There is an idea worth some thought and planning. ' • Brother Bill or Sister Sue in the Service probably knows all of them and would get a real kick out of a few snaps showing their youthful s activitie The possibilities for such pictures are really unlimited For eXampie, a picture:of the youngsters on their bikes, balanced for a "V for Vic- tory" formation, would be getting away from the ordinary' group plc• ture of boys and girls standing in a stiff; pose, And d rn't forget to iha crude. the little tots with their tri. cycles,, Who so valiantly try to keep up -with those old Enough to own "tWo wheelers," -. You can also plan a tug-of-war be - teen the girls and boys of the neighborhood. Very little action or movement is required to get a pic- ture of this type because both sides can assume pulling. positions and "hold it" so that even with a boa - type camera you can get a good, sharp picture, Tbase are only two suggesttolls for outdoor pictures but there are many. others and no doubt, with .a little thought, you can visualize better on05, You Will want to get several plc' tures to send to those in the Ser- vice and, of course, you'll need extra. prints for the children's parents so be careful and make every snap of the shutter result in a good negative, Here -are a few suggestions that may help you. First of all, be sure that the • lens • of your camera is clean; otherwise'your pictures may appear dull or smudgy, Be sure you focus correctly. if you have made a shot at SIX feet from your subject and you have to, back away to tell feat on the next one, be: sure to re- set your focusing scale for ten feet. Hold your earners steady. When you push the shutter lever or cable release, do it gently. Camera move• ment causes fuzzy pictures. Watch your exposure. A lens aper- ture of d/11 and a shptter speed of 1/50 of a second might give you proper exposure at One time but might not an hour later if the clouds have obscured; the/ sun. Make it a point to observe your lighting eon- ditions and Set your exposure time accordingly. An inexpensive expo - slue guido Will be of great help in solving exposure problems. Get the neiglhboriroad children to gather this weekend. Those in the Service will Welcome the pictures and they will be of interest to the citildre4 themselves in later years tis Cohn van Guilder THE BRUSSELS ;POST VVanesday, Doeeemb the er 8th, 12.4 meetingsesWnents were errrk10 11K ssa✓nRtJFleNF/ kAFy y l kra served, }! ,OLVoexelected9res 1resi r-, , vicepioa• s I lett c .,. -; °" `..:'v^•,. s Ms"n !
