the gbc con ducting qisnapshot guild offguard pictures provide something for the subject to do to draw his attention away from the camera and you ii get more natural pictures the best pictures as a rule ap pear unposed they seem to have been taken without the sub jects knowledge and the result of course is that the subject ap pears more natural without any camera consciousness some subjects are free of camera consciousness they can potto quite easily and comfortably for any pic ture others stiffen up and try to toofc tftefr beat or insist an- watchlng the camera and such subjects must be caught off guard if you want a really effec tive picture that doesn t mean that the sub ject most be wholly unaware of tbe camera it simply means that his attention must be drawn elsewhere foensed on some other thine at the moment of exposure one simple solution is to glre the object something to do some thing to absorb his attention com pletely so be has none left orer for the camera for example consider the picture above the small girt too busy to wmteh the camera the must watch daddy who is going to catch her therefore while the pic ture baa obvloubly been arranged there in no stiffness it is a genuine off guard bhot another good trick is to place the rampra on a arm support pointing at the subject and keep your hand on the shutter release while you engage in conversation for example suppose you want some shots of johnny blowing soap hubbies place the camera on a iasai iablilox shajt s1t belde admire a bubble as it grows and trip the shutter casually when everything is as you like it youll and it easier and tbe subject will be more at ease than if you were peering at him through the view finder if your camera has a fairly rapid shutter that s an advantage use a shutter speed of 1100 or 1150 second and yon won t have to cau tion toe subject to hold stlll- now load up yotrr camera pick a subject that has prored dimcolt in the past and try these off guard method my guess is that youtl set more natural pleasing pictures v 2u john van golldar music for your dancing burins the summer months smooth dancing melodies will come out of the night for listeners of the cbc national
