5 Secrets to Create a Perfect Silhouette Portrait Outdoors

1) SHOOT LOW AND HEAD TO TOE Place the subject’s entire body, from head to toe, against the sky. In order to do this, you will need to be lower than the subject. You can do this by laying on your back, or stomach, while taking the shot. If you are unable to get low enough, you may need to have your subjects get higher, such as on the very top of a rock, small hill or sand dune. This will hopefully allow you, in most circumstances, to get an angle that places the subject’s entire outline against the sky. You can see a variety of landscapes...

Canon EOS Rebel T6s/T6i First Impressions updated with shooting experience

Look at the test details, for example, in the right lower corner, the color tube, for example the cap of the tube, the details are all present and with finer resolution then, for example, the Nikon D7200 (raw, 100 ISO. But increase the iso and the sony a6000 is even performing better. (Not to mention the Fujis, they are a little bit behind, but have a high iso sensitivity and less noise) ). Or take the small test charts in the corner, the sony a6000 is showing the smallest and finest details, in contrast to most of the other APS-Cs, including...

DxOMark Mobile Report on HTC One M9

DxOMark Mobile has published their report on the HTC One M9, HTC’s latest top-end smartphone. The new model is a touch smaller and thinner than its predecessor, the One M8, but under the hood HTC has finally dropped the 4MP “ultrapixel” 1/3″ BSI sensor of the predecessors that produced only mediocre image quality results in our testing. Instead, the One M9 comes with a larger, higher resolution 20MP 1/2.3″ BSI CMOS sensor that is combined with a F2.2 lens. There is no optical image...

I think it’s quite a nice little camera!, A bit faster at the long end then some other superzooms, weather sealing , attractive pricing. And as shown in the imaging resource superzoom review comparison it has quite pleasing look , and performs better than most others (maybe not the nikons with jpg…). It lacks a little in reach compared to some of the latest offerings and was actually tested a little shorter than the advertised 1200mm, something to be aware off!They do seem to process the jpg’s quite heavily , giving that...

Achieving Black Backgrounds in Macro Photos
