trying out my digital cam

well at least i know how to transfer them.

ehh...this is Mary, my baby female blood at 18"

the pic's blurry so i gotta fina a way to get it to focus up close.any ideas? my cam is an Olympus FE-115. Has 5.0 megapixels if that helps...

have you tried zooming out or in to try and fix it?

yeah i did but the bluriness didnt get any better.it's like i have to take the pic from far away to get a good clear pic but then the snake would be too small to see.

do you have a program on your computer that allows you to digitally zoom in to the picture after you upload it? then you can just take a far away picture and zoom in to it after you load it. if i was there it would be much easier to help lol ;)

Have you tried the macro settings on the camera?

try taking the picture against a solid colored background that is not too far behind the subject. From the picture you posted, it looks like the camera is auto-focusing on the background (something you want to avoid).

lol yeah i just read that on the manual and it worked!! now i just gotta transfer them yadda yadda and just gime a few mins and i'll post a new pic.

yeah much better :D

Try setting the snake on something like a backdrop or even the floor.......then you can focus on using your camera correctly, not holding the snake!

Either way, nice blood!

yeah i'll get more creative later on.my cam was running out of batteries so i had to hurry up and take a quick pic.

Ohhh pretty you know I have the same problem with my camera how did you change that I dont have the manual with me right now but I do have the camera

i changed the macro settings.normally the cam is set to take pics of things that are far away.i set it so that it takes pics of things that are up close.

Yeah but how would I do that where on the camera is the selection menu for that type of thing

im not sure what your cam looks like.mine has 4 arrows next to where the screen is.the one that points "right" has a flower design meaning use that option for taking close-up pics of things like flowers.

this is what my cam looks like.the arrow pointing to the right has that flower desing i was telling you about.took this with my webcam.

hes beautifull!

Another thing you can do is step back and take the picture from a distance, a few feet maybe.

Using a program like Photoshop, you can then just crop out the snake, instead of just resizing the whole picture. But it seems you're starting to get a handle on the macro feature.

Practice makes perfect. Keep shoting pics, you'll get the hang of it. :D
