Number One Pictures is my photo hobby site. I will attempt to make it interesting. I hope that you will enjoy your visit.

Many of you who arrived by search engine are looking for pictures of the number one. I have not yet gotten around to making a gallery of numbers, but it is on my list of things to do. I do have many pictures on display and I invite you to look around while you are here.

I am adding some news feeds for camera news and reviews. There are several feeds available in the News and Reviews section. Below is a sample feed.

Can you take an everyday object and turn it into art?

Vanishing point
Sun, 31 Jan 2010 07:25:19 +0000 -

I love the simpleness of this photo and yet, because it makes strong use of texture and composition, it is so powerful. The use of vanishing point and depth make the photo.

Many of the vanishing point photos on Flickr use wide angle lenses but not all. Enjoy some of these shots and then try your own!

Self portrait with camera

These photos seem easy to take but it takes skill to capture the real you, even when you're right there.

Texture, color and perfect focus make this a great portrait. Visit tinou bao's photostream on Flickr to see more.

It's in the eyes

This is an incredible image. Be sure to look at the original photo on Flickr to see all the detail.

Self Portrait - Mirror art
Mon, 18 Feb 2008 04:47:47 +0000 -

We've all done this. Taking your own self portrait using a mirror is easy and fun. Experiment with different aperture settings and focus points to make sure you are focusing on the subject, you! Don't overlook mirrors and reflections in places other than your bathroom. There are several Flickr group photo pools dedicated to this type of photography. Have some fun and see if you can find yourself in your own reflection somewhere.

Beauty
Sat, 02 Dec 2006 06:21:55 +0000 -

From Lapidim's Flickrstream... some of the most beautiful landscapes I've ever seen. Sometimes the photograph shows a reality that is made from light, line and texture. Other times the beauty is there and the photograph simply testifies to a moment in time when it existed.

I had to post one more...

It's All About Tension
Thu, 17 Aug 2006 03:01:38 +0000 -

This simple photograph from Barbara Fischer's Flickr stream is a study in tension. How many different ways can you see opposites, balance and depth in this single photograph? Think about lines, color and texture and talk about the choices Fischer made. Do you think this photograph was accidental or composed?

Look for color
Mon, 12 Jun 2006 04:11:14 +0000 -

Great photos are all about light, shape, form, contrast and... color. Color is powerful. It can create mood, passion and tell a story. This example from Naveen Jamal's Flickr Stream is a good example.

If you're trying to get a blue sky, don't be afraid to underexpose some to avoid losing the rich colors. That's what I did in this photo from my own Flickr stream. You can also use a polarizing filter which will help bring out a deep blue color from the sky and control the way light is reflected off of flat surfaces in your image.
