Infrared: Villa Pamphili in Rome

On a Sunday afternoon in September, we walked with Yana through the villa Doria Pamphili. Last year, we arranged for Yana a photo shoot in one of the largest parks in Rome, and this time decided to take a look at this beautiful place with an infrared filter.

Since in the infrared range green turns white, and there are a lot of greens in the villa, the effect turned out to be magical. A feature of infrared shooting is that even during the day, the shutter speeds with which you have to work will be measured in seconds. So in addition to the IR filter itself, at least you need a good tripod and the ability to determine the exposure pair. For those interested in photography at the bottom of each picture, I have given shooting options, and those who want to combine a vacation in Rome with photography lessons, I invite you to my author’s courses.

Shooting options: 24 mm, ISO 400, Aperture 2, Shutter speed 4 sec

Italian pine pines, one of the symbols of Rome, look especially cool in the IR spectrum.

Shooting options: 24 mm, ISO 800, Aperture 10, Shutter speed 30 sec

Shooting options: 24 mm, ISO 800, Aperture 8, Shutter speed 10 sec

Shooting options: 24 mm, ISO 3200, Aperture 5, Shutter speed 1 sec

How to learn Italian from scratch on your own?

Say what you like, and learning from scratch a foreign language - what a job! Especially mental and, most often, emotional. This is exactly what happened for me. In school years, I, like many, began to learn English. He was primitive, at the level of knowledge of the alphabet, personal pronouns, standard phrases such as “My name is Natasha” and “I live in Moscow” or scanty poems that I have eyes and I can see the book and the pen in front of me, I see ceiling and floor, I see a window and a door. You know, many years have passed, but I still remember the poem.

Italian: words that are most often used

Traveling the popular tourist routes of Italy, it is quite possible to do without knowledge of the language. In Rome, Florence, Milan and Venice, many Italians, especially young people, are quite fluent in English. But if you want to "dig" the country deeper and turn off the highway into the village, then knowledge of at least the basics of Italian will be very useful here.

Everyone can learn Italian: an interview with a tutor

Almost a year soon, my desire to learn Italian brought me to Vika, a language tutor on Skype. This acquaintance prompted the idea to write a review about her on BlogoItaliano, and later Vika repeatedly said that students used this review to contact her. With many of them, she took her first steps in learning Italian, and with some - like me - she became good friends.

Learning Italian and basic difficulties for beginners

I remember, about 7 years ago, a friend of mine, who began studying the Italian language, constantly told me how difficult it is. Knowing the nature of the acquaintance, I nodded, but believed that the problem was not so much in the language as in it: enthusiasm and perseverance can work miracles, but with the presence of these qualities there were questions to the acquaintance.
