[QUOTE="satria_95, post: 135004, member: 1506"] PoisonIvy, Other than this forum, there are specific photography focused forums like... 1) http://www.mykamera.com.my (click on forums once it loads up) 2) http://www.photomalaysia.com (currently down due to God only knows what) These are the 2 that I know that are local. Unsure if there are any other good local ones. Just to start off this thread a little deeper, I'll share some basic tips on photography that I know of in relation to holiday shots. 1) When shooting a scenery with 1, 2 or 3 person in it, use the "target" that's usually in the middle of the screen (all cameras has it, whether digital or not) and point it to 1 of the person. Then press the shutter release button (the button that's used to take photos), half way down and let the camera perform it's focus settings and lock it. Continue to hold the button down half way and move the camera so that the people / group of people are at one side of the screen / view finder / etc. Once done that, press the remaining half of the shutter button to capture the photo. This way allows both a larger view of the scenery together with the people in it, rather than the people standing in the middle of the photo and thus, blocking the scenery behind. 2) If you have a lot of people / a group of people, separate them such that half of them is on one side of the photo and the other half on the other side. Another way is to have all of them kneel or squat down or keep them low, so that you can capture a larger view of the scenery and also the people, though the people will not be standing in full. 3) When shooting scenery at night, always use a tripod (camera stand with 3 legs) to have maximum stability of the camera. Most digital cameras will detect brightness and in low light conditions, the camera will give you "slow" settings. In "slow" settings, every single move of the camera will spoil the shot. It is 99.9% impossible to hand hold a night scene shot. Use a tripod, set the timer and let the camera shoot by itself when the timer goes off. The camera should not be moved once the timer starts and after the camera has fully captured the shot.
