Corona



A corona is the the last phase of a drop's impact on a liquid surface.

The corona has gained prominence in commercial advertisements of liquid products such as milk and several fruit juices.

So what does it take to capture a picture of a corona?

Drops do occur quite fast. And the corona on a surface is quite small. Perhaps one thinks of a high speed camera with a very powerful zoom.

Wrong!

We will tell you on our workshop on September 12 - 13, 2009.  Furthermore, we will give you the chance to create your own picture of a corona.

Many people think this for those who own SLR and high-end cameras.

Wrong!

This workshop is intended for all those who want to improve their photo taking skills.  There is much, much more to know than just taking out your camera, turning it on, focusing on your subject (and perhaps counting 1 - 3 and "Say cheese!"), and pressing the shutter.

We will impart to you what we have learned, not as professional photographers but as persons who also believe in capturing those moments but in capturing them better.

Most people think that this workshop is expensive.

Wrong!

Most photography workshops usually cost from PhP2000.00 to as much as PhP10000.00.

This workshop is only PhP800.00, with lunch, 2 snacks and flowing ice tea on the first day.

  4. Hehehe... Ikaw talaga Lhen, hindi mo nabasa ang footnote ko... Hindi ako ang may kuha ng larawan... :)

  5. Tama ka Dencios, di kailangan ng DSLR to take good pictures. Nasa taong kumukuha pa rin yan ng larawan... Pero may mga situations din kasi minsan na tumataas ang antas ng creative need, then at that point you may switch to a DSLR... Kaya lang sobrang laki ng investment. So ang point ko is ganito - if you have truly exhausted the capability of your digicam, and your artistic and creative needs are being hampered by it, then go buy a DSLR. Ang uso kasing attitude is "kailangan ng DSLR to take great pictures"... Yun ang mali... :)

  39. Nag-eenjoy ako pag ako ang kinukuhaan! Haha. I want to learn photography din.. Kaso cellphone lang ang meron ako.

    Pero sabi sa akin ni Fauxx, kahit 2 MP lang ang camera ng phone ko, pwede ako magpicture taking kahit saan.. at pwede ako makakuha ng magandang shots.

    At naniniwala nga ako doon!
