You read the title. Yes, I reckon it is time for me to share a few photographs which I took using my new camera which I bought a few days ago. I did not really explore the camera yet since the first day I bought. Not saying I’m too busy but it’s just the problem with the weather. It’s been raining for a few days and the sky was too dark for photography. So, I guess I postponed my plan for this weekend and luckily yesterday the weather turned up nice. Well, not as nice as I expected but at least it was quite pleasant to go out and take some photos. Considering I go to Central London very seldom, I reckon it’s a good idea to explore new places this weekend and not to forget the most important thing is to have an experiment with my new baby girl.
Those are a few shots taken while I was walking to the jetty. I found it quite awkward at first with Canon settings considering I’ve been using Nikon for a couple of years before I sold every single piece in order to come here, for the sake of flight ticket. However, after a few days I began to familiarize the settings and buttons as well. It isn’t that complicated when you always play with it. As for now, my photos tend to be both under and overexpose due to various settings which I still learn how to manage it correctly depending on certain circumstances. The LCD sometimes tricks me. When I take a photo and have a look at the LCD screen, it looks a bit dark and need wee bit of exposure but when I adjust it, the photo becomes too bright which the previous one is actually okay. It happens when you’re under the bright sky or sun and the LCD screen tends to show the incorrect kind of image exposure. So, you have to be really careful on that or else, all photos will be overexpose due to wrong calculation.
Furthermore, the weather was a bit tricky yesterday. If you make a mistake by adding up too much exposure, the photo becomes overexpose easily. But there’s nothing I could do since the sky was also surrounded with white clouds.
P.S : Sorry if the photos aren’t as stunning as you expected. Was trying so hard to get the best photos with the right settings. Need a lil’ time to get used with those new stuff.
