A camera can stall the entire world. It captures the world as we see it and also the world beyond it. I feel photography as a painting with colors and light. Weddings are the most beautiful happenings on earth and wedding photography is the photography to showcase the activities during weddings (Pre and Post wedding).Weddings are a grand affair and the only sweet memories that remain with us for the rest of our lives. The wedding pictures should come out as amazing as the wedding happens. Wedding photography has different shades, as weddings are always colorful and filled with emotions. Weddings are not about emotions and sentiments, a lot of fun and frolic play an important role in brushing the canvas.According to history, the concept of wedding photography came into existence after the Second World War. Earlier, photography was a bulky task where they generally used films, negatives and later came the analog cameras and now we see professional photographers using digital SLR’s.Analog cameras provided only low quality photographs but with SLR’s we have high quality pictures and can also manipulate ambient light which is always a challenge for a photographer.We have different approaches to wedding photography, but mostly we see Traditional, Photojournalistic and Contemporary wedding photography.Traditional photography as the name suggests provides traditionally posed pictures taken on the Big Day and Photojournalistic photography comes from editing and adding up extra technical options to the wedding pictures. We have many software options for photography editing and enhancing the pictures. Mostly, we see photographers blending these styles. Contemporary/fashion-based Photography is complete poles apart to traditional photography where the photographer takes the ambience and the plot from the day. Contemporary photographers are professionals who provide indoor and outdoor photography and also photojournalistic features required to enhance the photographs.The wedding photography market is unorganized and welcoming many styles, ideas and experts. With the latest technology now in hand, people randomly get into wedding photography without prior experience. It is important that one has a lot of patience and interest as it is back-breaking work and one has to be attentive throughout the ceremony for long hours and one should be able to predict and capture emotions. People aspiring to become wedding photographers can get professional training from reputed institutes. There is always a good demand for wedding Photographers and hence what is important is to maintain exceptional quality in work.
Becoming Self Employed and the Road Ahead
The pathway that leads to self employment can have its ups and it can also have its downs. There tends to be times you love your “job” and other times you detest it. Using the term ‘job’ lightly, by no stretch of the imagination is it just a job, and it can not exactly be called a career path either, You can be confident in calling it a lifestyle or even a way of life. The thing that you will welcome about being in the ‘self employed’ bracket are the ups, downs, sideways and topsy turvy twists that come with it. So, let us have a look at some of these twists in the road, the ups and downs of the roller coaster ride.As soon as you go self employed there will be immediate changes that you will need to purposely adjust to, and quite quickly as well. You will notice that you will not have a manager or a peer to look at what your output is every day. Fantastic you are thinking, BUT this can be good and it can just as well be bad.Keeping Yourself On The TracksYou will now be solely responsible to keep yourself on track and productive. When riding on a roller coaster, there is always a set of rules. Obeying them will ensure your safety and well being. Disobeying will result in harm to your self or being kicked out of the park. Abiding by the rules, in this case, setting your goals out, planning properly, controlling things and being productive, will mean that you will have a fair chance of being successful. If you are unprofessional about it all and do not follow the rules you will put everything in jeopardy when you do not have to. So – think you can take all the bumps and bruises that the self employment roller coaster has to offer then? The only person that can keep you on the track is yourself.The Good Times Are GoodThe benefits to be had though are worth having. You future is in your own safe hands and no ones other than your own. You own the company, nobody else and every single amount of revenue you generate is for you. If you show some financial understanding and monetary management you can obtain early financial freedom. No more worrying about requesting off days, calling off sick, or whether you have a job or not by the end of the week. When your friends are concerned about their jobs and talking about it all the time you can lounge back and feel good about the fact that you are self employed.A Positive Attitude Does Go A Long WayWhen you get on the roller coaster at the fun fair you can be 100% certain about one thing. You may be roughed up a bit from the ups, downs, twists, and turns, but you will love the ride none the less. You must adopt this same attitude when you decide to go self employed. With out it you might as well keep the job that you are currently working at and save yourself the wasted time and effort. Are you going to let someone else lay down the tracks to your roller coaster or are you going to do it yourself?
Finding Automotive Wiring Diagrams
As an owner of a car, I find myself becoming educated on the subject of automotive wiring. Since I am just about the last person who should be playing with anything that has electrical current running through it, I was hesitant to attempt to tackle the issue of automotive wiring.However my vehicle decided otherwise when it started to randomly select electrical systems that it wanted to me tamper with. When the electric seat belts started to slide back and forth without reason as I drove down the highway, I decided I better figure out how to tamper with the electric systems, considering the exuberant rate of automotive repair.I found myself with a decision to either, break down and spend $100 an hour for a so-called expert to look at it and try to repair it, or I could learn how the electrical system of my car worked. Considering my level of ignorance I probably was going to try to conquer the impossible. After all the only thing I knew about electrical systems is that AC/DC was a rock band and that dummies and wiring usually did not get along.However despite my reluctance, I set out to learn what I could about automotive wiring. I quickly learned that there is a huge supply of information available on the subject of automotive wiring. A quick search on Google provided me with an array of information. There are many different levels of sites offering information.Some sites provided a basic overview of the average electrical system of most cars. A company named Long Island Customs offered some great basic information. They stated that their information was simply for a basic understanding and not for a detailed explanation of particular models. However they actually provide some thorough information on basic systems such as AC and lighting. They also provide some great trouble shooting information.Another site for general information on electrical systems is TBud.com. This educational website offered general programs on electrical systems in their integrated publishing section.AllDetailDIY.com considers itself the leading source of professional diagnostic information. They offer full diagnostic flow charts of automotive electrical systems. Their charts offer both system and component perspectives.I found a great site for individual systems that covered all American made cars from 1985 to 2009.Wiringdiagram.com breaks it down by system, such as headlights, computer data lines and AC systems. Their individualized charts start at $5.99. They also offer information on 1960-1984 models starting at $6.99. They print the information into an Adobe PDF document and offer rushed service guaranteed to provide you with the diagrams for your particular car in less than 24 hours.Bulldog.com offers a basic explanation of electrical information in an MS Word document; however they do not supply charts or schematics.Two other sites that I found to offer great information were Freeauto.com and 12voltresource.com. Freeauto.com provides complete color diagnostics for most makes and models. What I found interesting(?) is freeauto will provide you these color automotive electrical charts and all the other information on their informative website for $11.99. They also assist you with basic electrical theory, electrical harnesses and test equipment.12voltresource.com offers a CD-ROM that contains wiring systems for every car from 1979 to 2009, for only $17.98. They also offer CD-ROMs and instant downloads for specific models of cars. They only charge $14.98 for this information.I also decided to look around to see if I could find manufacturers’ manuals that offer automotive electrical diagrams for particular makes and models. What I found was that Haynes Auto Repair Manuals offer a repair manual for just about every major make and model of car. These thorough repair manuals explain every system on particular models in an easy to understand format. I found that these manuals offer electrical charts for their models. I found Haynes manuals available at several sources including their own website for $24.95 and Barnes and Nobles for $22.95 with a membership. The best deal I found on these manuals was Books-A-Million, who offers most Haynes manuals for only $16.45.So whether you are like me and you don’t know the first thing about automotive electrical systems or even if you are educated in electrical systems you will find these sources to be of great help. If you still desire additional information you may want to contact your local car dealer or mechanic.
