weee~~ I’m back!
Sorry I was MIA. On Thursday, I had a sudden attack of conjunctivitis which caused me to be blind for a whole half day. I was freaked out like anything and left work immediately to see a doctor. I’ll tell you more about that later.
More importantly!!
I made a new purchase last week that I’m really excited to share. I’ve finally reinvested in a dslr after selling my Canon 450d two years ago. I swear I will learn how to use this properly and keep this camera until the end of time!! #nods
Here are some pictures I took.
And ofcourse, this can be a little beauty post too! These are my most recent shellac nails. Yes, they are my real nails!!! I’ve been shellacing for about.. 2 months now!
I call my nails my “claws” as you see on Instagram. They are majorly long!!
I know some of the pictures are still blurry, but I’m still learning so bare with me! :D
Here are some of the other test shots I made whilst testing out the settings on my camera. I used Manual setting for these!! #Reallyproud!
Does anyone have any photography tips they’d like to share with me?
I’d love to learn more about photography! ^__^”~






Manual
Check ISO
100 super sunny (sharp images)
400 day
1600 night (grainy not sharp)
Then Shutter speed
1/60 second above good for handheld
Any thing slower requires tripod
OR
Pick aperture F number
F1.8 good for bokeh
F8 good for sharp architecture shots
F22 good for sharp and long exposures
It’s a balancing act of all 3 of above
Good luck!
Ps Nikon is gooood
thanks Timmy!! i remember you from instagram!! love your photography =)
You missed the main thing.. Composition. No use having great technical settings if you cant frame a picture. ;)
you should listen to timmy~
and if you really wanted to get into camera’s, there are books specific for your slr’s model… either that, or just practice and you’ll get the hang of it :)
your nails look pretty though!
