The Perfect Image:Natural subjects often benefit from natural lighting. The perfect outdoor environment is brightly lit but also lightly overcast to minimize shadows. Of course Mother Nature is not always that cooperative, so photographers need to be prepared with artificial lighting. Direct flash is typically too bright, so flashes need to be diffused or reflected to give less harsh lighting. Long exposure times in dimmer lighting are possible if the camera and subject are both very still.
Automatic focus may be fine for far away shots but isn't precise enough for close up photography. Manual focus allows fine changes that can turn a mediocre image into a breathtakingly sharp picture. Manual focus can be frustrating at first but with time allows photographers to hit that sweet spot quickly and easily.
