My Brazilian Garden

The idea of this project is to photograph without making use of computerized editing. A 14 mega pixel Kodak digital camera was used.

Time of Day

I made the photographs late in the afternoon to have stronger colors and brighter colors. Near the sunset the natural light is yellow and this helped in the effect I wanted in the photos.

Focus Distance

To photograph insects and flowers, I used the camera setting to shoot objects less than 70 centimeters apart.

Effects

I used flash to highlight the brighter object and make the background darker. This does not happen when the background is the sky, but the object in focus is bright.

Selection

Selecting the part of the landscape with an angle that only shows this part in the photo is very important. A little zoom can help.

This is my art with photographs. I enjoy using camera features with nature's features. I hope you enjoyed!
