1. Insects

Since the first time I had a camera in my hand, i was fond of clicking pictures of insects. =)). This camera's 6.3-12.6mm zoom lens (equivalent to a 42-84mm lens on a 35mm film camera) was pretty good for me.. at least when i got an upgrade from a VGA camera through it. The funny thing what I believed was that a higher pixel camera.. would help me click a sharper image of an object close to my camera.. =)) came to know later that this 'close-up' photography was not that possible with my cam. Anyways, here are some of my tries on insects :)


A Dragonfly(i suppose :p):

Few butterfly clicks:
I clicked some 45+ photos of this butterfly.. hoping to get a better photo every time. I still remember, this butterfly stayed constantly at a place.. as if she waited me, to click her pictures.

Grasshopper:
Clicked 38 photos.. just to get a better one =)
Date: 31/03/09






Cockroach:
I took 15+ shots for this, but couldn't get a wider aperture than f/3.8
Date: 08/03/09





Huh! My pre-boards are on their way.. starting by 15th. I've got to complete my physics and practicals files before this + a chemistry project and a project on 'Global warming' :-/

So would be uploading rest photos after I'm done with them. See you soon! :)

Photography's first experience!




That's just what I named my computer folder, where i stored my first photos!
The first time when I saw this focus changing thing through my cam and that too under my control, I was so fascinated that I clicked almost 45 photos of a caterpillar :D though most of them came really poor. My hands were pretty shaky, I didn't got DOF where I wanted it to be, I went opposite to light many a times with no proper alignment and many other things =)) (I'm still not perfect with these things :D)

I uploaded nearly 15 of them to Flickr ... named the caterpillars; green one "Chintu" and the orange one "Pintu" :D Anyways, here are some of my first ones =))

Intro

Hi! I'm Aaron! :)

I'm studying in 12th right now, from St. Paul School, Indore!

I'm an amateur photographer(still learning =)). I use a Sony DSC-P51- a 2mp camera, which my brother gifted me! (I use many different cameras now-a-days, although I don't own them :))

I'm really thankful to Mr. Gunjan Karun.. as he gave me the inspiration to build this blog. Actually I was checking a post on his blog, where he was talking about the pixel count, that "The extra mega pixel in the camera has zero affect on the quality of the photo or colors or exposure etc." Although I was sure about it, but looking at same words from an expert, makes me feel more sure! Thank you again, sir! :)

I would also like to thank Vivek bhaiya . When he said to me that my 2mp work made him into photography, I felt really proud. This really gives me kick to work more with this cam.

I surely believe that a 2mp mobile camera can never be as good as a 2mp compact camera. May be I'll continue my work with this gear and may be someday I'll save some money for a new guitar :D

Btw I want to be a macro photographer. I give my try on macro, landscapes, potraits, conceptuals and some experiments. My last work with this cam was probably around Sep 09, so these are pretty old pictures. Here, I'll only share my 2mp work. Till then, thank you! :)
