More Photos Snapped

ErJie and I went jogging yesterday. So, I decided to bring along the dSLR to practise how to snap good photos. It wasn't an easy task at all. I had try to maintain the focus on the objects I want to snap and make sure it won't go out of focus. Talking about focusing, I'm still using the autofocus. I need someone to teach me about all these things: aperture, flash, frequency, focus and so many more. Btw, these are some of the photos I took yesterday.

A weird person jogging... Haha!

I took this after ErJie's friend helped me to set the aperture :)

Love this photo!

Cool eh?

Me!

Something really embarassing happened while I was having fun snapping photos. ErJie saw a monkey eating a flower nearby. So, I quickly took out the dSLR and went near it and started snapping some photos. It took a few glances at me at first. Then, suddenly, the flash pop-ed out and shocked the monkey. It stared at me and showed me its teeth which really freaked me out. I was so freaked out that I actually shrieked so loud! Gosh... I was really traumatised.

Weird monkey!

Lesson to learn: Check the camera settings first and do not use flash when taking photos of animals!

Last but not least...

My favourite photo of the day!

Use Al Servo for auto focus with running objects.
and i like ur fountain pics too. You can try to use Tv 1/15s to see the blurring effects.
