But a whole fetishism has grown up around the technique of photography. Technique should be so conceived and adapted as to induce a way of seeing things, preferably in essentials, excluding the effects of gratuitous virtuosity and other ineptitudes. Technique is important in that we have to master it, but it is the result that counts.

Sa technique de pêche repose sur l'affût, perché sur une branche au-dessus de l'eau. Il repère ses proies en agitant la tête de droite à gauche, puis soit pique directement, la tête la première, depuis son perchoir, soit effectue un bref vol stationnaire avant de plonger. Il revient souvent se poser sur son perchoir dont il se servira pour assommer sa proie avant de la lancer en l'air pour la gober tête la première.

Le succès de ses pêches est très sensible aux conditions climatiques, la pluie troublant la surface, ou la turbidité de l'eau rendant le repérage des proies plus difficile.

His fishing technique is based on the lookout, perched on a branch above the water. He spots his prey by waving his head from right to left, then either spades directly, head first, from his perch, or performs a brief hovering before diving. He often comes back on his perch which he will use to knock out his prey before throwing it in the air to swallow head first.

The success of its fisheries is very sensitive to the climatic conditions, the rain disturbing the surface, or the turbidity of the water making the identification of the preys more difficult.

The kingfisher regurgitates balls of rejection, part of which is the layer on which the eggs will be deposited at the bottom of the burrow.

Thank you for your time to view.

1) Go to a dog park

2) Select a macro subject

3) Get low to the ground, camera to your face

4) Get broadsided by a running 70-pound Great Dane pup as you press the shutter

The Church was built in 1799 on the former Caminho dos Pinheiros, today Rua da Consolação, with the help of alms from devotees to Our Lady of Consolation and with the endorsement of the diocesan bishop Mateus de Abreu Pereira were able to begin its construction, with the technique of taipa, quite common at the time. The oldest record of its construction is a document transcribed by Jacinto Ribeiro, in which it attributes the idealization of the temple to the faithful Luiz da Silva and his brothers. Located in a boggy and marshy region there is another document proving the Church's ancient existence: on November 23, 1803, an office was registered that showed the need for drinking water for the residents of the neighborhood "Nossa Senhora da Consolação". In view of the custom of baptizing the district with religious names, mainly related to sanctuaries, the Church, besides already existing, corresponded to an important piece for the functioning of the region. And, in the year 1810, a plant in the city of São Paulo contained the chapel.

This is a Venetian Pitcher made on the Island of Murano. It is a popular Murano technique called Millefiori (a thousand flowers) which was invented by Murano Glass masters centuries ago. It is crafted entirely by hand and is created from hundreds of unique colorful millefiori pieces fused together under high temperature in a special furnace. We were fortunate to take a tour to this glass factory and watch the masters at work. This little vase is 5" tall and 4" at it's widest part. This shot is taken looking into the pitcher.

A technique i have been experimenting with of late is day time long exposures which creates this lovely effect on moving water. It is a skill which is probably old hat to many of you seasoned photographers but for me it is undiscovered country.

This is the River Dart West near Wistmans Wood and the day was a typical Dartmoor day, moody light, low cloud and heavy rain.

I was on my way home from work and decided to go via the Moors instead of the usual A38 route and take the opportunity for a long walk. Yes, I got soaked again...I need to find another hobby that keeps me dry.

I get to observe a number of birds while they are foraging and either I've been asleep or have never seen a Little Blue Heron employ the old toe tapping technique of the Snowy Egret! This guy was doing just that and the minute the poor hapless fish made a move to escape the toe it ended up in the beak!!! Photo was taken on Horsepen Bayou!!

I love to photograph bridges especially from below which enhances the graphic lines of the bridge. A foggy morning added atmosphere to this photo of Eads Bridge over the Mississippi River at St. Louis.

Young Great white egret. Still a little work needed on his technique I think...

Not the greatest, it's heavily cropped! These two were at it for about 20 minutes! Eye gouging, slashing and disembowelment are a few of their speciality techniques... not to be messed with!

Fisherman at work using the iconic one-legged rowing technique unique to Inle lake. Some temples and a fire in the mountains just visible in the hazy landscape surrounding the lake.

 

The one-legged rowing technique keeps hands free for work with the nets and it allows a high vantage point to see gaps in the sometime dense vegetation under the surface.

 

My captain approached slow and kept a respectful distance, before we asked if it was ok to photograph. Well, my captain asked, i pointed to the camera with a wai and smile and whatever did the trick the fisherman smiled and granted some shots and continued to fish.

