AhN DhAtshooAAAn AhetAeAtAeh
Your beach pictures can be
a success this year-sun or no
sun-if you learn to manipu-
late your subject as well as the
iris diaphragm and shutter of
your camera.
The superabundance of sun
and attending glare that re-
suits from the strong rays re-
flecting from water and white
sand is a stumper for many
beginners and even some of
the older hands at photog-
raphy.,
If ordinary shooting techni-
ques are used, one or a COM
bination of unfortunate things
can happen to beach shots.
Snapshots made from about
10 am. to- 4 pm. will usually
have little detail in highligE:s
or shadows unless certain pre-
cautions are taken.
The sun, in addition to pro-
viding its usual supply of light
assuming it's a cloudless day.,
will also cause considerable
glare as it is reflected from
nearby water and sand. Fortu-
nately the camera is provided
with a couple of excellent
brakes in the form of the
shutter and diaphragm. Used
singly or in combination these
controls can be used to regu-
late the amount of light to
reach the film. So far SO good.
Excessive Contrasts
But-and this is big but
neither will help beyond pro-
viding a good exposure) with
the excessive contrasts that
are caused by all the glare en-
countered on sandy beaches.
To beat this you must take adj
vantage of the reflected light
to tone down the harshness of
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS contrasts.
You simply do it the way
the professionals do it. If a
subject is posed on the beach
in the usual snapshot pose,
facing the sun from a stand
ing position. the concentrated
glare will cause squirting and
unnatural facial contortions
that will render the person al
most unacceptable. With the
subject standing with back to
the sun the eyes will be so
Swallowed as to be burned out
IN the print. Strong sun strik-
ing from the side throws a
black shadow from the nose
across the face and leaves one
eye in shadow and the other
squirting.
ASChCCtCu LlEHt NSeQ
With a high sun, then the
subject should be seated on the
sand with the sun out of the
eyes. In this way the light
rejecting from the sand will
act as fill-in to erase the con-
trasting shadows that other
wise would spoil the picture.
A wide-brimmed beach hat
can also be used if the subject
is seated, since the reflected
light will prevent the hat from
casting an impenetrable sha-
dow across the face.
Homemade reflectorS can
also be used to compensate for
contrasty lighting conditions.
You can make an excellent re-
Hector by covering a sheet of
plywood with aluminium foil or
paint, To make a large size re-
Hector practical it should be in
two pieces that are hinged at
the middle for portability. A
white beach towel or white
sheet can also be used handily
for this purpose.
Exposure Meter Helpful
1t goes without saying that
an exposure meter is a must
at the seaside. Making expos
ure guesSes under unfamiliar
lighting conditions is simply
asking for trouble whereas the
exposure meter will render
yeoman service in this impor-
tant area of exposure.

lures at the beach hou,avar

These coins looked some-
what different from other con-
temporary issues. The latter
were bullet-shaped, stout
coins. The early Corinthian
staters were of thinner spread
fabric.
A little after Peistratus
started to issue his improved
version of the double faced
Athenian tetradrachms the
Corinthian city fathers felt
impelled to m axe similar
changes in their own currency.
Toward the end of the 9th
century B. C. they abandoned
the spread, fat fabric and
struck smaller but thicker
staters.
The winged horse remained
on the diverse with the letter
@. for Quorinthos, the ancient
spelling Of the city's name. On
the reverse is a charming little
archaic head of the goddess
Athena. They could not chose
any other Athena than their
Athenian rivals, but they took
care to dress her differently in
a Corinthian-style helmet. On
smaller change the head of
Aphrodite tVenuS) appears.
These coins continued to be
struck in great numbers until

on a gulf facing west. the bulk
of her trade moved in that
direction and finds of her
staters are most frequent in

Those who mourned Gastall
saw an unhappy parallel between
him and Harry Agganis-the ath-
letic hero of Lynn, another
Massachusetts, seaside city.
Agganis preceded Gastall as
Boston University's quarterback,
went on to join the Red Sox,
and died in the summer of 1855.
From William Harridge, Am
erican League president, and all
the teams in the league came
floral tributes.
His closest relatives - his
young wife. the former Rose
mary Sweeney, mother of their
15-months-old baby, and his
parents. Thomas E. and Conceta
(SiScento) Gastall were together
at the graveside.
