Take several normal 'point and shoot' pictures to get a feel for the lighting at different times of the day and night. While many people find 'Golden Hour' (the last two hours of daylight) to be favorable light conditions to photograph in;Lighting is often dramatic and unusual to many people precisely because they never get to see it! 3障碍物Keep the lens clear of caps, thumbs, straps and other obstructions.any of these (often unnoticed) obstructions can ruin a photograph.people still make these mistakes when in a rush to take the image. 4白平衡Set your white balance.Unlike human eye which can automatically compensates for different kinds of lighting; A digital camera compensates for this by shifting the colors certain ways. like shift the colors towards blue to compensate for the redness of this lighting 5快门Set a slower ISO speed, if circumstances permit;A slower ISO speed (lower number) makes for less noisy photographs; however, it forces you to use slower shutter speeds as well, which restricts your ability to photograph moving subjects,but for still subjects in good light (or still subjects in low light, too, if you're using a tripod and remote release), use the slowest ISO speed that you have. 6构图Compose your shot thoughtfully.

Pick an angle that shows maximum color and minimum shadow. To make objects appear longer or taller, a low angle can help. You may also want to make the object look smaller or make it look like you're hovering over; to get the effect you should put the camera above the object. An uncommon angle makes for a more interesting shot. 8焦距Poor focusing is one of the most common ways that photographs are ruined; Use the automatic focus of your camera, if you have it; usually, this is done by half-pressing the shutter button. 9 Balance in ISO, shutter speed, and aperture

As a result, when they have yearning for music,they just choose the top several ones with simple melodies and understandable lyrics on the pop music chart; *什么歌手流行 Frankly speaking, I do not know many popular pop singers.I do fancy some songs of Taylor swift,Adele,adam lanbert,Maroon 5,owl city,They are all unique,own style,songs are healing, comforting and relaxing at times. electronic bands and rock bands known by less people; *听别的国家的歌吗 Back to many years ago,it'not that resisted beautiful music in foreign languages, just because they do not have the chance to listen to,do not understand the lyrics; along with the trend of globalization, people tend to hold an open mind on many kinds of things and choices. with the help of internet, *学过乐器吗 regrets of childhood;tried to learn piano,gift,cannot remember a tone,have a bad sense of rhythm,clumsy fingers; *去哪唱歌 Chinese young people and even middle aged adults always go singing in KTVs, while the elderly still tend to sing in the parks. Singing in KTVs has become a trend during the past few years. As a group activity, it is regarded simple, healthy, economical, fashionable, and most importantly helpful to socialize. Nonetheless, these benefits may seem unattractive to the elderly, as long as this activity costs money. Survived from the Great Chinese Famine, Chinese old people tend to save every penny besides necessary expenditure on food. Since no one bans singing in the park, old people pretty much enjoy singing there Is music an important subject in school? In fact, it depends on what other subjects you are comparing with. If you are referring to other social science subjects, such as ecology, philosophy, psychology and so on, I think music is treated more important. According to my personal experiences, music is always included in the school curriculum, while other listed subjects aren't. However, compared with some scientific subjects which are tested in the College Entrance Examination, music is the last primary choice. Why do some people say that music can help people relax? Rather than directly talking about why music relaxes people, I want to give a thought to why people feel stressful first. People often feel pressure at work, since they are worried about difficulty and urgency to accomplish their tasks, which may cause them fired by the big boss. However, when they are listening to music, they do not have any requirements or limits. They are freed immediately and completely, so that they become relaxed and happy. research has proved that playing musical instruments makes kids more intelligent/some catchy songs are pretty annoying touching/mushy/corny .Different people have different tastes in music。classical music tends to clam you down,while the pop music songs often excited,even wild.As for me ,pop music is preferred,although some people consider it doesn't have much depth,but i think it also can be inspiring sometimes.for instance,Bob Delay spoke of civil rights, nuclear fallout, and loneliness in his song which touched a nerve of disaffection,and Michael Jackson sang'we are the one to make a brighter day,let's just start giving',and so on.music makes us more imaginative and it molds our temperament as well into Rock Music,it is the rhythm and loudness that I'm so obsessed with. instrument: gain a better understanding of different types of music and different cultures;develop self-discipline because it's challenging and takes a lot of time and effort.

We cannot genuinely apologize if we can't admit to ourselves that we made a mistake; Placing the blame on someone else is easy. Making excuses and skirting the subject is easy. Assuming the full weight of blame on our own shoulders, however, is very hard; Learning to apologize is the first and most important step in the healing process. Not only does it show the recipient that you acknowledge their right to feel hurt, but it opens the way to forgiveness; sometimes the other person might not be ready to accept your apology,we need to allow time to heal the wounds.An apology cannot undo what has been done, but it can help ease the pain and tension of the aftermath. It gives hope for rebuilding, and puts value on the relationship rather than the individual's pride;
