Aside from that going to beach is a fantastic place also for family time and for friends to have a fun and to relax. Hope this tips will help you in away.

Taking Photos At The Beach

by David Peterson

* When taking photos of sandcastles, drop down to the same level as the sandcastle and ensure your family is at the same level

* The summer sun will usually be very bright and harsh. The best light will usually be in the late afternoon or early morning.

* Take your telephoto lens if you have one. Pictures of surfers work really well in closeup.

* Watch for beach animals such as crabs and photograph them using your Macro function.

* Try standing in the water, keeping your camera close to the water and shooting towards the beach for an unusual shot.

* Keep the flash on. This will “fill in” the shadows on their faces (particularly if your subjects are wearing hats)

* Be careful with your camera, as sand and salt water are very harmful substances to get inside your camera!
