Moving Ahead with Photography

Since my last blog about my starting of my passion, i.e. multimedia, photography right now, I started to shoot pictures with my new camera and I got some time hanging around with the camera to learn the techniques. Most of the time a book helped me a lot that made me understand the skilled photography techniques. The book that I bought last month was namely, 'A COMPLETE DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY MANUAL'. It cost me just Rs.780/- and its not a matter of joke that this book is the actual meaning of photography, it has everything you need to know about photography, from choosing the right camera of your choice up to finishing the photo to be hanged on your wall or as photo prints. It taught me too many things about photography, for example, it taught me about types of cameras, types of lenses, types of flashguns, types of photo filters, circular polarizer, tripod, etc. with addition to how to edit photos with Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Photoshop Elements. I also use Adobe Photoshop Light room. Its really fun working with these. Every day begins with a new idea of photography. Following each and every step of photography by the book mentioned above, my first shot was taken was based on 'MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY' and then gradually proceeding to the next level. Below is the picture shot by me:
