AO YOU remember 'way back 3 when grandmother's "parlor" vas furnished with the very latest iorse-hair furniture, the "lovely cound "center table" with its marble top, the huge portraits with their leep, heavy gilded frames and the \lways present "what-not" with its wssorted display of "bric-a-brac? » Wouldn't you like to have a picture of it to help recall fond memories of lays gone by? Believe it or not but it will'not be many years until you will be trying to picture in your mind some of the furniture and furnishings you had in your home when you were a child or perhaps when you were first mar- ried, Interior snapshots will serve as "memory insurance." Don't put off taking these pictures any longer for making them is not at all difficult; in fact you will enjoy it. Here are a few pointers that may help you in making your first shots. If you take your interior pictureg "in the daytime the chances are that you will have to take a time exposure unless your camera is equipped with a very fast lens, say 1.3.6 or faster. If a time exposure is necessary you will have to use.a tripod or else place the camera on some solid support such as a table. Even with an 1.3.6 lens you should have some substan- tial support for your camera for you will probably find it necessary to take your shot at 1/6 or 1/10 of a gecond, and at speeds slower than | 1/26 of a second it is extremely dif- ficult to hold the camera steady. Any movement of the camera will cause a blurred picture. | The secret of success in indoor pletures lies in controlling the light PEACHES i PEACHES ~~ NOW IN PICKLES--Cauliflowers Anthony Caruso, Prop.

To wegin with, never point your camera directly at the window or door through which the greatest amount of light is com- ing. Keep the light behind or to the side of the camera. If, as sometimes happens, a sunny window is in a particular part of the house you want to take, you can eliminate sun-glare by a very simple trick. Pull the shade of that particular window clear down and keep it down for an exposure long enough to give you the other features and details, Then, close the shutter and run the shade_ back to the camera and, without changing the film or the camera's, position, open the shutter again for a half second longer. It's a good idea to use a very small lens stop in taking indoor pictures, * because you want detail. Focus on a . point about half-way between the camera and the far side of the room; then, when the lens is stopped down you will find that practically Lal thing is in sharp focus. Avoid including large pioies of furniture in the foreground; lest they take up more space in the Plate than they deserve. Exposure time will vary, of course, with the brilliance of the daylight and the degree to which the walls reflect light. On a bright day, pic- tures in a predominantly light col- ored room ean be taken with an ex. posure of five or ten seconds. On dull days, in dark rooms having only one window, you will need as much as - five minutes, with the lens at 1.16. "Memory Insurance" costs but little: so load your camera. today for {nterior pictures that in later years will be worth a lot.
