Things you need for night photography

8/25/2022

0 Comments

 
Taking photographs in low light conditions is fun but at the same time challenging. That shouldn’t stop you from becoming the nocturnal photography king and queen you were meant to be though.
Nighttime photography is all about using the right tools. So let’s take a look at some of the things you will need to have a good nighttime photography run.

1. Tripod

Taking photographs in the low light condition is challenging, well because there is a lot less light illuminating all the objects in the environment. One way you can overcome this is by using night photography mode on your smartphone.
This optimizes the camera settings for night conditions like increasing camera shutter time. This allows your camera lens to capture more light over a longer period of time. The result is a more definite picture.

​But the drawback of doing this is that any little movement of the smartphone can make the picture all blurry. This is why you need a tripod, so you can hold the smartphone still while taking pictures. Even the shaking of the hands is enough to ruin your experience. So remember to pack a small tripod when heading out for your next nighttime photography session.

2. Remote shutter release
 

Remote shutter releases are pretty helpful little things. They allow you to take pictures from your smartphone, even when you are not physically close to the smartphone.

​You can combine a remote shutter release with a tripod and take amazing pictures with your smartphone. You can get them for pretty cheap, which use Bluetooth to connect to your smartphone.

3. Lens Hood
 

Lens hood is very important if you are shooting pictures during the night. This is because in nighttime photography, most of the time you have to deal with harsh lights coming from different directions. This can cause unnecessary lens flare and ruin your pictures.

A lens hood can prevent any stray lights from entering your camera module. Yes, there is a lens hood for smartphone camera modules. Search online and see if there are any available for your smartphone model.

Brazil is not only the largest country in Latin America, but it is also one of the most beautiful places for a photography tour. Brazil is home to a pretty huge portion of the Amazon rainforest. The country is known for its unparalleled natural beauty, dense rainforests, beautiful beaches, and most of all its vibrant cities.
Just like the Brazilian landscape, the towns in brazil are full of life and colors. So let us take look at some of the best places in brazil you can go for urban photography.

5. Salvador

Salvador captures the true essence of Brazilian culture. For many Brazilians themselves, Salvador is the favorite place to celebrate the carnival season. Salvador is known for its vibrant streets and rich Portuguese colonial architecture.

​If you are into live street culture then Salvador is the place to go.

4. Paraty

The town Paraty lies between the two major tourist destinations of Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. The city sits in a cozy place between the mountains with an impressive coastline. Paraty boasts rich Portuguese colonial architecture with cobbled streets and small street ornaments.

​If you want to get lost in the natural and urban beauty of Brazil, Paraty is a must-stop in your brazil expedition.

3. Bonito
​
Compared to the other cities on this list, Bonito is by far the tiniest. But what it lacks in size, Bonito makes up in unfiltered natural beauty. The small town is surrounded by caves and tropical lakes and rivers.

​Almost all the hotels and hostels in the town are near snorkeling points. So if it was your dream to snorkel in a Brazilian river near a petite town, Bonito is the place to be.

2. Florianopolis
​
Another beach town, Florianopolis has been known to mesmerize new travelers with its unparalleled beauty. But the town isn’t just known for its natural splendor. It also hosts a number of great art galleries, vivid nightlife, and streets filled with bright colors.

​If you want to visit a town that is as much alive at night as it is during the day, then Florianopolis should be at the top of your visiting list.

1. Rio de Janeiro
​
Rio needs no introduction. It isn't just the capital of Brazil in name but also in spirit. If you want the iconic Brazilian experience and you don’t have a lot of time to visit around, then Rio should be enough to give you a speed tour.

Best place in a city for candid shots

8/1/2022

Taking that candid picture is never easy. You never know what pose will work, what angle will work, and most importantly what location will work. Today’s blog post will be helping you alleviate some of that frustration by suggesting a few places in the city for candid shots.
These are tried and tested locations that always work well. So, let’s get into it!

​1. Café
Cafés should be your go-to place for candid shots. Cafés are often really well designed and more importantly really well-lit these days. The lighting conditions are almost always ideal in a cafés. And cafés just add that little bit of culture to your candid shots.

Explore your city and try to find small family-run cafés with good interior décor for that perfect candid shot. Smaller boutique cafés have a personality that you can’t find in corporate-run chain cafés.

​2. Public Parks
If you are in the mood to add some nature to your shots, then your best bet is the local public park. Depending upon your city, your local public park can have a lot of flora and fauna to make an excellent backdrop for your candid shots.

The best part about a public park is that having a little shoot there is also refreshing and doesn’t feel like a chore.

​3. Public Library
If you are feeling a little nerdy then head straight for the public library. Again depending upon your city, your public library could either be a 200-year-old antique building or a modern minimalistic style building. Both styles of architecture have their own appeal.

Grab a book and start capturing those candid shots. But be careful to not make too much noise or disturb other people. Not everyone is in a public library to get some candid shots. A lot of people are there to study.
