Wildlife Photography

                                              Nature Camera Capture ( Wildlife Photography)





Photography is the new after school activity in our school which just started. I decided to take part in that activity because i like photography and its about the wild life which is challenging and interesting for me to do. For doing this acitvity i set some goals to accomplish at the end. I want to be good photographer and i want to learn some skills in camera. I want learn the focusing and angle things in camera and lighting system also.
In this activity at the very starting of this activity we started talking about the different camera and how they different from others. In other session of this activity we talk bout how we can take a good picture by using different tools from the camera. After learning all these things we started our first tour in our school compound and we started taking some pictures of small wildlife like ants birds lizards etc which was quiet fun and interesting and how can i forget that it is very challenging for me to take a picture of something which have life. Because it's really hard to take picture of the live animals or something. Mr. Duncun is our head in this activity who tells us to take 3 picture of wildlife animals for our surroundings. We had a trip to lake near battramulla but unfortunately i couldn't go there because i had lots of work at that time. Which is really bad thing i missed the important thing but i took lots of beautiful pictures from our school compound.
After taking all the picture now its time to make pictures beautiful and editing the lighting and the brightness. So we started that and we edited our picture that we took and we made them beautiful and give some effect of wildlife in them so that it will look like wildlife photo.
From this activity i learnt a lot about the photography and also about the camera actually different types of camera. This actvity is also challenging for me in some area where we have to take pictures of birds, which i have to polish my skills bit more by taking more pictures of birds and moving animals.But in some area i really good i love editing and im really good in that we used some application for editing the pictures.

The shuttle Game ( Badminton )

                                                                Badminton
The game of shuttle called badminton. It’s a really interesting game played by shuttle cock and racket. In badminton there is net and we just have to pass the shuttle over the net. There are lots of matches we can play in badminton like doubles, mixed doubles, and singles.  This time our Overseas school of Colombo is going to host this event in Colombo.  Saisa event is one of the big sports event where all the players come from different countries and we play tournament. It’s like the championship.
Our coaches Mr. De silva and Mr. Pradeep are working so hard to make us play and they are helping us to play badminton properly. In badminton there are some rules which we have to learn before starts playing. I started playing Saisa badminton and I got in the team. There are eight boys in team and we started cleaning our skills and techniques for this game and we have to learn some new techniques for beating the opponents.
 I set some goals for badminton which are going to help me when I play. I have to learn new techniques and I have to clean my techniques by playing more matches. I have to collaborate with my team and coaches. Communication is one the big thing in game and in badminton communications is one of the big this because we have to hit the shuttle so we can call how is going to hit the shuttle.

We some challenges in this game like leaning skills and keep up with that. And for me it’s hard hit the back hand shot and body shot so I have learn that types of shot more clearly and with more perfection so that I can play in actual match. Badminton for me is not a big thing I already played this game in my old school but this event is such big event for me so I have to play in this event very well .
