Awareness of the outside world. “Faces and Fabrics Everywhere! For me, making quilts is a creative outlet. Visit a quilt retreat with the Evening Star Quilt Guild, via my collection of photographs from our 2023 ‘Out of This World’ Retreat, held at the Alabama 4-H Conference Center, Columbiana, AL, Aug. 3-6.” Facebook: Meg McKinney 7 Aug 2023. Meg always does a great job with ‘in the moment’ photos. Not sure if you need to log in to see. Sometimes I can see a FB page without doing so. It varies.

Creek. f/11.0, 1/125 sec., 105.0 mm, ISO 400, manual
The meta picture was hard to get this time. The first attempt of the two above has a lovely shot of the big camera, obeying the rule of thirds no less, with the subject scenically fuzzy in the background. Alas, there is a partial reflection on the display screen superimposed over the thumbnail image. BTW, not the worst example of reflection. I didn’t post the one where the reflection was so strong that you can read what my shirt says, and don’t see green at all. The next one, above, has the creek in focus and no reflection on the display image. I remember checking for that. Alas, the target camera is not in focus.
Things I need to keep in mind when I take the Android photo of the Nikon.
1) Is the Nikon in focus?
2) Is the photo shoot subject in focus? This is easier when the the Nikon is close to the subject. Actually, I have no control over this. Make sure phone knows to focus on the Nikon and let it do what it will with the background.
3) Check for reflection on the Nikon screen. Be aware that this is hard on a sunny day.
Works best if I can rest the Nikon on something and therefore not have to position, focus, and operate the Android with one hand.
Went somewhere. Did something. Check.
Previous [Quarry], with better examples of meta pix.
Onwards!
