With a plethora of new blogs sprouting up daily, use easy smartphone photography to jazz up and differentiate your blog!
Many of us would love to own the best smartphone in town, as mobile phones have now evolved into multi-purpose gadgets. The tasks that can be completed using a smartphone are endless and one of them is clicking beautiful photographs, which turns out to be my favourite pastime as well.
Going by my personal experience, I’ve noticed that photos clicked by smartphones turn out even more beautiful than those clicked by cameras. I’m not sure why, but they just look more appealing to me. Besides it’s convenient to slide in a cell phone in the handbag during occasions rather than carrying a large camera. So, smartphone cameras have an edge over normal cameras because of their light weight, compact size and portability.
Speaking of smartphones, I like trying out newer models, so I was elated when I got the opportunity to try out the latest Asus Zenfone 5. This smartphone comes in a range of colours like gold, purple, ped, black and white. I had the opportunity to use the black Asus. It had a rear camera which is eight mega pixels and a front camera which is two mega pixels.
On receiving the handset, I decided to go on a random photo session spree just to check the camera feature. I must say that the clarity of the photos was excellent and the photos were bright. I clicked a selfie and then I was amazed to see the various photo enhancing tools that were available to beautify the snap. There are tools to soften the skin colour, brighten the skin colour, make the eyes appear bigger, option to add blush and to even reduce the size of one’s cheeks.
One can frame the picture and use the vintage, latte and other options to give it a unique look. One could also add the right amount of saturation or hue just to enhance the look. The results were amazing on using these options. The selfies looked good even though I didn’t apply an inch of make-up. And this is good news for fashion bloggers like me, as clicking random and interesting pictures is an integral part of the fashion blogging world.
Fashion bloggers need to click high quality pictures for their fashion blogs – sometimes in low light environments. This phone comes in handy in such times because it can be used even in low light environments, which are a constraint in many smartphones. So, night pictures turn out pretty well. It has the ability to capture 400 % more light and this is what sets it apart from other mobile phones. I savoured my experience using the Asus Zenfone’s camera and clicked some pretty awesome photos with it. Here are some of the snaps I clicked with the Asus Zenfone 5. These pretty yellow flowers were clicked in our garden.
The Egyptian artifact was clicked using the HDR Mode of the camera.

So, this sums up my experience of using the Asus Zenphone 5 camera. The popularity of social networking today means that most of us love to update our profiles with our latest photos; what better way to do this than by making use of the camera feature in our smartphones.
Smartphone photography is a great way to give the photographer in you plenty of practice, with everyday objects around you – so that you can hone your eye for unusual subjects and better composition. Keep practicing, and if you run a fashion blog or any other kind of blog that relies heavily on photos, your new photography skills will certainly wow your readers!

People say that women are the greatest enemies of women. I vehemently disagree. It is the patriarchal mindset that makes women believe in the wrong ideology.
The entire world celebrates International Women’s Day on March 8, 2024. It should be a joyful day, but unfortunately, not all women are entitled to this privilege, as violence against women is at its peak. The experience of oppression pushes many women to choose freedom. As far as patriotism is concerned, feminism is not a cup of tea in this society.
What happens when a woman decides to stand up for herself? Does this world easily accept the decisions of women in this society? What inspires them to be free of the clutches of the oppression that women have faced for ages? Most of the time, women do not get the chance to decide for themselves. Their lives are always at the mercy of someone, which can be their parents, siblings, husband, or children.
In some cases, women do not feel the need to make any decisions. They are taught to obey the patriarchal system, which makes them believe that they are right. In my family, I was never taught to make decisions on my own. It was always my parents who bought dresses and all that I needed.
Love cannot be imposed Stalkers speak of love, which in a few minutes turns deadly when they are rejected by the woman.
