A photographer's technique

The camera of a fellow photographer caught my eye, as I showed yesterday, so naturally the technique of the photographer was my exclusive interest in observing how she took photos.

She has her left hand on the lens barrel, which is fine if she focusing or adjusting the zoom on her lens.  If she is actually taking a photo, however, she should hold the camera by bracing it with her left hand underneath the camera.  Holding the camera by the lens barrel is less steady.

What was she photographing.  Maybe I will show a few more photos of this scene in the coming days.

This we we are showing photos of some scenes of the people, markets, and scenery of Tanzania on our  Viva la Voyage travel photo site.

The CAMERA caught your eye? Yah, sure, Dave! Nice critique of her technique or should I say "form?"

I noticed you got more comments yesterday than usual. I wonder why?

You are right. We did shoot similar subjects. But...your "subject(s)" were much more, ahem, interesting than mine! I'll look forward to seeing more of them. Hmmm...

Well, it's a Canon but you can't tell which model. Cheaper EF Series lens (not that they are bad). And you are right about the technique problem. Perhaps a seasoned expert could offer some instruction.

It is most important for us to study photographic technique . . .
