ENJOYED the Snapshot Guild article last week very much, for taking snapshots of my children is almost a hobby with me," wrote a reader, "I was hoping, however, that you would tell mothers how to in- cjude themselves in the picture with their children," she continued. Perhaps others are interested in this subject. The self timer is'a most fascinating little gadget and almost human in its operation. It is an inex- pensive accessory that fits over the metal button or plunger, at the end of the cable release, which you press to take a snapshot with a fold- ing camera. It cannot, however, be used unless the camera is fitted with a cable release, Here is how it works. First you lo- cate your subject in the finder and at the. same time plan the space you will occupy when you step into the picture, Suppose you want to take "a picture of Jane-sitting in your lap as you read to her. You will have to have the camera on a tripod, table or something solid. Locate the chair in the finder--and be sure you can see all of the chair, espe- cially the upper part of the back where your head will appear--for if you are not careful you will find you have decapitated yourself when the finighed prints are returned. If the plcture is to be taken in- doors you will have to apply all the rules of indoor snapshooting. The diaphragm should be set at 7.6.8, the shutter speed at either 1/10 or 1/25 of a second-and you will need one or two photoflood lamps placed in an ordinary floor lamp (with the Lshade removed) to give more illu. mination to the side away from the outside light, When the diaphragm is set at the proper opening with the correct shutter speed, the same as if you were going to: snap the picture yourself, set the self timer for ten seconds or a minute, depend: ing on how long it will take you to get into the chair with Jane com- - fortably seated in your lap, ready to listen~to your stqry. Turn on the photoflood lamp, slip the timer over the hutton at the end of the cable 1release, press the.little release lever on the self timer and it starts buzz. ing away, and then--click--it- has taken your picture. In spite of the simplicity of the procedure Jane is going 'to get a thrill out of it and when the picture is snapped .she'll probably be por- traying a. million dollar smile-- and this will add much to the value of the picture. You can purchase the self timer attachment from almost any store that sells cameras. They are not ex- pensive and last a lifetime, Some caméras have self-timers in- corporated in the shutter so if you have this type of camera and have never used the self-timer you have missed a lot of fun and picture possibilities. CHALK LAKE Mrs. Roy Corbman has returned home after spending several weeks with her father, who has been ill. On Monday evening, April 28th, about eighty friends and neighbours gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs, Edward Lee for a farewell party be- fore leaving our neighbourhood. -Mr. Dean Parrott has returned home for the summer from 0.A.C.
