Try some like It thls Hallowe'enl l;uALLOWE'EN, with its parties, lei.decorations, and grotesque masa querades, offers fine opportunity for rreird,.unusual pictures. And these ,ace easy—it's mostly just a matter .,c,rf placing your photo bulbs, to ob- . fain b-.,fain a novel lighting effect. 'Ordinarily, photo bulbs are placed ..at the subject's eye level, or above. •'But for weird effects, you place them low—so that the light shines ;,•upward into the subWeot'e face. It's a simpletrick, but it produces sur- prising results. Try this idea in ajack-o'-lantern :,,shot, such as the one above. Use : hist one small No, 1 flood bulb in- = side the pumpkin, at a distance of - two feet from the subject's tree. For box cameras load with high speed Riau, of course, and open to the tarp .est lens aperture. For finer camerae .and high speed film, set the shutter eller 1/25 second and lees aperture 05it t/11, lecidbntally, see that the .eilb eto bulb does not touch the wet interior of the pumpkin, nor shine directly into the camera lens (via Jack's nose or eyes). Use the same idea for a picture of the "witch's cauldron" at the Hal- lowe'en party. Simply place the light down in the kettle—allowing it to shine up in the "witch's" face. Also, get a shot of a group listening to a ghost story. For this one, place photo lights at floor level, or conceal them back in the fireplace, to imitate firelight. You'll need two bulbs for title shot, and exposure data will be found in any snapshots -at -night leaf- let, 'which you can get without charge .from your photographic dealer. It's fun to play with these effects, but don't overlook other Hallowe'en activities, Get shots of the games ducking for apples . , , costumes and masks serving of refresh- ments. Make the party record com- piete, and then you can enjoy it over and over again. 346 John van (Wilder Wednesday, (fetcher 29th, 1941 Topping .cup brown sugar 1 tablespoon, flour ria cup water Heat to boiling point the sugar, flour and water; cook the mixture until dt forms a soft ball when a little is dropped into a cup of mid water.
