Taking the 1st Step

As the title sounds, taking the first step is never easy and my journey of learning how DSLR works does not run far from the meaning as well.

To those who knows how to use DSLR camera like eating a cake, I've bet when they started their first step, it was not so easy as well but then, with pure passion as well as determination, they are where they are right now. Knowing how aperture works to how does ISO configure are all part and parcel of every day picture taking experience. Once you know how to play these configuration around, then you are actually ready to snap picture away but wait, how do you know which combination works with what kind of environment? A good photographer that i know says, if you see your picture is nice enough, it's already nice. The hard part is getting the moment. You can take a still glass of water, or  you could even take picture of a flower but then, would that make them a great pictures? I don't think so. What makes them great then? I'm not saying i'm good in taking picture but then, i do understand what is trying to be said by the professional to someone as rookie as me. Moment happen when fox jump into his prey or even an eagle catching its prey, the live action appear in your moment with a perfect timing as well as quality picture, that what makes a picture great.



For someone like me, starting with a static object would be the easiest part. Taking picture in a good lighting is normally the easiest in DSLR world in comparison that is.
