PICTURES AT THE BEACH
155
t's easy to make good pictures of children at the beach. An exposure of
1/200 second at f/8 was used here.
KrOW that summer's here it's time
to begin thinking again of pic-
ture taking at the beach. And from
a pictureeaking standpoint you'll go
a long way before you'll find better
snapshot material,
For instance, there are seascapes,
marine views, water sports, pictures
of children, family snaps, and Pic-
torial scenes just waiting tor your
camera. There's plenty of good
strong light for picture taking. And
consequently It's not only easy, but
it's really exciting to see ilia how
many subjects you mu Ilnd for your
lens.
From the technical standpoint,
however, here are a few picture -
taking points to remember.
First, with box cameras lee usu.-
ally best to ette the smallest lens
aperture In bright sun. With folding
cameras an aperture such as f/16 ie
satisfactory for picture taking when
the sky is clear and the eon
shining. That's because the light is
extremely strong on bright sunny
days, and larger lams openings will
probably give overexposure.
Second, with folding cameras al.
ways select the "right" shutter
speed. An exposure of 1/50 of a
second at f/16, for example, is tine
for ordinary seaside snaps, but for
action pictures choose at least 1/100
or 1/200 of a second. Those faster
speeds require larger lens openings,
such as f/11 and 2/8 respectively,
but they're needed if you want to
get clear, sharp, action pictures is
which all movement ia halted.
Finally, if you have one, don't fail
to use a lens shade on your camera.
There's a lot of reflected light on
any beach, and some of it is sure to
strike the lens if it isn't shaded in
some manner.
So front now on watch thole
points, hem your eyes open, and
look for story -telling viewpoints—
as in our illustration today. Even
with box cameras you can make
good story-tening snapshots, and by
doing that you'll get more successful
pictures, and better pictures, than
you've ever made at the beach be.
