Pets 1

Taking photos of pets can be very challenging. Sometimes they just refuse to 'cooperate' no matter how you try to get their attention. Or, they are too hyper active and the photos will probably end up blur.

I like to take photos of my dog when he is in a relaxed mood, ie lazing around the house. I usually do not use flash as I do not want to startle him. I also try to zoom in more on him as this helps to reduce the Depth of Field ie subject becomes sharp and background is blur.

Last but not the least, shoot from eye level!! It really makes a difference. I lay down flat on the floor just to take the following pictures of Boi. And I am pleased with the results.


Settings : f5.6, 1/60, ISO3200, WB @ Auto, 43MM
