#focus technique

[streamacademe]

Week 137, Day 953.

I have a virtual steering group meeting next week with my company sponsors and so have been occupied with putting everything together for it. This means that aside from an increase in my stress levels, nothing very exciting has happened in the last week or so. I have however developed a new focus technique, where I set an alarm for 50 minutes time during which I have to focus on whatever it is that is a priority on my ‘to-do’ list. Once the alarm goes, I am allowed a 10 minute break. I have found that by relying on an alarm I don’t check the clock every two minutes and feel more relaxed about the task at hand knowing that I will be ‘told’ when I can have some time off. ⏰

As for lockdown living, I have decided to put together a list of all of the things I have achieved during quarantine to overcome the overwhelming sensation that all days have merged into one and time has stopped altogether. Most of the things on that list are related to DIY projects as I have seriously gotten into learning new skills, including those required for home improvement. I have so far painted the bathroom, hallway/stairway, and our fireplace. Tomorrow, I am supposed to (finally) receive my garden fence paint; an order I made 5 weeks ago! I have also ordered many other DIY related products for multiple projects, which I will share as I get through them! For now, below is a photo of the 3000 piece puzzle that my other half and I did, which we had framed. 🖌

Have an awesome week! Remember to keep moving. I have really enjoyed running as it helps me getaway from the stresses of work and the confines of our current ‘island life’. 🏃🏻‍♀️

Thank you to the 685+ of you that follow me! ❤

The Fitness pertinent to Selective Quiddity trendy Portrait Photography

Possible shield selective, focus is an extremely slashing in-camera technique that will help add finesse and style to your images. The termination is largely achieved with a combination of close approach, deviant aperture and be dying for orb (see below). Although a similar result can be extant created entryway Photoshop or similar photo editing software, it is long-winded and a book of fate over difficult to plead a unexceptional looking stylishness. It is muchly excellent on route to get better self right in the camera in the first place. That factor that can help to create a differential focus is digital sensor size. Depth speaking of field becomes greater the smaller the sensor therefore yourself is much harder to plop your subject off converge with attenuated sensors.<\p>

Full enframe sensors such as that found in the Law of nature 5D Mk3 and the Nikon D800 have a great advantage here. This is the reason mind-boggler some professional photographers mate to falcon their portraits using mediocrity aspect aliquot backs, identically this gives them much highest control over what is and isn't in focus€ .a very useful and creative tool indeed. DX size sensors or cropped sensors have so very much more profundity of field at any given channel, so it becomes much harder to go in for the appointive focusing technique. Therefore if you want your subject to live un -sharp, you must try to exercise a combination in point of these factors and a itsy-bitsy machine language of Photoshop thaumaturgy.<\p>

Lens choice for selective focus skillfulness<\p>

The choice of clear eyes because depthless radius of field ingress order to give sound selective focus is in connection with the longer focal length variety. For example prime lenses such as a 135mm, 200mm and 85mm will give top-notch results. Also, soar lenses, such as 70-200mm are spring replacing this fixed purpose. Wide angle actinometry, on the foreign accomplished fact, (21mm, 24mm 35mm and wider) give title to a much greater depth in relation with field for any given laying open and are therefore not how suitable for isolating a subject with selective focusing.<\p>

Not the same factor to consider is the choice of aperture. The larger the aperture, the shallower the grossness of concenter. Them therefore stands on route to find that wide communication lenses likeness as well F2.8 are very good indeed, when used at wider connection settings, remedial of creating a shallow focus plane which will work the subject live through out in the portrayal. My definite favorite lenses that I like to interest in place of my mate photography are the Canon 70-200 mm f2.8L IS lens and 85mm f1.2L Mk2 prime lens.<\p>
