Christmas


Christmas

Here I have my first attempt at taking a Christmas shot of my children. It looks horrible in my opinion......and yours too probably! The main thing that is noticeable in this shot is the lighting. The lighting is so poor, even with the pop up flash. You can't even notice that the lights on the tree are lit. This would have came out better if I raised the ISO a bit, and had a slower shutter speed to catch more of the ambient light. I was still in the fully automatic phase of my photography. My thought was, if it doesn't come out good in automatic, it will not come out good in any other setting. Boy was I wrong!!!
