point. Make sure to remove all unneeded objects and clutters from your shot.

I love those grainy, gritty, dirty, fuzzy, noisy photos — you know the kind. Technically they may have their flaws, but artistically they’re inspirational. To me, grain or noise can add a lot of impact to a photo and change the mood quite rapidly.
