above,How To Sell Your Digital Travel Photos
Avoid Red eye
In darkened rooms, red eye can be a problem. An
on-camera flash unit will illuminate the subjects
wide-open iris and bounce back to the camera with the
red color within the iris showing in your photo. You can
avoid this by holding or attaching a remote flash
approximately one foot above the lens.
In outdoor photography red eye is usually not a
problem.
By elevating the flash above the lens you also
remove the shadow that often falls to one or another
side of the subject's face when you use on-camera
flash and hold the camera in portrait mode.
You can soften the light by placing a plastic diffuser
over the flash unit or, in the tilt head type, taping a
bounce card to the back of the flash unit and tilting the
head up.
Practice the use of bounce flash and diffused flash at
different distances from a test subject, adjusting
aperture and making notes in a clip book.
Filters
If you have a camera that allows screw-on filters, you
make available additional tools.
UV Filter
An ultraviolet filter screwed on to the front of the lens
is a good tool for protecting your lens.
When film was commonly in use, these filters were
needed to absorb the sun's ultra violet light and
prevent a blue cast that UV rays would cause on film.
With digital cameras and with most glass lenses used
today, UV is no longer a problem; the optics on most
lenses guard against it.
The UV filter still has its place, however; it can be a
method of protecting your lens from scratches and
finger smudges.
When cleaning your lens you don't need to clean the
actual lens element, which would shorten its life, you
clean the less expensive and easily replaced UV filter.
A good UV filter will considerably extend the usable
life of your more expensive lenses.
There are varying opinions about the use of a UV
filter but many photographers use them solely for
protection of their lenses.
