The Blair Witch Photography: A Tutorial



A short tutorial for those who wonder what the effect of photographing your items outdoors using the "close up" function on your camera will have:

The top photo is taken with the "close up" function on.  Notice the creepiness.

The bottom photo is taken without the "close up" function.  Notice the lovely new leaf buds popping out of the branch.

In conclusion, if you'd like creeped out photos or if you are trying to get the background noise of your shot to quiet down a little, use the "close up" function.  If you want some background noise, don't use it.

This has been a public service announcement from Seat Of My Pants.  Thank you for reading it.

PS: I have never seen more of Blair Witch than they showed on network TV commercials. I'll keep it that way, thanks. :)
