On Matters of Stability and Light

I set up the tripod on top of the wall above the beach. A tripod helps stabilize the image for crisper shots, but they're pain in the butt to lug around. I got a portable one, which is versatile and easy to deploy in the field. I still have to touch the camera because my wifi-phone connection hasn't been working properly. A connection would allow me to take the snap with the phone interface and thus avoid touching the camera.

The telephoto lens is fun to play with, but I have to zoom in to make it work, or you get the effect seen on the above shot.

I like how this one turned out. The colours just pop! It was a cool cloudy day as it has been for weeks. This soft autumn light is not great for lifting the mood, but it's great for vibrant photography without the harsh glare of sunlight. At least that's what I tell myself 😆

I like manual clickers as they are not dependent on blue tooth.

Many new cameras use software stabilization. They sample the light over time then have an algorithm that stitches the image back together.

Videographers need things like that. Unfortunately, it means that new cameras incclude some ai. This ai distorts the image but makes compelling images.

This is excellent information. Thank you. I have a clicker for the phone but not the camera.

Mine is a small Olympus TG6, so it's limited in power and accessories. It has modes like backlight HDR and focus stacking, which takes several sequential shots and stitches them together for sharper, crisper, and more vibrant photos. A tripod is recommended for these modes because you have to hold the camera steady for a few seconds. This is difficult to do when you're in tricky terrain. Photography is an art and science.

It looks as if the coloured areas have been painted; there is a beautiful and perfect contrast!

That's what I was thinking. I think the soft light contributed to this effect.
