They make beautiful pictures and are witness ato your photographic skill. Summer and autumn months are -p_specially good for sunbeam pic- tures. Often when the weather is threatening rain or has just cleared from a shower you will see these bands of light streaming down from the sky through openings in the /clouds. You see them too in. coun- try roads shaded by tall trees that spread a canopy of leaves over the roadway. The beams come •down through the openings in the canopy and when. the background of the scene is dark in tone they will be ,conspicuously outlined. Again in the city streets where there are elevat- 'ad railroad structures, you often see shafts of light coming down through The trestles. Sometimes, too, they appear in ravines where a waterfall gives off mist. In each case it means that the air is filled with vapor or dust particles, "the gay motes tat people the sun - hams," as a poet called them, •doubtless without thinking that it Oe these motes that are chiefly re- sponsible for making the sunbeams Of course, for a good picture, sunbeams need a frame or set- ting, clouds, trees, some of the land- scape, objects in the city streets. For this it is usually necessary to expose longer than you would if the sunbeams were not present. This means in most instances a time ex- posure of about one second and a small stop opening, although a snap- shot may do for bands of light sharply Outlined against dark rlottds, or other dark background. Sometimes these light paths appear during a summer shower, and, if pic- tured thus, the longor exposure is advisable, However, to give specific instruc- tions for catching sunbeams on your Ulm is really futile, consieering the Av staying Lehi, i Sunbeams of the early morning. A simple box camera caught them. which they appear. The safest way is to make several shots of the scene at different exposures, remembering that the experience is that in most instances the exposure needs to be longer than as if you were taking the same picture without the sus - beams, But when you have captured these elusive but, beautiful phe- nomena, of nature in the midst of a setting that is also beautiful, you will have a picture that you will be as proud of as any you have ever token. 100 JO•Ital VAN GITILDIM, ZURICH HERALD ENTIRE.
