Springtime Brings Opportunity
Spring brings with it some of the
best picture -taking opportunities
of the year ' many of them right
around your own hone.
Mother is in the garden, weed-
ing and watering the bank of
flowers. Father is in the yard,
turning the soil for the lilac and
forsythia bushes. Light, delicate
blossoms are sprouting from both
soil and branches.
Almost every yard is worth
photographing at. this time of
year. Appealing photos don't have
to be unusual. The next time you
walk around your home, look for
picture possibilities. Take your
camera with you. so that your
flowers, hashes and trees can re-
main at their peak of beauty 12
months of the year •on filet.
You'll want to try two types of
flower pictures. The first is the
photo of one or more blossoms,
shot from as close, as your cam-
era will allow. The second is the
mass effect.
For trees and bushes, shoot front
a low viewpoint; this silhouettes
them against the sky. For groui,ri.
hugging flowers, a high viewpoint
captures the flowers against a
background of soil.
If you want to feature :our
home, look for some natural fore-
ground—for example. a tree or
branch. This will give depth. a
sense of completeness. Details of
the house will also toll a story. A.
.:lour latch, garden gate, front- putt
all are significant,
Naturally, to capture t h e e
springtime photos to the f'tii,
you'll want color film. And yo''"l
want to choose your film earefctlly,
The best of today's color fiin)
gives sharper pictures, better ele_
tail in shadows and highlights.
and clean, rich colors. An'l be-
cause of faster film speed, you One
take your outdoor pictures even on
shady, cloudy days.
With good color film and even
the simplest of cameras, you can
be assured of rewarding photos .
Remetnber that some of tite hest
photographic possibilities lie just
outside your living room window,
