Seoul denies 'Comfortable woman' compensation agreement with Tokyo

Agreement between the Republic of Korea (Republic of Korea) and Japan in 2015, which is compensated with The "woman of comfort" failed. ROK said that compensation arrangements for Japanese women forced into sexual slavery before and during World War II did not even consider their needs. South Korean Foreign Minister Kang Kyung said: "I am sorry to hurt the minds of the victims, the families, the civil society that supports them and everyone else." "The agreement was not reflected, sufficiently addressing victim-centered approaches, which are international standards to address human rights issues." The special forces have spent five months investigating an agreement between Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and former President of the Republic of Korea Park Geun-hye Park to be prosecuted for alleged corruption. According to the agreement, Tokyo agreed to pay nearly nine million dollars to the foundation to help survivors.This agreement includes an apology for Japan's atrocities.

 

Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga said such an agreement should be supported. "Agreement to solve the problem". "It has finally been confirmed and can not be confirmed again between the two countries of Japan and South Korea," he said. "It is very popular among international societies, and it is very important that this agreement is applied. Critics argue that the apology was issued at the time of the agreement, is not sincere and is dictated without the consent or knowledge of the woman in question. The investigations have reflected those feelings in the conclusions of 31 pages issued on Wednesday. This report says. "The agreement has been well negotiated and effective, like the ordinary diplomatic agenda." At the beginning of last year, Tokyo was named ambassador of the Republic of Korea after the comfort monument for women was placed in the embassy in Seoul. And at the beginning of next year, the president of the ROK, Moon Jae-in, will have to decide whether to break this agreement.

Hope he can wait until he is visited by Abe and the Winter Olympics in February to announce it. The renewal of tension over women's comfort problems may hamper the close cooperation between Tokyo and Seoul to deal with Pyongyang's nuclear and missile projects. Washington relies on both capitals to help protect against the threats of leader Kim Jong-un (DPRK). The United States should have both parties seated at the table and talk if there is any hope of doing so.

The Comoros seek help from the international police of the United States to the buyers of veterinary products in the passports of the Comoros

The government of the Comoros has asked Interpol and the US agencies. UU Information related to foreigners, including two people accused of violating Iranian sanctions, and the purchase of a national passport to facilitate their activities. The Foreign Minister told Reuters. Souef Mohamed El Amine said that the Comoros would cancel 158 diplomatic passports that had been bought and canceled an honorary consular nomination, which may not be justified by official investigations.
"We are working closely with the International Police, the Americans came here and we asked them to provide the information they had in order to share it and help us identify them." ElMin said Tuesday. The statement is the first official reaction in Comoros to a Reuters article about a Belgian company called Semlex, which provides documentation for countries in Africa, as well as for small states in the Indian Ocean. Reuters highlighted how certain Semlex employees and associates received their passports and Comores locations in various cities around the world.
There are also indications that two US officials have been accused of sanctions by the Iranian people who bought the citizens of Comoros. Reuters can not be identified as a citizen of the Comoros or Semlex. If it is confirmed that Semlex plays a role in the case of the Iranian people, then Comoros will terminate the agreement with Semlex El Amine.

Semlex's lawyer declined to comment, saying the client denied all Semlex's allegations contained in two special reports published by Reuters in April and December of this year. The lawyer said earlier that an unidentified third party was dealing with Reuters, with the aim of destroying Semlex and Albert Karaziwan, the company's executive director. The Iranian president called two Iranians who were accused of making hundreds of millions of dollars for Iran. The other side accused Iran of supplying equipment to Syrian troops in the Comoros. For the year 2015, according to government documents seen by Reuters. Reuters can not contact any of the people listed in the Comoros document. The two previously publicly responded to the US accusations against them. The Amine also said that Comoros is working with several agencies in the UAE to determine how and where to offer statelessness in Cambodia to the Comoros. In exchange for cash in 2008, he was assaulted to sell passports through a parallel network. The Amine said there were investigations to determine whether a passport or consulate was issued as a result of corruption or political pressure. Officials have stated that at least 158 ​​diplomatic passports have already been purchased and will be canceled. "We are cleaning things up," he added. "We will cancel the passport, the consular appointments of the Supporters will be abolished."

Peruvian President noted changes in Cabinet after Fujimori's pardon.

Peru's president Pedro Pablo Kuczyński, under pressure after forgiving an ancestor who lost his dignity, was considering a change in his administration while trying to find a way to recover from the consequences. Prime Minister Mercedes-Benz Araoz said that 79-year-old Wall Street investor Kuczynski had asked him to lead the cabinet and look for ways to strengthen it. "The president has ordered me to review the review thoroughly and we will see what happens in the next few days," Arasazi said at a press conference Wednesday.

This is his first public appearance since forgiving the former Alberto Fujimori oppressive leader on Christmas Eve, causing severe protests and political resignations. In the last two weeks, the political situation in the leading exporters of Peruvian metals has suddenly become volatile, after the Congress ruled by the opposition trying to overthrow Kuczynski following scandalous corruption. Two days later, he forgave Fujimori, who tortured his opponents claiming that forgiveness was a punishment for keeping Kuczynski in the office.

