When someone is a public figure they want to show the best picture of themselves and share it to others to see and admire. In the original picture he he was posing with a cigar in his mouth and that is not the right image to share to the public.With the use of photoshop they were able to remove it showing a better looking photo.

The photo manipulation was not meant to be noticed.

This photo is of a Syrian fighter opposing against the government in a Telata village. Narciso Contreras admitted that he digitally removed his colleague’s video camera from the left corner so it wouldn't distract viewers from the main point of the photo. He covered it by using Photoshop and cloning the pieces from the background.

This video is showing us how to do a moving pan photograph. 

the idea is to highlight a moving subject while creating motion or creating blur surrounding it 

it is easiest to pull off this technique if your subject passes directly from where you’re standing, this will keep your subject on the same focal plane

 start with a shutter speed between one thirtieth  and one sixtieth of a second as a starting point, also close your aperture a bit

move your camera at the speed which your target subject passes in front of you 

This video is about using shutter speed

Components of Exposure: Aperture, shutter speed, and ISO

shutter speed is the amount of time that a physical shutter inside your camera opens and closes, this exposes a censor in your camera to light

the longer your shutter is opens it allows more light making the image brighter 

with a shorter shutter speed less light is coming into your camera making the image darker

it also dictates how motion appears in your photo

the longer your shutter speed the more movement you’ll see

there are 2 types of motion in photography: the 1st one is in-front of your camera and the 2nd is in your camera

This article is about capturing a sense of motion or movement in dancing photos:

it’s important to realize that there are 2 exposures happening at the same time in a photo

the 1st is ambient light 

we need to have a slow shutter speed to create the motion blur from the lights

the shutter speed you choose is dependent on how long you want the streaks of light and how fast you are swing your camera

the 2nd is your flash 

flash makes the subject visible and sharp 

swinging the camera: it is important to know that whatever way you swing the camera, the light will streak in the opposite direction

This article is about approaching and capturing action shots.

take a photo of anyone they don’t have to be well known 

good communication with the athlete

Shoot close with a wide angle, or tight with a telephoto

keep in mind that you want the viewer to see what the athlete is doing

be very conscientious of your composition
