just saw the pics on fb, and i have to say it was horrendous, to say the least. yes, a point and shoot cam implies just that, but one has to take note to at least utilise the flash if he/she isn't confident of steadying the cam whilst shooting.
i get quite miffed when pple take photos in low light conditions w/o flash, in a stance where both arms are away from oneself in a boxing-like stance. liddat the pix sure blur one la! and it seeems the ISO wasn't even increased accordingly.
this is what u get when u neglect using flash and u can't hold the cam steady
no, this is not an artistic shot. it's simply overexposed. and lacks symmetry.
just feel strongly abt it cos it's her big occasion, being the 21st and all, and photos serve to preserve one's own memories of the event and the happenings. yes, maybe the other cams may turn out to have decent pictures, but the story told by her own photos would be forever etched with imperfection and bear little resemblance to the vibrant evening that transpired.
or maybe it's alright in her eyes. i wouldn't know. but given a situation where my own photos are summarily judged/criticised by experienced photographer relatives, i feel it's normal to be unduly upset abt some seemingly basic errors that i felt shouldn't have been perpetrated.
but i did use ethel's new cam to capture a few key moments (hurriedly) so at least i tried to help la. yes, yes. i think i shall go back to my studying and stop my whining.
