Photography Word Wednesday

This week’s words are:

Focal length – the distance from the focal plane of the camera to the lens, when the lens is focused to infinity.

Motivation Monday

Here is a photograph from this weekends football game. Action shots are great, especially when it’s an interception. Don’t forget to join in on the Motivation Monday fun and add you link below.

Welcome to the first post of New Friend Friday, where I’ll be posting photographs of people that I did not know until I photographed them. The first photograph is of three of the students that are members of the home school photography club that I assist with a few time each month.

Thank you Courtney, Kendall, and Christa for being the first of my “New Friend Friday” friends. Keep making photos and have fun.

It’s time for another photography term.

Angle of View – The area of a scene that is covered or seen by the lens. The focal length of the lens is what determines the angle of view. The shorter the focal length of the lens the wider the angle of view.

Motivation Monday

by Ken Worley

Two days ago I finished my 365 challenge, so I’m starting something new and everyone can join in the fun. I’m calling it Motivation Monday.

When we are out photographing there is that one photograph that causes us to go WOW, the one that motivates us to get out and shoot again.

The way everyone get to join in the fun is by adding a post, using the Mr Linky at the bottom, with one of your photos that motivated you.

Here is one of mine from this weekend.

Day 365: Finished

by Ken Worley

Today is the last day of my second 365 Challenge. I’m glad I did the photograph a day challenge but I’m also glad that it’s over. There were days that I really had to make the time to create a photograph for that day. It was worth it.

I didn’t really know what I was going to do for the last day, until I got home and realized that it was such a relief knowing that tomorrow I don’t have to post a photography if I don’t want. The photography for today is my interpretation of that relief, kind of like that old Nestea plunge. In the photo I’m surrounded by some of the tools needed over the past year to publish the challenge everyday. There are cameras and lighting equipment, computers, and magazines for inspiration. If you look at the top on the photograph you’ll will even see our dog Lacy who was the subject of Day 1.

Don’t worry I’ll still be posting things here on my blog, like my Photography Word Wednesday that I started a few weeks ago.

Photography Word Wednesday

This week’s word is:

Shutter – The physical barrier which stops light from contacting the light-sensitive material. But when triggered, opens for the precise amount of time allowing light to fall on the light-sensitive material.
