Genre photos.
Astrophotography is a popular, but very expensive photography genre, in which not many masters can afford to work. The essence of the genre is to shoot astronomical objects in outer space. Astrophotography is mainly used for scientific research and is very popular among scientists and astronomers. Astrophotography photographers photograph stars, nebulae, planets.

Types of photos
The first photograph was taken in 1822, and since then photography has firmly entered our life, finding application in various areas of human life.

Modern types of photos
No artist has ever worked at once in all genres. So now, a rare photographer dares to take pictures of nature, cityscapes, people, animals, insects, and sporting events at the same time.

This picture is very similar to the creation of paintings.
By the number of genres, visual arts are inferior to modern photography. The jump happened just a couple of decades ago. There was a huge number of lenses and cameras with new features.

Photo Basics
This course will help camera owners to deal with camera buttons, leave the “AUTO” mode in the past and learn how to shoot in difficult lighting conditions. And those who do not have a camera yet, will give the necessary criteria for the informed choice of a tool.

And 7 people out of 10 – just delete photos that did not work out and will not look for the reasons for the “failure”. After all, a memory card holds gigabytes of pictures.

The course “Fundamentals of Photography” teaches you to shoot consciously. This is when the person who shoots can explain why the photo looks like it looks. Continue reading
