Why Some People Don't Look Good In Photos?

I have been taking photos of people since many years. It is common for me to observe that some people who look good normally don’t look good in photos, whereas some people look good in photos than what they are. It is not the fault of the camera nor is it the weather or the background. It is called photogenic thing which is usually seen with our movie or TV celebrities.

Some people who say that there is no such thing like photogenic, has no good experience with photographs. Though you cannot do anything with your god-given face, there are some tips that will make a person look photogenic. And a good photographer always suggests his clients with tips of looking good in photographs. There are some people who get irritated with the suggestions of photographer, but if they want to look good they have to obey him.

People these days have many soft wares like photo-shop to mend their photos, so photogenic is not an issue now.

Drinking Tea Can Be Better Experience

Most commonly offered drink by most of us to our guests is tea. Tea is refreshing and many like the taste of it. Everything is made by hand, leaves are picked by hand, sorted, processed and then brew by hand. So, much effort is put for just single cup of tea.

Most of us have a habit of tasting the dish before serving to others and same can be the case with tea. Process starts with opening the can or pack of tea powder and smell of it touches your nose within seconds and you enjoy the smell of it, even want to smell for many times. Then experience the color and texture of dry leaves, the whole leaves are curled or rolled with minimal dust is treated as best quality tea.

Based on the instruction on the pack, brew them after brew the tea powder is ready and excellent tea is prepared with this. After brewing them you can observe the color of tea after brewing them. Finally, each tea has different color like black tea has dark reddish tint etc and enjoy the flavor, which you like the most, and you can also experiment with different types of teas.

Junk Food- A Cause Of Concern

In this fast moving society many of them prefers junk food even though it is not good for health. Junk food is fat loaded with high sugar contents and other unhealthy elements.

Many people often wonder why it is important to have a healthy diet. Life at times can be very busy and some people just don’t have time to cook. So they prefer outside food but, they don’t understand the disadvantages of junk food. Because of these junk foods many of them are facing obese problems. They will also loose weight.

Nowadays we are observing obese problems mainly in children why because, they always prefer outside food. Parents should take care of their children; sometimes it may leads to serious problem in future.

Junk foods will have less nutrition’s and more fatty acids, doctors suggest that it is good for health to avoid junk food. So people, who want to maintain healthy life, should stay away from the junk food.

A Different Approach of Super-Hero Movie

I never liked Bruce Willis in super hero movies. He has some other capability and some other charm. I don’t know why he always tries to be in shoes of a super hero and exaggerate himself when he could do much more in other themes.

But his performance in the movie Unbreakable was remarkable. Though the plot and the story line were boring, it had some good performances by the cast.

The movie could have fared well, if the Bruce’s character had little more power in the plot like in those classic comics of other super hero movies.

I have never heard of any successful super hero taking much time to be convinced that he is a super hero. People don’t use this formula because they know how it embraces audience. I wonder how Shyamalan dared to use this in this movie.

I am sure I am not going to purchase any DVD of this movie because it is not worth it.

Do man-eaters still exist?

When I say about man-eaters, the Tsavo incident is the most famous one. The victims of the attacks of two man eating lions are as many as 563 people. Not a cool number. There was actually a film released named The Ghost and the Darkness in 1996, named after those two lions.

Then the next famous incidents are the adventures of Jim Corbett in India where he fought with savage tigers. Of course the book on his experiences is also very famous.

Africa and India are said to be the most areas where these incidents occurred. Not only lions and tigers, animals like bears, wolves, leopards, jaguars were said to attack humans.

Whatever may be the reason for this, people have started hunting down all the animals which they thought are dangerous. This resulted in extinct of these animals all around the world, thus causing a great threat to the natural food chain.
