#2: Joy
Posted in Landscapes, Nature on December 17th, 2009 by Usha – 5 Comments
Today I saw a fellow photographer’s (Peter Györffy) first attempt at posting a video tutorial.
I watched it with interest and learned a few things that I did not know before. This inspired me to dig out an image that I created during a recent workshop and work on it to practice the techniques I learned. This is the result. I wish the flares were not as prominent. I do not take many landscape images. So this one was important for me to finish.
As always, any comments/suggestions you may have will be gratefully accepted.
#1: Welcome to my Moments of Exposure

Hi everybody,
Thanks for stopping by. I am inspired, excited and a little scared at being here and taking the plunge to start a photoblog. Over the years, I have watched several great friends and fellow photographers make this commitment and have followed their blogs with interest. I have learned so very many things from each of them.
At some point, I realized that I was tending to spend a lot of time listening, watching and learning and not so much time photographing myself and taking an image to completion. At this point, I decided to commit to starting a photoblog myself. This is a vehicle that I am hoping will encourage me to shoot more, and take images to completion…enough to be able to show people. That in and off of itself will motivate me to grow as a photographer.
Moments of Exposure is a name my husband, Murali came up with…thanks Murali. This name to me means not only that specific moment when you commit to the image and shoot it, but also the moments when you feel exposed and vulnerable. It is my belief that from these moments of exposures, one grows in life.
Thank you for stopping by and showing support. I appreciate it very much.
