Photographer Suggestions 2

===============

 

1. Never carry more equipment than you can run with.

 

2. Don't drink too much before going on an assignment where you

     may miss your picture if nature calls.

 

 

3. Don't drink alcoholic beverages before an assignment, your

    reaction time will be slower.

 

4. Don't drink too much alcoholic beverages == hangovers are hell

     through a viewfinder.

 

 

5. Carry a compass in your equipment bag, you may need to know

    where the sun sets.

 

6. If you can see it == you can shoot it.

 

7.Quantity of light for exposure == Quality of light for mood.

 

8/  Daylight is immovable == set your subject to the main

       source.

 

9/  Understanding light, breaths' life into your pictures.

 

10. To learn the magic of light, get up before sunrise and watch.
