It is very important that you can captured the best moment in photography, you need to sensitive about the environment and react very fast. The best moment might only last few seconds, and if you missed it, it means you missed, it will not appear again. So you need to train yourself to always alert and see things that people didn't, that's a skill that a good photographer need to be equipped, will not be an easy to get this, you need to figure a way to train yourself till you able to do that. Below photo was an example that I took yesterday during my Putrajaya Wet Land's day out.


Father's Day Out, a name given to this photograph


A father carried her daughter with a bicycle and his son followed him just behind few feet. I was at least 20 feets away from that scene but I aware this will be a great scene that I must captured.



First, I captured the father bicycle to ensure my setting was correct. Luckily it turn out in the correct setting mode.



Second I try to snap another one again, which is a bit fast this time, so I only have one more chance.



Wala, this is the final snap I managed to get, which both of the bicycles were captured. So next thing to do was touching it up, crop it to eliminate the space and make the main objects bigger.


The photo lacking some feel, so do some graphic filter on it.



Finally, this more looked like what's I want it to be.

So, do try to practice to capture the short moments that always happens around us (but most of us not aware during beginner stage), when you did this more frequent, automatically, you will react like me when you spot it.
