Kelly (aka Mugsbigsis) is such a talented photographer with a beautiful home! I loved having her in Capturing Your Holidays. Don't you love how she made her tree come alive?
Want to know how?
A tripod is helpful to get a smooth zoom. A wide lens is helpful for this technique.
- Set your camera to Aperture Priority(AV or A).*
- Set your Aperture to f/20.
- Set your ISO to 100
- Secure your camera to a tripod.
- Place your hand on the zoom ring of your lens.
- Press the shutter button.
- Slowly turn your zoom ring.
- Check your results, try zooming faster and slower. In to out and out to in.

That is really pretty! I will have to try that. Merry Christmas Katrina!
Thank you for this tip. I just tried it and it turned out wonderfully well. What a different way to photograph your tree. I did have to lower my apeture a little more, but it was fun to play.
Merry Christmas.
Thanks, Thanks, Thanks. I did it and posted the photo on DD. Love all the "free" lessons you give us on your blog. Gail (aka Standifg)
