Self Portrait Tutorial!!

One of my May resolution was to do three tutorials. Here is my first of the three.

Set up:

I am a very amateur photographer (who just started in February 2011) and I'm learning so many things with my Nikon D3100. One of the things that I really like doing are self portraits. In one of my late night researches, I found a fellow photographer name SnapChick who did self portraits and had sent me a link to a program to download to have my camera capture pictures at an interval. The program worked great with my PC but it didn't work with my Mac. I did more research and found - Icarus Camera Control, and must I say - I LOVE THIS PROGRAM to bits!!!

Here is my first tutorial on how I use Icarus Camera:

Here is a teaser from my self portrait shoot earlier today. Visit my photoblog for more!

Here are the links to the programs to download. They are completely FREE and do NOT require a sign up.

• http://sourceforge.net/projects/camctl/ (this is Icarus Camera Control I use)

Just in case the above program doesn't work, here are the other two that I've used -

• http://www.sofortbildapp.com/ (this works for Mac but didn't recognize my camera)
• http://www.diyphotobits.com/ (this worked great with my PC)

If you liked this and found it helpful, let me know!! Questions? Holler at your girl!

Share it, like it, retweet it! 

Thanks for visiting!

Laters!
