SELFIE WHILE TRAVEL? WHY NOT?

Too much selfie will kill you (on social media), some people said, but it actually not. Selfie is fun, boost your confidence and actually good for you. Saya mungkin bukan termasuk yang selalu selfie di manapun, namun mengambil foto selfie saat berada di berbagai destinasi akan menambah memori menyenangkan di deretan koleksi foto kita. 

Too much selfie will kill you (on social media), some people said, but it actually is not. Selfie is fun, boost your confidence and actually good for you. I maybe not a person who does selfie everywhere, but take selfie photos while in many destinations will add a pleasant memory in our photo collections.

How to get a great selfie shot? What if I only use my smartphone camera? Well, it's perfectly okay, and here's the tips for taking selfie during traveling:

BACKGROUND

Kalian sedang trip dan menemukan lokasi cantik, jangan lewatkan untuk mengambil foto selfie. Selfie with a background is always nice, jangan terlalu dekat dengan kamera sehingga kita tidak dapat melihat background, no need tripod, just use your hands.

You're on trip and find a gorgeous location, do not miss to take selfie photos. Selfie with a background is always nice, do not get too close to the camera so that we can see the background, no need tripod, just use your hands.

SOURCE OF LIGHT

Finding the perfect natural light

Cari sumber cahaya. Ada dua cara mempergunakan sumber cahaya ini untuk mendapatkan foto selfie yang menarik, pertama wajah mengarah ke sumber cahaya, atau justru membelakangi (ini trik saat cahaya keras matahari persis di belakang, kepala kita justru menutupi direct light sehingga tidak gelap di bagian wajah). Jika cahaya natural sulit diakali, gunakan flashlight di kamera depan seperti yang ada di Advan i5E sehingga kita tetap mendapatkan selfie yang bagus bahkan saat cahaya kurang mendukung. Active camera di Advan i5E juga otomatis mendeteksi dan menyesuaikan dengan tone kulit sehingga foto yang dihasilkan tetap fokus dan cerah di berbagai kondisi karena terkadang cahaya di setiap tempat dan waktu beda, foto pas matahari terik di atas jam 12 siang tentunya beda dengan matahari saat menjelang sunset.

Searching for the light source. There are two ways to use light sources to get a photo selfie attractive, first by leading our face to the light source, or backing it (use this trick when the harsh sunlight is right behind us, our head cover the direct sunlight precisely so it is not dark in the face). If natural light is difficult to be tricked, use a flashlight in front of the camera like the one in Advan i5E so we still get a good selfie even when the light is less supportive. Active camera in Advan i5E also automatically detects and adjusts the skin tone so that the resulting image remain focused and clear in a variety of conditions because sometimes light in every place and time difference, taking photo when the sun is blazing above 12 pm is certainly different with when the sun is just before sunset.

 

MAKEUP

Since you're taking a selfie, tidak ada salahnya menggunakan makeup untuk enhancing our face. Malas makeup? Gunakan built in photo editing di Advan i5E untuk menambah make up ringan sehingga wajah terlihat tetap segar di foto, edit foto ngga dosa kok :)

Since you're taking a selfie, there is no harm in using makeup to enhancing our face. Lazy doing makeup? Use the built-in photo editing in Advan i5E to add light makeup so that your face will stay fresh in the photos, editing photos is not a sin anyway :)

TAKE A LOT OF OPTIONS

No worries memory habis karena 16 GB storage di Advan i5E dapat menyimpan banyak sekali foto selfie kita (yes, A LOT!).

Snap and still feel the photo is not good? grab some selfie photo options, we can choose which angle we liked lately. Take lots of pictures from various angles and expressions.
