🦉- There are a lot challenges we face as a Photographer in Ethiopian - To list some , Equipment , taxation is a bit rough ,Getting the right information , We as a country don't have a well developed institutions to teach photography , also there is the issue of freedom of expression .
👨🎤- What do you think are the opportunities for Photographers in Ethiopia
🦉- Photography requires creativity, bringing new things and i think there are a lot of opportunities for photographers , they just have to learn to see their surroundings better -
👨🏿🎤- How can some one get in too Bird photography , What kind of cameras to use - who to talk too - Things to do or not to do while shooting
🦉- The first thing is passion for photography and also for birding because it requires to have a patience to be in the right moment and take the shoot . The other thing is , knowing your camera , download the manual and know your equipment - Have the right lens and such . Do your research about birds and where to find them. Any camera will do but you need to have a zoom lens , since we don't want them to go away when we approach them -
👨🎤- We will be back later on -- Enjoy more pics from #Henok's #BirdPhotography

#SundayOnAPH , forum and announcements day - share us your thoughts about the projects we aired this week so that we can make the coming weeks more suited for your needs - #ThankYou for being with us-
This weeks #PhotoContestTheme is #TimketChallange,We been receiving incredible pictures for the contest,Make sure to send @APH2017 before Tuesday evening 2:00 Lt.The contest starts Wednesday morning
Monday is here - #APHPhotographyCourse #ExposureTriangle #Aperture - We will start the course 5:00, stays tuned & #LearnSomethingNewToday -Submit ur pics for #PhotoContest #TimketChallange @APH2017
•Last week we started the course on #ExposureTriangle and we discussed about the #ISO setting - Today we will see the second setting from exposure triangle, #Aperture -
•Understanding Aperture plays a great roll in your photography StayTuned and #LearnSomethingNewToday @APHub -
•I’ve been writing a series of posts on elements that photographers need to learn in order to get out of Auto mode and learn how to manually set the exposure of their shots. I’ve largely focussed upon three elements of the ‘exposure triangle‘ – ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture. I’ve previously written about #ISO setting and today I would like to turn your attention to Aperture.
•Before I start with the explanations let me say this. If you can master aperture you put into your grasp real creative control over your camera. In my opinion – aperture is where a lot of the magic happens in photography and as we’ll see below, changes in it can mean the difference between one dimensional and multi dimensional shots.

•What is Aperture?
#Aperture controls how much light enters the camera .
•When you hit the shutter release button of your camera a hole opens up that allows your cameras image sensor to catch a glimpse of the scene you’re wanting to capture. The aperture that you set impacts the size of that hole. The larger the hole the more light that gets in – the smaller the hole the less light.
•Aperture is measured in ‘f-stops’.
•You’ll often see them referred as
f/number – for example f/2.8, f/4, f/5.6,f/8,f/22 etc. Moving from one f-stop to the next doubles or halves the size of the amount of opening in your lens (and the amount of light getting through).
•One thing that causes a lot of new photographers confusion is that large apertures (where lots of light gets through) are given f/stop smaller numbers and smaller apertures (where less light gets through) have larger f-stop numbers.
So f/2.8 is in fact a much larger aperture than f/22. It seems the wrong way around when you first hear it but you’ll get the hang of it.
e.g. Setting #Aperture to F/2.8 means ...
- Large Aperture
- Shallow Depth of field (DOP)
- Expensive lens
- Great for low light photography
e.g. Setting #Aperture to F/22 means ...
- Small Aperture
- Flat Depth of field (DOP)
- Relatively cheaper lens
