We Are Back

We got back last night about midnight. Overall a great trip! PA is so much different than LA, CA. good to be home. I'll post photos soon, need to upload them to the computer. Never got hooked up to the internet out there. Around here wifi is free in hotels our hotel was $13.00 a day extra fee. Breanne tried at Starbucks too, needed a password, so we assumed you needed to sign up or something and we just didn't have time for. I'm not sure how I will group stuff when I get to posting photos, I'l probably start with parade, game, Hollywood, Santa Monica, Malibu and other randam stuff. Even though Penn State did not win we had a lot of fans in California, everywhere we went people would say good luck, hope you win, even after the game people were glad Penn State never gave up and how the fans kept cheering them on when we knew we were going to lose. We are Penn State Proud.

WELCOME

Hello, glad you could find the time to visit! The Clicks Of My Shutter welcomes you to a photo journal of things happening around me, places I go, sometime just to take photos. I am an amature photographer who likes taking photos more than people like looking at them!! Most of the photos can be viewed larger, I keep them pretty small for easier uploading. Remember you can look at older posts by clicking the older posts link at the end of the page. All photography is copyrighted automatically but I don't mind if you use my photos for yourself, all I ask is if you use them on another website give credit where credit is due. If you are thinking of family or other photos, e-mail me at debapaka@aol.com Thanks for visiting!

~ What To Wear ~

I found this on the Web and thought it was usefull! Photographers shooting a traditional family portrait will suggest that members wear a uniform color that the entire clan feels comfortable in. The safest colors are solid muted tones that don't distract from a person's face. Suggested color "dos" include: •Brown •Blue •Rust •Burgundy •Mocha •Hunter green •Gold Conversely, there are a number of colors that you shouldn't sport on family picture day. Some color "don'ts" include: •Purple •All neon or fluorescent colors •Bright red •Bright green •Gray In addition, individuals with fair skin should avoid wearing flesh-tones, such as: •Beige •Tan •Peach •Pink •Bright white •Yellow •Rose •Apricot Black is a controversial color in the world of family portraits. Some photographers recommend wearing black during formal shoots, though most pro shooters tell their clients to avoid wearing black in family portraits because the color may cause lighting issues. Extreme contrasts are to be avoided at all costs during photo shoots, especially when multiple subjects are involved. You're better off sticking with neutral colors that will accentuate your natural features.
