I only yesterday found out how to assign my AF to back button but found that where my ae-l button is and how I have to press it pushes my thumb nucle into my forehead on my Nikon, would I be losing out on anything if I assign it to the Fn button just under my lense which is in a perfect place for me when I'm hand held? 👍✌
Winter here and i have a cold so im working on portrait photography and working on light. Though when home i try to learn on kelbyone, its a good learning... also working on matting, lamenation, ect...
Excellent! For wildlife photography: 1) Capture the "catch light" in the animal's eyes 2) Shoot from a position at or slightly below the animal 3) Try to be close to the animal with the background farther away. For example, a perched bird with branches far away will have a buttery boca background compared to a perched bird with branches close behind the bird will have a cluttered background. 4) Patience. Let the animal come towards you so it is in a relaxed state when you take the photos. 5) Mammals have a keen sense of smell so try to have the wind in your face. 6) Birds typically fly and land into the wind so for birds, try to have the wind at your back. 7) Spot focus or eye detection for wildlife that is not moving, wider zonal focus for birds in flight photos.
Going along with the 'look at your photos with a critical eye', I'm finding that when I take a ton of photos and have myself cull 97% of them to get the number down to 10 or so for sharing, I get a lot more sensitive to composition and moment in the batch.

As a long-time photographer, I can tell you that every one of your points was spot on.

Thanks. Will try personal project for some time now. 😊
Another excellent video. I think your most important point was practice just get out and do it.

Is the reciprocal rule apply to a 70-200 lens also ? And how , thanks
1/60th when at 70mm, 1/200th when at 200mm. .. .
@@timlarge7420Thank you!
Please add Timestamps to the videos.. Thank you
I appreciate the feedback. I'll start adding the timestamps to these videos first thing in the morning.
Moving water: Tripod, remote shutter, ND filter and patience.
Polarising filter?
@@Photography-Explained I just use the ND because I am in Florida. I find it useful.
