How to take smoke photography in simple way?

Ever wondered how photographs of smoke are taken?
It seems that its too hard to get smoke photo,but its not too hard as you think.Even u don't need some high technology and expensive flashed and trigger.
I ll tell u how to get amazing smoke photos using minimal instrument.
Materials needed:

• Camera(Dslr preferably)

I used a CANON 1100D(55-250mm lens)

• Incense sticks
• flash light(mobile flash light)

HOW?

1. Take incense stick and light it and wait for some time to get smoke 
2. Perform this method in complete dark room
3. switch on the flash light and hold it below with a help of some one.
4. first focus the camera on the smoke,do it manually if there is option,since focusing will be tough.
5. The inbuilt flash of camera must be off,press the shutter.
6. take as many photos as possible from different direction.
7. Edit the photos using photoshop for color variants.

BEST CAMERAS TO BUY AT YEAR END

The problem with buying a digital camera is not only that there are hundreds of models for sale at any given point in time, but you also need to figure out which type of camera is right for you. The good news is that we review lots of cameras—and these 10 are among the best we've tested lately.

Do you want a small camera that requires minimal effort, but takes great pictures? A pocket point-and-shoot is probably your best bet. Need to get close to the action without carrying a huge camera with a big lens? A compact superzoom model is likely for you. Or do you want a lightning-fast shooter that lets you swap out lenses and play with settings? 

Then you want a D-SLR or a compact interchangeable-lens camera. Plan on shooting on 

Remember, though, the digital camera market is a robust one; manufacturers release new products throughout the year, and we're continually testing and reviewing cameras—and updating this list.

how to take butterfly photography?(DSLR tips)

Tips and tricks

1. Use a tripod, but keep the head loose

Butterflies move quickly from flower to flower, so you won’t have time to lock in your tripod. But, you can still use it for some stability by keeping the head loose (so you can quickly move the camera).

2. Wait for colder weather

Butterflies need heat from the sun to use their wings, so they like to take it easy when it’s colder out (early morning or late afternoon). With colder weather, you’ll be able to approach them more easily.

3. Position your camera’s sensor so it’s parallel to the butterfly’s wings

You only get one geometrical plane of complete sharpness, so you want to put as much of your subject in this plane as possible. With butterflies, you’ll want their body and wings tack sharp, so make sure your camera’s sensor is parallel to them.

4. Wait until the butterfly is frontlit by the sun

Side lighting will usually result in a harsh shadow across the butterfly’s wings, and backlighting is always difficult because of flares. So, wait until the butterfly moves to a position where it’s frontlit by the sun.

5. Use a fast shutter

When you’re photographing butterflies, three things are almost always moving: the camera, the butterfly, and the flower it’s perched on. To help freeze the action and increase your chances of getting a sharp photo, use a fast shutter by increasing your ISO to 400.

6. Shoot in JPEG mode (sometimes)

If you’re having a hard time with the wind and a constantly moving butterfly, you may want to consider shooting in JPEG instead of RAW. This will allow you to snap a lot more shots in a burst, increasing your chances of getting a sharp photo (when everything stood still for a microsecond).

7. Wait for butterflies (patiently), don’t chase them

If the butterflies seem extra sensitive when you’re trying to approach them, then try to just wait patiently at one flower instead. Although butterflies will usually get scared if you approach them, they’ll usually land on flowers right next to you if you’re already sitting there. Be patient though: it might be 15-20 minutes before a butterfly shows up.

8. Be careful not to cast a shadow on the butterfly

Butterflies love the sun, so if you cast a shadow on them, they’ll usually fly away. Remember this (source[digital-photography-school.com)as you’re approaching them.
