How to shoot the Moon with a Point and Shoot Camera

May 6, 2012

Vouliagmeni Moon Photo with Point and Shoot Camera Believe it or not, it is possible to shoot the Moon with an average point and shoot camera. In fact, for as long as you dispose of a reasonable optical zoom (300–400 mm equivalent) and the possibility to switch to manual settings, you should be able to catch some details of the surface of the moon. Of course there will be a lack of detail and sharpness, but at least you won’t end up with just a white spot on a black background. As today the Moon is at it’s closest to the earth for this year, I did a test run last night and brought back the following shot: Vouliagmeni Moon May 4, 2012 This is about as good as it could get The above was shot with the following F-stop:                   f/6.3 Exposure time:    1/250 ISO-speed             ISO-400 Focal-length:        49 mm 35-mm focal length:  389 Exposure Program: Aperture Priority The idea was to figure out different settings to catch at least some of the texture of the surface of the moon.

Photography: How to take Sunset Photos

August 16, 2011

Original Article at Photography: How to take Sunset Photos.The impact of the number of focus/metering points Zoom and Vertical angle influence Color Range To illustrate yesterday’s training, here are 3 pictures I just shot out of the window with a point and shoot camera: This first example shows that the sun and the warm colors around represent a small amount of the total image size. To get a dark foreground I used centered metering which causes the foreground to be overexposed since the metering is dominantly done on the light areas around the center of the image. Using Zoom to focus on the warm color range around the sun and by lifting the camera we reduce the importance of the fore ground in terms of importance. The foreground is nicely over exposed while we get plenty of the warm gradients. Forget about the foreground, we just zoom in and try to capture the interesting edges of the cloud. Compared to what the eye sees in nature (first picture) we are here entirely in the heart of the warm color range with an over-saturation of orange/reds. The contrasts get harder and we may miss out on some gradients, however such pictures can be spectacular.

Original Article at Super Yacht Octopus.Paul G.Allen parking his Octopus in Vouliagmeni This morning, Paul G.Allan’s Super Yacht, the Octopus was parked in the nice bay of Vouliagmeni. The Co-Founder of Microsoft obviously knows where the world is best! The 126.18 meter long Yacht looks quite impressive in the bay. Considering that the boat was the largest private Yacht when delivered in 2003 it still looks like the real thing ranking number 12. As you can see, there is only one of the two helicopters on board as I take the picture. The Yacht is equipped with it’s own submarine, a cinema, recording studio and about everything an average dude needs to live quietly and nicely off the hassle of these day’s financial markets.
