If your interest in photography is waning and your pictures show a certain sameness of subject and technique, take yourself and your camera out for a night on the town. Not long ago, shooting pictures at night by available light was almost exclusively a job for professionals. But improvements in films and cameras have changed all that. Today, an amateur with almost any 35mm camera can turn out spectacular nighttime pictures. First load your camera with fast film. "Fast" refers to à film's sensitivity to light, which is measured in terms of ASA or ISO. The higher its ASA or ISO, the more sensitive the film is to light. For nighttime photography, choose film with at least a 400 ISO rating. Recently, in fact, 1000-ISO films have been introduced for both prints and slides. yvith a 1000-speed film in your camera, you'll probably be able to take nighttime pictures without a special camera camera support, such as a tripod. What should you shoot? Look for interesting store windows. windows. Shoot down on busy intersections or streets (a slow shutter speed will turn headlights and taillights into abstract streaks of color). j Aim at brightly lighted buildings, signs, fountains or statuary. Capture Christmas light displays, bridges, anything anything with bright lights. Your camera's built-in light meter will generally give you a correct exposure, but to be safe "bracket" each shot by taking the same picture with the exposure one f-stop over and one f-stop under the reading. Tf you need a shutter speed slower than 1/30 of a second, second, use camera support. : A tripod is best, but you can brace your camera on the roof of a car, the back of a bench, the top of a fence or almost anywhere it will be held steady. • \ Catch a Panorama You've always wanted a picture of the view in front of your house or maybe of the house itself, but your •camera just can't lake in the entire panorama. What can you do? Z Of course, if you have a 35mm single-lens reflex camera) camera) you can invest in a wide-angle lens. But, if you have a steady hand and a pair of scissors, you can put together your own wide-angle picture with any camera, wr Just stand in one spot and shoot a series of pictures 'in' an arc. You can make the arc as broad as you'd like, even a complete circle. ■! As you shoot, however, try to keep the camera level and at the same height for each shot. Be sure each picture picture overlaps the previous one slightly so there'll be no gaps in your final product. Using a tripod will make this project easier, but it's hot absolutely necessary. When your prints come back from the finisher, just trim them carefully and assemble them into the entire panorama. Catch Some Action "Put a little pizzazz into your photos by going where the action is," suggests Bartev Toumajan, a spokesperson spokesperson for National Photo Month. Little League baseball games, school athletic events, auto races, even motocross bicycle races all offer opportunities opportunities for new and exciting photos. Take some time to watch the action, then pick a spot that will let you get good pictures. Remember, a fast 'shutter speed will help you "freeze" the action in your pictures. If you can't adjust your shutter speed, try to lake fast- moving people or objects coming toward you, rather than moving from one side to the other of your picture. "You'll have more success keeping your pictures sharp that way. To capture the feeling of motion, especially in something something like a car race, try panning with the action. Panning is simply moving the camera smoothly in the same direction as your photo subject is moving, rather like a duck hunter aiming his shotgun as his prey flies past. When panning is done correctly, the main subject is sharp, but the background is blurred and streaked in the direction of movement. That effect really expresses the feeling of speed. If your camera has an adjustable shutter speed, use 1/60 of a second or slower. And try taking several shots. Good panning is a matter of practice and some luck. Pick a Subject / Your home, wherever it is, is packed with good photographs. photographs. It's just a matter of recognizing them. One way to develop an "eye" for good photos is to pick a single photo subject. Spend a day in your community shooting one category of subjects. You can choose signs, churches, bridges, houses, people -- the list is infinite. By sticking to one subject, you'll find yourself more aware of differences in color and composition, and you'll be more likely to try new approaches to a picture. The photographic results of your exercise can make an interesting display, especially in one of the many collage-style frames now on the market.

A Perfect Season For The Tigers! Jim Potter, coach of the Bowmanville Tigers squirt soccer team and researcher of local soccer history, can't remember the last time any team completed a whole season season without losing one game. But that's exactly what his team did this year when the Tigers defeated the Bowmanville Bowmanville Beavers in the final cup playoffs on Saturday, September 24, at Tyrone. Right from the start, the Tigers and Beavers played a fast paced, aggressive game that clearly showed why each team had won their respective respective divisional playoffs. However, the Tigers got on the scoreboard first when Andy Griffin took advantage of a penalty kick. Within minutes of half-time, Chris Pott tied the game when he utilized his solid kick to place the ball in the top corner of the net where goal tender, Robbie Austin stood no chance to stop it. At the start of the second half, the Tigers applied an offensive press that led to their second goal, scored by Craig Sabine. But again, Chris Pott, the "one man wrecking crew" tied the de Grootevheen and the strong offense from Robbie Austin and Joel Osborne. Spectators were anticipating anticipating overtime play when, with only three minutes left, Jamie Potter once again got the pass he needed to slip the ball past the Beaver's net minder. Solid defense supplied supplied by Andrew Wraith and Greg Patterson allowed the score to stand at 3-2. Congratulations go to the other team members who clearly showed their abilities abilities to work together. They included Benjamin Hardy, David Dustan, Stephanie McAleese, Tyler McDonald, Timothy Hardy and Kristy Happy First Birthday Hi there! My name is James Douma and I just had my first birthday.
