DSLR Photo Tip, Give Time Lapse Photography A Shot! - Photo Tips
A) Always have photo business cards available, you never know when they can lead to new and exciting photo opportunities. (Even two years later.)
A final thought, as a photographer, your most valuable tool is your mind and the ability to think and see creatively. Do not get so wrapped up in one specialty area of photography that you forget to apply those same photo tips to other areas as well. Life is a journey, not a destination. Likewise, who and what we are as photographers is what we learn from the different types of things we allow ourselves to photograph.
Sooner or later we all give sunset photography a shot. It's almost a rite of passage! In fact, for a lot of us, seeing stunning sunset photos is what got us interested in photography in the first place!
If you wanted a shot every 10 seconds, the setting would be: 00:00:10.
"Sure!" You say enthusiastically, then almost as an after thought you ask, "What are we shooting?"
One of the reasons most portrait photographers avoid hands, is because it is so easy to accidentally shoot them uncomplimentary. Imagine a young couple where the man in a friendly loving manner puts his arm around the young ladies' waist. If the fingers show up in the shot what does that do? They usually end up pointing either to the waist or the stomach. Most women really don't want you looking at their stomach or waist. It's not the viewers fault, but
There is a way!

Then you are done and can start shooting!
There is a cable release system built for Canon that has a timer and can be set to shoot the time lapse photos. They only cost a few bucks and may be worth having. In addition to time lapse photos, they can be used as a normal single shot timed shutter release to avoid camera shake in your landscapes.
Then enter the total number of shots you want in total. A good tip here is to set this as high as possible because you can always stop it later, but you can't add.
E) Always be prepared to control the light in your photo to meet the needs of the shoot. A bright sunny day is not always the best time to take a great photograph. Remember this: the brighter the light, the harsher the shadows.
