Photo Course - Summary.

Here are some tips and tricks from the photo course. They're pretty scattered, but what the heck.

• If your photo lab can print on 10x14cm paper (instead of the usual 10x15), you're better off with that one.
• If you have to use the 10x15cm paper, think of the options. It's either "fit" (a white border will be visible), or "fill" (they'll chop off whatever doesn't fit in the rectangle). "Fit" is probably better.
• When choosing your lab, make sure they use either Fuji or Kodak paper, with the golden logo on the back. Those are the good ones.
• It's advisable to ask the lab not to fix the colors and the brightness.
• When shooting, use center-weighted metering as default. In tricky situations, use partial/spot.
• In order to do perform "panning" (tracking a moving object at slow shutter speed), try using 1/20 sec, and adjust from there.
• Set your white balance manually. You'll probably do a better job than your camera's "automatic" setting. This is particularly true, when there are no white objects in the viewfinder.

C'est tout. Nothing else I didn't know before.

P.S: What makes a photo special? 1) if you saw something that many people passed by without noticing, 2) if you saw it from an unusual angle.
