Chennai Photography Club announces Shuttershoot – Royapuram Fishing Harbour

Chennai Photography Club is organizing a Shuttershoot on the 3rd Oct 2010 at the Royapuram Fishing Harbour. There will be multiple photo opportunities during this shoot and those reaching the venue before sunrise will benefit the most.

About the Location

The Royapuram fishing harbour has provided the location for many films and now Chennai Photography Club. The Chennai Photography Club has been to the Harbour couple of times earlier. We concentrate our photoshoot to the less intrusive and the less controversial outer bund.

The Harbour is a general fishing harbour with a bund around it to protect the motor boats from the sea and has a 100 metre or so opening somewhere at the centre of the bund.


What do we get to shoot

The location is very good for shooting sunrise shots as the bund takes you well into the sea and also provides some amount of elevation which you do not get in a beach. In a beach we tend to get waves ,etc in the foreground but here you can expect to get a boat and the round sun in your picture

You can at times get a crab or two to shoot and as an added bonus you may get to  shoot some silhouettes , portraits , etc

The Plan

The participants to reach the venue sharp by 5.30 am (if you would like to get the sunrise shot, the best for the day)

We meet on the bund and then start taking pictures and then end the shoot by about 7 am

How to reach the venue

Drive all the way from the parry’s corner on the ennore highway to reach the N4 police station. Just beside the N4 Police station on the ennore highway is the entrance to the fishing harbour bund. Just before the police station you will also find a petrol bunk

DO NOT enter the fishing harbour office entrance that this well before this entrance on ennore highway

Camera Lens F-Stop Values Explained

Lens aperture settings are commonly knows as f-stops. The letter "f" is an abbreviation of the term "focal-ratio", which describes the ratio of the lens's focal length to the diameter of the light entrance pupil (more commonly called the aperture). The standard sequence of f-stops is: f/1.4 f/2 f/2.8 f/4 f/5.6 f/8 f/11 f/16 f/22 On this scale, an f/1.4 setting is the largest aperture, while f/22 is the smallest, and each f-stop in the sequence is half the size of its neighbour to the left, and twice the size of its neighbour to the right. In other words, f/5.6 permits the passage of twice as much light as f/8, but only half the light of f/4. Low f-stop numbers represent larger apertures, and higher f-stop numbers indicate smaller apertures because the f-stop is a ratio is between the size of the aperture and the focal length of the lens; i.e. a bigger number represents a larger difference. Here's the maths for a 50mm lens. f-stop / Diameter (...

Awesome Facebook & SEO Training Resources

If you’ve been following the site you’ve probably seen a few of the Facebook videos I’ve created over the past week or so. To be honest I had a whole bunch more planned, but I might have come up with something even better for you. Let me explain… Last week I got an email from a business I follow and respect – they create awesome looking Facebook pages for businesses and they also have a cool piece of software that I purchased a license to a while back which lets you easily create your own custom Facebook pages at the push of a button. I was actually going to create a video this week showing the tool in action…but I might not need to anymore because these guys have just launched a full-blown Facebook training course which they’re giving away for free – and the outline looks pretty good so far. So I came up with a new plan. I’m going to recommend that you sign yourself up for their training  – these guys really know what they’re talking about. They’ve got over 31,00...

Automatically Update Your Facebook Page From Your Photo Blog

This video shows you step by step how to automatically create a post on your Facebook wall whenever you add a new post to your blog, without needing to do any extra work. This is a great way to keep people coming back to your website every time you add something new, espcially when you get to the stage where your Facebook page has hundreds, and even thousands of fans. One thing I forgot to mention in the video is that there are many app’s that will post your blog to a tab on your Facebook page, but this is virtually worthless. You see the only way people will come and check out your stuff is if it gets posted on their wall via your wall. And the best way to do this is to create a direct link between your blog and your Facebook wall using the method showed in this video, rather than using one of the Facebook app’s that simply creates a tab called ‘Blog’. For some people this may seem fairly advanced, but the reason I’ve included it is because it can be very powerful for yo...
