Getting unusual candle shots!
Written by Anurag Bhateja on April 20, 2008 – 8:00 pm -
This is one of the most appreciated shots that I have uploaded on flickr. Till date it got 280+ views. Now I am revealing the secret behind this shot for amateur photographers.
1. 1st this required is multiple number of different sized candles.
2. 2nd most important thing is a dark area like a closed room or you can do it at night time. I used the area under stairs in night time and switched off all the lights around me.
3. Now Set your cam to manual and get the settings shutter 1/200, f/2.7 and ISO 100. Well these are the settings I used you can vary F value for variation in DOF.
4. Now set the mode to super macro.
5. Light up the candles. Set the candles in the style you want. I took three candles and tilted them so that each one give support to other candles.
6. Now if you click the shot the flame will come straight. The real thing starts here. Shooting in area where there is lot of moment in air, good shots will not come. To get shots better along with moment in flame you have to just blow air from your mouth very lightly.
7. Continues practice and some shots will surly give you a cool unusual shot!
Enjoy!
