Look At Your Label — cilieSNAPS1--1OJ G(JftD SLOW, SHARP AND STEAD' Everybody has heard of the three "R's," but the photographer who took his picture knew the three "S's" of successful photography—Slow, Sharp, and Steady—and applied them to his work. 1eE EADiN', 'Ricin', 'Rithmettc—the 1A, three "R's"—are familiar to all if us. But have you heard of the three "S's" of photography—flow, "sharp, and Steady? They're the basis of many a fine picture, even tough most of us never think of hem often enough, Consider "Slowness" for instance, srobody Bites to be thought Of as a - flow worker. Everybody likes to be ightt up on his toes when taking pictures , getting the job done fast and efficiently .. , and that's fine rider most circumstances, but when you're just getting started photographically, it often leads to Unnecessary mistakes. So before making any snapshot, take the tune to think things through and check up on yourself. Make sure your focus, exposure, and composition aro right Jkncl remem. bet that the BOOM "5" in sueceas. ful photography — Sharpness — de - ponds upon correct focus. So don't guess. If you aren't certain,either measure the distance froth your camera to your subject, pane it off, 0r use a range finder, unless your camera is fixed teens. That's the way most experieneod photographers work. Finaity, remember that the'Stead- iness" which helps you avoid blurred pictures mean' holding your camera absolutely still. if -you can't do that, place it on some firm support such as a tripod, a table, or a fence, and don't jar it when you are making cameraexposures. With the of oourse p actice releasingg the shut- ter with a smooth, even "squeeze" until you can make your exposures Without jarring the camera at all. That's the Slow, Sharif, and Steady way to ;photographic success. :10$ John van Guilder
