Honors _______________________________ _______________________________________ Prof. Frank Newton, Honors Committee Dr. Christopher Nelson, Honors Committee _______________________________ _______________________________________ Dr. Bob Bass, Honors Committee Dr. Shea Stuart, Honors Committee I. Overview of Wildlife Photography The purpose of this thesis is to research the positive and negative effects photography has on animals. This includes how photographers have helped to raise awareness about endangered species, as well as how people have hurt animals by getting them too used to cameras and encroaching on their space to take photos. Photographers themselves have been a tremendous help towards the fight to protect animals. Many of them have made it their life's mission to capture photos of elusive animals who are on the verge of extinction. These people know how to properly interact with an animal; they leave them alone and stay as hidden as possible while photographing them so as to not cause the animals any distress. However, tourists, amateur photographers, and a small number of professional photographers can be extremely harmful to animals. When photographing animals, their habitats can become disturbed, they can become very frightened and put in harm's way, and can even hurt or kill photographers who make them feel threatened.

  • Wildlife Photography Over Nature Photography
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention (IJHSSI) ISSN (Online): 2319 – 7722, ISSN (Print): 2319 – 7714 www.ijhssi.org ||Volume 9 Issue 9 Ser.

Randula Podduwage1, R.M.Patrick Ratnayake2 1, 2 – Drama & Theatre and Image Arts Unit, Department of Fine Arts, University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka. ABSTRACT Wildlife photography is one of the most popular genres in photography. Although the history of wildlife photography goes back more than 100 years, until recently there was no internationally accepted definition for it. Since 2015, a number of leading photography organizations around the world have filled this gap, establishing the wildlife photography genre as a more consistent subject area, subject to a common international definition. The main purpose of this article is to identify the exact shape of the wildlife photography genre by considering the specific newly introduced definition with referring to existing sources. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Date of Submission: 10-09-2020 Date of Acceptance: 25-09-2020 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- I.

  • Photographic Equipment Guidelines the Farm Lodge Lake Clark National Park, Alaska
    Photographic Equipment Guidelines The Farm Lodge Lake Clark National Park, Alaska by Jim Barr Professional Nature, Adventure Travel, and Outdoor Sports Photographer President, American Society of Media Photographers, Alaska Chapter Photography Guide, The Farm Lodge, Lake Clark National Park Introduction. Here are some general and specific equipment suggestions for photo tour participants. These start and build from “ground zero”, so just blend this information with the equipment that you already have. Equipment is important, but...the old cliché “cameras don’t take pictures, people do” really is true. So don’t put too much emphasis on the equipment. We’ll help you get the most out of what you have. On the other hand, a bear’s face would need to be within two or three feet of the lens for a frame- filling National Geographic quality close-up with a small point-and-shoot or cell phone camera. Not healthy for the photographer (or the bear), and not too likely to happen. The right tools do help. Keep size, weight, and portability in mind. You’ll be traveling to Port Alsworth on a small plane, and deeper into the bush each day on an even smaller one. Space is limited. We’ll also be doing some walking. Bears will require a mile or so of light hiking each way. On landscape days we may hike further and sometimes over rougher terrain, but you can leave heavy wildlife gear at the lodge or in the airplane. We do have options that limit the walking necessary, but there will always be some.

  • The Quick Focus Way to Sharp Pictures
    The Quick Focus Way to Sharp Pictures Highly Accurate Quick Focus System -pinpoint sharpness every time- Clear QF Indicators -error-proof, fuss-free- Bright Viewfinder -with clear laser matte focusing screen- QF Functions With Any FD Lens -wide-angle, zoom, macro, telephoto- Aperture-priority AE + Manual Mode -the choice is yours- Simple To Use -light and compact, too- It should have been the perfect picture. The exposure was exact and you framed it beautifully. But when the film came back from the developer's you found that your prize shot was blurred and indistinct. It happens even to pros, but now Canon has come up with a way to ensure you never suffer the disappointment of poorly focused pictures again. It's called the Ouick Focus (OF) system and it's the star attraction of the new AL-1. Easy-to-see arrows point which way to turn the lens' focusing ring and a green spot lights when your subject is in sharpest focus. No more eye strain or guesswork trying to judge the optimum focus. And because the Quick Focus is a TTL (through-the-Iens) system using three CCO line sensors, it works with any of Canon's over 50 FO interchangeable lenses. Other features help make the AL-1 one of the easiest to use SLRs ever. Its bright viewfinder incorporates an overall laser-matte focusing screen with convenient focus frame, while microcomputer "brains" take care of ranging detection, exposure and control decisions. And it's an aperture-priority AE camera, which means that you select the aperture and the camera sets the correct shutter speed.

