Using creative hacks is so much cheaper than spending thousands of dollars to buy new equipment for different hacks. Its so much more fun too. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This article lives up to its title and does exactly that by providing you 9 unorthodox and creative tricks to spice up your photography game. Some of them are so weird that they seem implausible at first and others are so easy, you may wonder why you didn\u2019t think of it first. Easy or weird, the fact is these tricks work and they will make for hours of creative photography fun.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The trick for getting shaped bokeh is a great contender for the weirdest tip that actually works, and surprisingly well at that! Another one is the lens reversal trick that instantly transforms your regular lens to a macro lens and allows you to explore a side of photography that is otherwise only possible with only expensive lenses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">However, there are some tips that can potentially damage your camera- your lampshade holder may not be strong enough to support a DSLR, especially with a heavier lens. It may distort the shape of the holder, or worse, break and cause the camera to fall and get damaged.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The lens reversal technique for macro shots completely exposes the interiors of your camera. Even a bit of dust or moisture getting inside your camera can damage it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Do try these tricks but remember to be cautious.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Shutter Speed: An Overview<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.boostyourphotography.com\/2014\/03\/shutter.html\">http:\/\/www.boostyourphotography.com\/2014\/03\/shutter.html<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Sometimes you come across articles that brilliantly elucidate even the most complicated topics with examples that readers can relate to.
