lol she would love that comment, she thinks i am doing homework right
now.

Yeah i know the side on ones are a little irksome but she is like right
into photography and all that awards winning stuff and apartly it is
more appealing to be taken like that. She got right into it, the
photo's are good but they dont actually show much unicycling...

Camera angles.

What you usually want is to make the thing that you're dong look
eXXXtreme (TO THE MAAAAAAAX)

The easiest way to get this effect is to take the shot from really
low.

Example.

Terribly sketchy no footer from a fairly high angle. Looks pretty bad,
correct?
[image:

As opposed to this one, which looks pretty freakin' sweet. Taken from
really low, to make it look eXXXtreme (TO THE MAAAAX!!) - heh.. check
the facial expression =D

[image:
http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o33/edsbelly/nofooter017toupload.jpg]

And some more..

High angle, you can see that I only had this tiny little block around.

[image:
http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o33/edsbelly/nofooter021toupload.jpg]

This one looks like I'm standing on a big stump.

[image:
http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o33/edsbelly/nofooter022toupload.jpg]

Yes. Basically, think about the trick from the camera's point of view.
From the right angle you can make a little 3 set look much bigger than
it is.

I have no doubts that your girlfriend is a good photographer, just tell
her what to do =D

Hope this helped, because you have no idea how hard it is to take
photos of yourself while you're unicycling.

There are sooooo may ways to take nice looking photos. I'd say that
-lighting- is really the key to anything. Try to take photos with the
sun at the photographers back so the subject is well lit. If it's a
rainy day, generally you're not going to get great pictures because the
camera must either a)reduce quality to keep a higher shutter speed or
b)decrease the shutter speed which makes things blurry. Basically, if
the camera has manual settings, try using those. If it doesn't and it
has presets like aperture priority (usually Av) or shutter speed
priority (Tv), try using shutter speed to get less blurred shots.
Also, -action- is really important ('example - can be a crash 🙂'
(http://tinyurl.com/yf479s) 'example 2' (http://tinyurl.com/ym6lb3)).
Sometimes shots of still standing and before you're about to make a
move/drop can come out nice, but generally shots of you making the
action will turn out more interesting. This takes time and skill and
knowing your camera well to time the shot for exactly when you want
it.

I'm by no means a great photographer, but check out my gallery to see
some more examples of what I'm talking about.

Color is also pretty important... ('example'
(http://tinyurl.com/y3ktsf))

Angle is also important. Basically (as with video), try -not- to shoot
from head height. If you're on a hill or something, sometimes shooting
from head height is the best, but generally try to change it up.
('example' (http://tinyurl.com/yx36bb) - I was laying on the ground for
this one).

It's common at first to only get a few good photos out of a bunch. The
longer you do it, the more decent shots you get.

(sorry, my website is slow... soon to be www.nohillnothrill.com)

To sum things up, try to include the following....
1) fast shutter speed (at least 1/250 if not 1/300) - if camera is
adjustable
2) lighting
3) color
4) angle
5) low aperture (wide open) to create background blurriness - if
adjustable
6) action
