Nita - Assignment 7

This weeks lesson was on filters and zooming and panning. http://morguefile.com/docs/Jodie_Coston:_Lesson_5
A lot to practice so just going to do filters. I don't have any filters for my basic camera so I tried the technique of using homemade things to simulate. A couple of different subjects....

Fozzy Bear with no filter.....

Soft focus Fozzy - stocking over lens....

No filter...taking photo in the rain on macro mode.

Cling wrap with baby oil around edges....soft focus.

Soft focus with stocking.


Definitely will be looking at a camera that supports filters when I eventually upgrade. A polarizer will probably be my first purchase.

me too - forgotten how much fun filters can be. I also remember playing with coloured cellophane as well during a photography class...

the stocking worked really well on the last flower - i like it much better than the unfiltered photo
