For a photographer the main thing is to learn two basic
concepts :
1. What exactly is the difference between what he is seeing
through the eye from the viewfinder and what he wants to get in his
photograph.
2. Secondly, how he adjusts his camera and viewfinder to actually
what he wants.

Multiple Exposure
India Gate |
In this shoot the important thing is to adjust your eye
with the viewfinder, and drawing hypothetical lines to get the exactly what you
want.
This is a simple technique called multi exposure, used
here effectively to get three shots of India gate in one negative (no digital
work is done on this).
First of all, see through the viewfinder and keeping
India gate 1st shot in middle, keeping enough space for the both left and right
shoots.
Important thing to remember here is to see the base line that exactly
how much space you have left at the bottom of the viewfinder so that you keep
your second and third shoots at the same place otherwise the base of all three
will be different and it will not look good.
Now go towards your left and place camera at a sufficient
distance from first position and compose your shoot so that you maintain some
gap in the frame where you have taken your first shoot, which requires a lot of
concentration and caution. Here you can do things, either changes your focal
length so that the monuments comes in equal size to that of the middle one or
change the focal length if you want it smaller or greater than the first,
accordingly.
Similarly go ahead with the right one.
You can create millions of new shots even much better
than this by this technique; it’s just a matter of practice and
practice.
So, go ahead and SHOOT !!!
