Scenic Trails

We know that the best times for photography during the day are from 30 minutes before sunrise till about 10:00 in the morning and from 7 till 30 minutes after sundown. You can take photos anytime during the day, but be careful with how the colors look.

On a recent photo shoot I noticed that the colors are not as vivid as they are when shot during early morning or late evening. The sun really mutes them. The colors are still there, but not as good looking as if they were taken during the "normal times".

For most people they won't notice a difference. But if you really examine the photo ( look real close ) you will see it, and if we are going to the trouble to take a quality photo, I know you will look close.

Is anybody interested in getting a photo safari together? I have a couple of places in mind. There is Gruene, and Wimberly. I know there are other places, it just depends on how much you want to drive. So, let me know.

I am sorry for the screw up on the post with 5 pics. I was trying to put the cat picture in the post and when I dropped it in , it didn't take . So I did it again --same result. I ended up trying this 5 times with the same result. Then when I go to do another post to use the pic that I thought didn't go , I see that all 5 pics made the post. This is one reason I don't do this everyday.

On to other things. We DO NOT have the picture sizes of 14x18 and 18x24. The 14x18 has been replaced by 12x36. All the other sizes that I mentioned in the cat post are good.

Last time we talked about Composition and the different things that help.

Today, lets talk about White Balance. White Balance is the adjustment of the camera compensate for the kind of light in the area of the picture. It eliminates all unwanted color produced by some light sources.

White Balance tells the camera what combination of red, green, and blue should be perceived as pure white, under the current lighting conditions you are experiencing.
