win discuss some Of those
that contribute most to dis
appointments Of the unwary
beginner.
Be sure to hold the camera
steady when making the ex-
posure. The shutter speed Of
most box cameras is 1/50th
Of q second and will stop

not keep the picture from
having q multiple image II
the camera is jiggled by the
photographer.
Another cause for fuzzy
snapshots is improper use
of the shutter release.
Squeeze the shutter release
gently - jabbing Jars the
camera.
For crisp. snappy pictures,
shoot when there is enough
sunlight to cast shadows. An
overhead sun casts unkind
shadows on the faces Of
people and should be avoided.
Rather do your picture tax
ing in midmorning or after
noon and have the sunlight
striking the subject from one
side. An even simpler light
ing. though less effective, is
where the light comes from
over your shoulder and
strikes the subject directly
from the front.
Fill the finder frame with
the subject. Lots of unneces-
sary space around the SUBJ
ject lessons the appeal Of
the subject and is a waste of
film space. So get as close to
the subject as possible with
out cutting of any important
part of the picture. Some
simple cameras can be used
as close as 31z feet. Others
have q minimum Of 5 feet.
Keep backgrounds simple.
Good backgrounds for pic

If you are about to take
your first plunge" into pho
Biography don't discount the
simple, workaday box CAM
era. As o beginner. you viii
probably be able to take bet
ter pictures with q box
camera than you would If
someone handed you the
most expensive camera on
the market. o
Some people have the mis-
taken idea that because q box
camera is inexpensive it
won't produce excellent snap
shots. This is far from the
truth and, as q matter Of
fact. there are probably more
good pictures made with this
type of camera than with
those that cost much more.
One reason for this, Of
course. is that more Of these
cameras are bought and used
than any other kind. But,
more important. is the fact
that the box camera is ex-
tremely simple to operate
and, in the hands of a good
photographer, will make bet
ter pictures than a high
priced job in the hands Of
someone who doesn't know
how to use it. Often the be-
ginner is impressed with the
many gadgets, knobs. charts,
etc., of the higher costing
cameras. buys one and then
becomes discouraged right at
the start because the snap
shots do not turn out to be
perfect each time the shutter
clicks.
The best way to learn
photography is with the
simplest tools, and a simple
camera should head the list.
Once you have your camera
you should consider some Of
the pitfalls that should be
avoided in photography. We
