Kai,

Most people make the mistake of moving too soon after they take a photo. You have to stand very still while you are taking it, and pause for a second or two afterwards.

Of course, the easiest way to really impact your picture quality is with a little travel tripod. Cheap, portable and you’ll get much better results.

I still have a lot of problems taking good photos with a digital camera no matter how much lessons I take. Even with non-moving objects, my pictures always come out blurry. I don’t think my hands shake that much.

I take my hat off to photographers. They are true artists who never cease to amaze me with their ability to make even the mundane look special!

Always amazes me what a focus action seems to be capable of accomplishing. Fun post, thank you!! :)

It’s certainly not an easy job as we see in the video. I cannot imagine I doing it myself but I have determined to get some of them happening using my new Nikon SLR camera next month onwards.

Very nice. I am a photographer too. This is a very serious business, and trust me, you didn’t see all in this clip. It’s a hard work. The harder part it’s not at shooting, it’s at post-production. I spent many hours in front of the computer to make 2-3 excellent pictures. Anyway, it’s a lovely hobby that brings cash :)

I never realized that there was so much involved in a professional shoot. Granted, most of my photography consists of women and I’m more concerned about their body parts than I am about lighting, I do a decent amount of car and still life photography as well. However, most of that is done on the fly; and if it isn’t done with a cell phone camera, chances are it is still looks like it was taken at a similarly sophomoric level.
