+dapettit Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Composition is great. Need a little work on the exposure. Do you have a tripod? Might want to download Gimp or another free photoshopish program. This will really help for post production. Just a few clicks in photoshop: Dave- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdavis735 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 i have gimp.i need to learn how to crop a pic and make it the right size.rather than just cutting out the subject and then having a tiny picture of it.i have a junk tripod.how do i work on exposure?

+dapettit Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 The photos seems to be underexposed. A longer exposure would lighten the photo up. Using the tripod with the camera's timer may allow for a longer exposure. What model camera do you have? Dave- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdavis735 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 its a canon a590is.i think i know what i need to change for exposure.it is a +/- button.it has a scale from like -2 to 2 or something.when i go up with the numbers it gets brighter.i think the setting is called exposure compensation???

mdavis735 Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 use the rectangle thing to select the part you want.then click image(i think)and click crop to selection.if its not under image check the other tabs toward the left at the top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
