im very grateful for the lessons in photography i was taught in stop motion class because just now they made it possible to photograph the stars with my phone in spite of the camera usually not detecting the light of stars because theyre so dim,,,, enjoy these shiny motherfuckers
ok so if everythings normal, your phone camera should have a manual mode (sometimes called pro mode). in it, change the settings of the shutter lag to 20 seconds, then put the phone down on some stable, plane surface and press the photo button (usually when using your camera, the volume buttons can be used as photo button) and let the phone still for the whole 20 seconds.
(basically the problem with most cameras is that they dont have a very good light sensitivity in the dark, however that doesnt mean they cant detect it at all. the longer the shutter is open, the more light your camera takes in and the more burnt/light your pic will be, so in (literally) dark situations, make the shutter lag longer to get all that light you need! also i said 20 seconds but really you can make it shorter or longer depending on what kinda stuff you want for your stars)
Yes this!
Additionally, adjust your ISO to the highest number (mimics the film used for very low light and low speed images)
And set your shutter speed to the longest time possible (on my phone it’s 10 seconds).
Leave your focus settings on Auto, and if your phone camera has a timer option, turn that on (five seconds is generally enough).
Plan your shot first, then find a place to set your phone down so you can get the image you want. The less light pollution, the better; you’ll pick up FAR more stars in your picture.
Once you know what you want to shoot, tap your screen to “focus” it, then hit the button to take the picture, set your phone down, and back away from the “tripod”. Don’t touch your phone for a good 15 seconds, just to be sure.
You will not be disappointed in the results, let me assure you.
Not even a little bit.
THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING I’VE EVER LEARNED
This is so heckin cool oh gosh. Er, question??? Can you do this to get clear pictures of the moon too??

if you reverse these options, you can get really good photos of lights too! i used them on my candycorn lights i got for my room! i had to adjust the focus for the last two photos, but it still turned out really well!

the entire time i spent watching this movie i was just waiting for charlotte to turn into a traitorous bitch, because that is what the media has told me for my entire life that her character archetype is supposed to do
kudos to disney for proving me wrong
to-makingitcount
Let me tell you how great Lottie is. 1. She has EVERYTHING. This girl can literally have anything she wants and instead of hanging out with girls of her social class she’s friends with a poor girl. 2. Not only is she below her social class but she is African American which back in the twenties was COMPLETELY frowned upon. Lottie is risking social status to be friends with Tia. 3. When Tia and Naveen end up together in the end, Lottie doesn’t throw a fit or act upset, she is genuinely happy that Tiana has found true love even though that’s all Lottie has ever wanted her whole life. Something that her daddy can’t buy for her. 4. She’s true to herself and doesn’t let others judge her just because of how much money she has and she has a wonderful friend like Tiana that loves her for that. Lottie is wonderful and is highly underrated.
If Tiana had let her, Charlotte would have bought the restaurant for Tiana and stocked it with the most expensive everything and had a grand ball for the opening.
#Charlotte was a ride or die chick to the end#like she’s the defination of sugar and sweetness as a person#like Tiana could ask her for anything and Charlotte would do it no questions or conditions required

Remember that scene when Charlotte was hanging out with the prince until she came across Tiana who had fallen into her beignet table and gotten desserts all over her dress after being rejected by the racist assholes who denied her restaurant, and Charlotte immediately dropped everything to get Tiana cleaned up and gave her one of her own dresses. The entire night she’d been going nuts because all she wanted was to be with the prince but her friend was in trouble so she put that shit on hold no questions asked. Charlotte was a real one.

Charlotte was also a girl who wasn’t afraid to say exactly what was on her mind, something that was actually frowned upon back in the 20’s. Like that guy that kept asking her to dance. Instead of blushing, sputtering, or running away, she looks him in the eye and says: “Trent, when a woman says ‘later’ she really means ‘not ever’.” Probably one of the best lines in the movie, and showing kids around the world that they are allowed to say “No” to unwelcome advances.
is everyone who reblogged this okay?
no
personality test
what do u first think when u see this shape
Writing a story is so much harder than drawing it honestly I don’t know how authors do it
What do you mean you have to describe what your characters look like with WORDS. Can’t they just… figure that out? Why do I have to write an entire sentence if I want my characters to do anything?? How does that make any sense? I’d draw a thousand backgrounds over having to spend time writing a goddamn paragraph to set the scene smh
That’s funny because as an aspiring author I feel the opposite way. Words are like bricks, you just keep stacking them methodically, it’s easy but sometimes tedious.
What do you mean artists can just SHOW things? Like… you see it in your head and manage to somehow translate that image onto paper? You can just… get across what you want people to see without spending an hour trying to pick out the right words?? What is this witchcraft??
To me, it just seems more efficient than arranging words in such a way as to make people vividly hallucinate an approximation of your mindscape. AND YET.
they needed to be dumb and run away from things more
