The Thought....
Sunrise on Loch Lomond
This photograph is part of series of photographs I took of Loch Lomond in Scotland. The first few photographs show the sun rising from behind the mountains, making the scene look on fire.
The boat and part of the mountains are in silhouette creating a very moody and a clam atmosphere in the scene. This emphasises the scale and the light falling on the Loch and the boat. I used a tripod and colours of the final image were edited in photoshop.

Aperture mode / Aperture Priority: (AV) the mode that automatically calculates the shutter speed when you choose the aperture you want to use.
Camera shake: is when the camera moves as you press the button, causing the image to be blurred.
Close-up / Macro: means close-up photography and is great to photographs of flowers, bugs, shells and other tiny objects.
Composition: arranging objects in the photographs that look pleasing. Also see Rule of Thirds.
