    These images are great, Toma! I have noticed that virtually all great kid photographers get down at eye level with children. Do you just do landscapes? You’d be a really good child photographer.

      @BonciuToma  Před 5 lety

    Felicitariii si mersi pentru video Tom! Azi nepotica implineste 2 anisori iar acest video m-a ajutat sa ma relaxez inainte de shoot! De curiozitate doar, sunt nou in fotografie si ma intreb de ce nu ai folosit apertura mai mica? Ai mers dinadins pt mai putin bokeh sau nu iti oferea focus suficient pentru shoot-ul dorit? Mersi in avans! Keep it up mate! 🤗

    • @BonciuToma
      @BonciuToma  Před 10 měsíci

    Hi,
    Nice shots! Are you using AF-S or AF-C for this type of photography? When you have to put your subject at the side like the 4:04, are you use focus and recompose with the center focus point or you chose different af point at the sides?
