a bad day. Sort of like this...
Well, did you know that flash can be your best friend instead of your worst enemy? It's true! Flash, when used in certain ways, can generally brighten up a dark scene or illuminate objects hidden by shadow, especially when outside!
Some general tips about flash and red-eyeLight gets dimmers the farther it travels. The same is true about flash. So subjects close to the flash when it goes off will be lit up while subjects farther away will be darker or hidden in shadow.
A flash-lit scene may not be evenly illuminated. To solve this problem, use a smaller aperture for subjects close to the flash and a larger aperture for subjects farther away.
Since flash is so quick, it usually catches an object in motion so you don't have to worry about anything blurring, thou
Is this ungrateful? -UPDATE-As you know I have been doing some poem requests for people. I don't mind writing poems for other people, but what really frustrates me is that I notify a person that their poem is done and they don't have the decency to even thank me or even comment/fave it!Is this ungrateful? -UPDATE-2 months ago in Personal More Like This
There's this one person on here that I said to three days ago that her poem has been done. I had to give her a second reminder around ten minutes ago and I told her that she hasn't even looked at it. I even gave her the link to the poem, so she has no excuse of not viewing it.
I know that most people have a life out of DA (I have as well) but what bothers me is that she was online when I gave her the second reminder and she hasn't bothered replying. And not only that, but I have checked her activity and she has been talking to other people for the past three days as well as commenting on her page to answer other comments.
I'm sorry, but she is being ungrateful as far as I'm concerned. Am I fair to assume that I am being ignored? T

My stock is COMPLETELY FREE now. All of it. Use it for whatever you want. Make commercial work with it, make stock with it.

I think free stock is the best stock. I don't use any other stock

Photography Troubleshooting: FiltersThis week we bring you another issue of Photography Troubleshooting to hopefully give you some tips and explanations behind how to make use of some photography accessories. If you have a question, query or any thoughts you wish to see discussed just drop us a comment or note!Photography Troubleshooting: Filters11 months ago in Photography More Like This
"The use of filters, how to pick them and examples of situations where they would be helpful...."
~ =moria330
Hi =moria330, filters are a good way of diversifying your photographic opportunities without spending a great deal of money (though, granted, many of the better quality filters can get to be relatively expensive).
In film photography, filters were used a lot more extensively then they are today thanks to the nature of the medium.
For example colour filters were used for white balance purposes on colour films that were balanced for different light types, so, you could shoot artificial light balanced film under daylight if you had a filter that corrected for it.

Birthday Scuzzle! BREAKING NEWS! Something terrible has happened!Birthday Scuzzle!2 years ago in Contests More Like This
Some naughty mudkips invaded dA and stole a very important photograph. The stunning photo was a gift for all of you to celebrate deviantART's 11th birthday. It is devastating to confirm it is now missing.
Witnesses say that the mudkips were spotted sneaking out of an open window, but we cannot confirm until a full investigation has been reported and all evidence collected.
In the meantime, the photograph remains missing. $Moonbeam13 is currently searching her spellbook to find a way to bring the image back.
Stay tuned for further updates. A full report will be issued on the 3rd August.
What is a Scuzzle?
A Scuzzle is a combination of a Scavenger Hunt and a Jigsaw Puzzle. There will be lots of missing pieces of this Scuzzle ready for you to find. Although there are some subtle clues to help you along your way, you will need to search high and low for them! Come back on the 3rd August for the hunt to begin!