Not only does the archival quality of the resulting image matter but a simple understanding of lighting can achieve an enormous impact on the given textures, form and inherent detail of objects, giving valuable information which is often lost. Depending on the complexity of the artefacts’ shape, lighting can be experimented with by finding the best position and angle of the lights used for the job. It is often a laborious job to find the time to read up on the correct lighting positions for any given artefact. Often, it is far better to spend some time experimenting and observing, to find the best solution in any given situation. This will help you to judge artefacts by eye, leading to an implicit understanding of the qualities of light and should lead to sound practical experience, which should then become second nature. Simple lighting or copy stands can be cheaply purchased or rigs can be built out of simple materials utilizing desk lamps if your budget is limited. See final section on how to improvise with lighting.

  • Special Techniques to Make Your Image Different
    Special techniques to make your image different 1. Timelapse in one image During a photo tour in Yunnan province, China, we go shoot at a busy local market. I, however, like to experiment something new, presenting the hustle and bustle of the market photographically in a unique way: A time-lapse compressed into one image. To achieve the result, 2 approaches coming to my mind: Option 1. Using the in-camera Multiple exposure mode: Nikon cameras has multiple exposure functions for long time. After years of being ignored, it finally comes to Canon cameras starting 5D III, which I happen to use. This one is shot using "Average" mode in multiple exposure, I set total of 9 exposures, taking one shot every couple seconds, the exposure is automatically reduced, proportional to the number of shots taken, to avoid over-exposing common areas or overlapping bright areas. Where overlapping areas do occur, the final brightness level will be the same as the would have been in a single, properly- exposed shot. And, any non-overlapping areas will be darkened. The final combined image is automatically generated by the camera. The pro is that you can experiment a lot with this technique, simple and fast. The con however, is that you have no control on the resulting image at all. The camera has full control here. Option 2. Taking a lot shots and manipulate them in post processing: This is a hard way, but you have absolute control of the final image. It, however, is time-consuming and requires lots of fiddling with Photoshop.

  • Multiple Exposure Notes
    MULTIPLE EXPOSURE NOTES • Read your manual to determine what features your camera offers • Check the setting for default time out and adjust to your needs • Some camera will save each image in a multiple exposure series while others do not. • Check to see if Live View is available when shooting multiple exposures • Turn on your grid in the view finder and/or live view to help placement. • Shooting Menu o On – Series will continue multiple exposure mode until turned off o On – Single will turn off after one multiple exposure completed o Off - *Make sure you turn off when finished! o Number of shots varies from camera to camera with some restricted to 2 exposures and others up to 10 (or more) • Multiple Exposure Modes o Auto Gain: Turning off would require all adjustments to be done manually. When on, the camera will adjust the exposure of each frame automatically to try and avoid overexposure. o Add (Additive): The exposures are overlaid without any modification / adjustment o Average: This provides an automatic exposure control whereby each image is automatically underexposed to allow for a correctly exposed final image. o Lighten: The pixels in the images are compared and only brightest pixels are used to overlay. o Darken: The pixels in the images are compared and only the darkest are used to overlay. • Previsualize what you want as the end result and find compatible images. Use your grid or a part of your subject to help line up individual images. • Multiple Exposure Hints and Tips o Simple double exposure using Auto Gain is usually available in all camera with Multiple Exposure option.