 

Some fishermen were supplementing their dwindling income from fishing by posing for tourists. But unlike them he has an engine in the boat and is wearing normal work clothes fishing in the middle of the lake, not near the resorts or main traffic routes.

KIDS ARE A BLESSING.

I got to learn little kids photography, I always feel it is the most challenging technique in photography world.

Refining my comet shooting technique after the dramas of last time. I used a Nikon D810A with a Sigma Art 135mm lens at f/2, ISO200, 27 x 30 second shots during and beyond astro twilight. The camera was on a ZWO AM5, I used the ZWO ASIAIR Mini to polar align, then get my framing where I was happy with it, and ran the autofocus routine with a ZWO EAF connected to the lens. Once that was done I ran unguided in continuous exposure mode with a wired shutter release that locks on, while I shot landscape astro comet shots with the other camera. For processing I used APP, I didn't do any comet alignment. I removed much of the astro twilight colour from the sky and with more subs the satellites are almost gone. The artifact on the bottom right is from the ground getting in the frame! Final processing in Photoshop.

Inverted bracket keeps on giving.

I continue to have fun temporarily with pieces from the PaB without my stock pieces. Of them little can be done but when there's only a plastic Cup... The desire to build immediately increased. Can the pressure is gone and the duty to do something unimaginable without giving the abyss pieces. Oh well - soon I finish moving and will be content better :-)

After some nights spent to learn and practice new imaging techniques, I propose a version of my first attempt to Andromeda Galaxy, less harsh, more realistic and detailed and (I hope) nicer to see.

Technique offer us new possiblities for experimenting. I believe curiosity is present in all human beings. An internal force moves skaters to experiment things that the rest of us, we can not dream of .In my case I enjoied exploring what could result from the use of different edition programs together, "eh voilà" the outcome!

We have a special challenge at We’re Here! today: “It's a Saturday ... so today, let's spend a few minutes (or hours) showing off one of your favorite special photographic techniques. And, in your photo's description, explain what you did to get the intended (?!) result.”

 

Our images are then to be foisted upon our unsuspecting host What’s Your Technique?

 

I love creating images made out of several blended photographs. The elements come from my archives, recent or old, and are usually from several separate locations and different times. It’s great fun to enter these in contests when they fit the theme – and the contest themes themselves often serve as the inspiration for the image created. I don’t often “win” the contests, but that is hardly the point. Just as with the “We’re Here” themes, it is the challenge and creative work that causes me to spend my precious hours doing this. I have been wanting to create a new texture for a while now. These take me more time than seems reasonable – so today’s the day!

 

I combined a snap of my daughter’s kitchen wall in afternoon sunlight and a sandstone wall at a Napa winery, ran the result through Manga 5 Art Studio for some spray painting, and tortured that in “Paint Shop Pro” with blurring, layering, contrast adjustments, and a software-generated “straw texture”, until I couldn’t possibly remember how to do it again. Then I blended several different layers of it in different opacities and saturations with my subject – taken at the Idaho Springs Heritage Museum. The originals of my new texture and the owl shot are in the comment box below. I altered the dates to the past so they will “fall out” of my current photostream.

 

And, voilà! I have to fess up to falling into the “a few hours” category of Hereio today! I don’t have a contest in mind, but Spotlight Your Best has a “Bird Life” theme this month, so I will put it there.

 

Elastic Band Trick

 

Other People have done this before, some may have better techniques than this but this is the one I use. Feel free anyone to use this and I'm always open to questions and suggestions etc. Thanks for reading and enjoy!

  

Elastic Band Trick

 

The detailed picture step guide to get positioning of the arms on Lego Figures using one small elastic band.

 

I used small medical scissors because they were pointed and curved to get into the arm hole and the loop of the band to pull it out the other arm hole. You can use pretty much anything with those qualities. (Curved and pointed)

A facade technique for corners. The important part is this, which may be hard to source. The offset is a half-plate on each side of the dark bley block. I would love to see a solution that is solid and only uses in-production parts.

This kestrel was perched on the corner of the gutter around our rental when we arrived. Not particularly interested in me fortunately so I was able to get a few shots in before it flew off.

 

Native to Australia and New Guinea, one of the smallest falcons. Like kestrels elsewhere it does not rely on speed to catch its prey. Instead, it simply perches in an exposed position, but it also has a distinctive technique of hovering over crops and grasslands.

This is part of Tilden Park in the Berkeley Hills. Beautiful spot for walks. This was taken several months ago, but I'm revisiting tree and forest shots now that I've developed techniques to process them that I'm excited about! :)
