PICTURES AT BLOSSOM TiME
Spring blossoms make an excellent setting for pictures. At blossom -time
set snaps of this sort, as well as close-ups of the blossoms themselves.
QPRING blossoms are an invite
1-1 tion, to any camera owner, for
their delicacy and freshness give.
them a natural appeal as pieture
subjects. However., to tale really!
'good blossom pictures, there me
several rules you must observe. ;
The first rule is: yet close. Don't
stand away back, and picture a,
whole tree or a whole orchard in,
every shot. Take care or two gen-
eral
emeral shots—then nte-re in for close -
'ups of the blooms. If,y*ettle is a fixed-
focus
xedfocus camera, or ene with limited
focusing range, use -a portrait at-
tachment on the lees—this will en-
able you to get even closer.
If you 3r,;ave access to a oameaa
of the double entension 'bellows
type, use ehhat for lfioasoni pictures.
With such. .a camera, sou can. shoot'
blossoms imi their act( -tai size-+fi11-
ing the iiini with -two or three'
blooms,

color sway you, unless you are us-
ing full-color film. For black -and-
-white shots, especially of pink blos-
soms, a fine-grain panchromatic
film is best.
If you shoot a group of blossoms
.oixtlined against a blue sky—and
this is a very good type of blossoni
picture—SIip a color filter on the
,camera lens, The filter will darken
the -sky, making the blossoms stand
out fresh and white. To obtain a
deep -toned sky, use a deep yellow
G filter. For a lighter .sky tone, a
,medium yellow K-2 filter is the ene
to choose.
:Blossoms make an excellent set-
ling
et.ting for pictures of people—info(
mal}portrait snapshots• with a fresh,
:epiingtinie quality. Make a collec-
tion sof such shots during blessem
time, showing members of the fame

CREATING PICTURE CHANCES
A "created" picture—the photographer spilled the milk, and the kitten dice
the rest. Develop natural situations tai get more interesting shots.
I'P'S fun to look for picture oppor-
tunities — but it's more fun to
create them, And many of the finest
picture chances are created deliber-
ately
eliberately by the photographer.
If you wait for things to arrange
themselves for a picture, you're dust
trusting to Iuck, and you may have
a long wait. But if you take a few
steps to create a situation, you'll
find it easier to get inn the picture
you want—when you want it
For example, look at the picture
aberre, Is. there any point in waiting
for such, a situation to occur natter
ally? Not a hit. It's much simpler to
spill the milk right where you want
et—place the kitten, Where you wish
—and shoot. A kitten knows what to
40 wheel he's face to face with milk.
There are many such occasions
where a little arrangement is a big
help. lIise•a bait to tempt a.pet to tine

baby an amusing toy --or place an
automatic music -box beside him—r
and he'll pose, completely unaware;
of the camera. Provide some action
ter an older child td carry rant a
tio11, to dress, a boolt to read, a model
boat to work on, The action provides'
a theme or story which inrliroves the
/rehire.

to thence. If possible, arrange with
your subject to have the desired ac-

Then you can focus in advance, and
be all ready to shoot. For example,.
