Like leopards, they come from different sources, and have different properties.
Some are natural (Sun, Moon, stars, fire)
Some are man-made (Torchlight, iPods, cellphones)
In photography, there are two main sources.
Natural (Sun, Moon, fireflies), and artificial (flash gun, softbox, spotlight).

Hey guys! It’s the first episode of the Slam The Pixels (STP) series!
Remember, you also have the right to say, or should I say, slam on the picture. Just keep it constructive and smart. If you have anything to ask about the picture, ask me or the sender. Don’t assume, coz ASSUME only makes an […]
12 + 29 + 9 = 50. What the heck is that? A formula for world peace? Or simply a math function for a 1st Grader?
Hey…I know that. That is the number of days that I did not post any single damn posts on this blog!
Before you throw any sheep at me (Facebook users should […]
Howdy people! I’m moving to a new domain, PhotoPips.com. The primary reason behind it, is branding, because the domain ReallySimplePhotography.com is a one heck of a looooooooooong name! Basically, PhotoPips stands for PHOTOgraPhytIPS. Now that’s about 14 letters shorter!
I’m branding the new domain. I’m also changing my theme. And restructure the whole damn thing. And […]
These days, if you don’t have a camera phone, you are pretty much a Stone Age guy. No, taping your digicam to your cordless home telephone does not work it. A camera phone is defined by a camera integrated in a cellphone, or a cellphone integrated in a camera (heck, I don’t know if there’s […]

What do you get when you throw a rubber ball at a wall? It will bounce back to you. You don’t believe me? Try it. Oh, and make sure no one else’s around. You don’t want it to hit them right in the gut. It hurts, you know.
Obviously, if you throw a pie at […]
It always happened during the night, or other dim-lighted places that required you to turn on your camera’s flash. After the shooting, all is well, and everyone went home. You popped your memory card in your PC, and transfer the picture. And suddenly, you screamed so loud, that you could wake up the dead.
Why?

Ouch. That’s gotta hurt. Fortunately, Santa’s now can find it easier to navigate through Christmas skies around the world, thanks to the North American Aerospace Defence Command (NORAD), a military operation run jointly by the United States of America and Canada.
But how could a military joint operation help our good ol’ trusty Santa, you might […]
If something is hard, how do we soften it?
If it’s a sponge, add some water. If it’s a metal, melt it. If it’s a cookie, dip it in a glass of milk. But what about light? You can’t add water to it. Heck, how do you plan to melt light? And no, don’t even think […]