It is unclear whether the minister might be at risk of restructuring. But the reforms will announce a new twist to the right to the right-middle-left coalition government. Kuczynski denounced him as a "traitor" for forgiving Fujimori. No plans to replace the finance minister, Claudia Cooper, a government source. According to the physician, Fujimori was hospitalized in Lima, where he was delivered to the hospital and returned to the hospital to undergo serious medical and cardiac problems. Araoz said he respected the decision to forgive Fujimori Kuczynski, noting that it had been evaluated long before the vote to expel him in Congress. "Not that I or any member of my Cabinet and the Peruvian Party for Change are involved in any negotiation in humanitarian pardon (vote) negotiations," Araoz said.

Fujimori was sentenced to 12 years in prison for 25 years for crimes of corruption and human rights in the right wing government. In 1990-2000, Cassinski's decision freed him from the conviction and protected him from criminal proceedings during a pending trial. Fujimori was reviled by many who thought he was a totalitarian. But appreciated by others, he credits for saving Peru from the economic crisis and leftist protesters. On Wednesday, Minister of Culture Salvador Del Sol announced his resignation from Twitter, the first cabinet member to resign after being forgiven. At least three presidential advisors from the Ministry of Justice and two media personalities also resigned. Three lawmakers from the party announced their resignation earlier this week. Fujimori's opponents plan a new protest on Thursday.

The medical evacuation started from a zone of rebellion surrounded in Syria.

The largest medical evacuation in Syria took place after an agreement between Damascus and the rebellion allowed the Red Crescent to evacuate several patients. The Syrian Medical Association (SAMS) said in a statement that four out of four East Ghouta migrants, about 400,000, were surrounded by President Bashar al-Assad's forces. In 2013, the immigrants were taken to a hospital in Damascus. It is a densely populated city and houses important cities near Damascus. The military has routinely defeated a troop withdrawal in western Syria last year with the help of the Russian Air Force and Iranian militias are backed. The Jaish al-Islam insurgency in Eastern Ghouta said that 29 detainees were released. On the other hand, the government would allow 29 exoduses. However, one of the six-month girl list died before she could evacuate, said Mohamad Katoub, SAMS Support Manager on Twitter. 

The International Commission of the Red Cross (ICRC) said it had facilitated an agreement that took place two months after the UN asked the Assad government to evacuate 29 emergency patients. First Francesco Rocca, president of the International Federation of the Red Cross, wrote in a tweet. "We are happy that our negotiations achieve this important objective as a sign of hope for the Syrian future. The Deputy Minister of Commerce, Ahmed Mounir, said that such an agreement had taken place with many people who would go east of Ghouta in exchange for the release of what he called the kidnappers. He said on television. The political office of Jaime al-Islam in Ghouta says that the Syrian Red Crescent (SARC) is the mediator between Damascus and the rebels. "We work to make them through the Red Crescent, and we are carrying out almost 500 evacuations," said Yasser Delvan. There are no indications that there will be more evacuation.

The United Nations appealed to the government to evacuate approximately 500 patients, including children with cancer, and said there was no reason not to allow immigrants to continue. Although Eastern Ghouta is officially "the jurisdiction" under the ceasefire agreement of Russia, which constantly fights. The United Nations says the population, including 130,000 children, is experiencing the worst malnutrition in nearly seven years. Residents and aid workers say the government has issued a series of measures in recent months in what they call deliberate use as a weapon of war, accusations that the government has denied.

On Sunday, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said that Turkey is working with Russia, which is Assad's ally in the exodus. Ankara has supported some rebels in the Syrian war. The number of people needing urgent evacuation has been reduced because they are still dead while waiting for UN assistance. There were 494 patients, while SAMS identified 641 severe cases and 17 deaths. SAMS, a non-profit company that provides support to hospitals in most areas of the opposition, said the 29 remaining patients in the agreement would be evacuated from the hospital. "The list includes 18 children and 4 women with heart disease, cancer, kidney failure and blood disease, along with cases in which there is no advanced surgery available in the closed area."

Russia is excited about a new deal with the United States on weapons with Ukraine

The United States has entered a new phase of participation in the Ukrainian conflict, which Washington has signed an arms supply deal for the city, which, according to Moscow, will be the subject of a 2015 agreement aimed at ending the struggle.

The current US sanctions against the Russian revival as a result of the conflict in eastern Ukraine, which led to the collapse of relations between Russia and the West.

Washington has long criticized Moscow for saying - technical, financial and material support material - the Russian back of the Donbass rebel. Militants are fighting for full autonomy or independence in Ukraine.

Russia refused to provide weapons to a separatist group.

However, in the United States in the past, this has made Trump's efforts under control and even now hides any party supporting the conflict.

Moscow said the last step has an impact on an agreement to end hostilities in 2015.

Russian Foreign Minister spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said: "The United States is urging to drill large-scale massacre in Donbass where there is already a situation on the edge as it continues to separate the areas controlled by Kiev in fact, Washington was a co-killer of killing people.

Earlier, the United States has granted Ukraine education and support tools such as allowing private companies to sell small arms in Ukraine, cannons and other weapons.

But according to the new plan Washington said that Kiev will provide what the Foreign Office calls "better protection".

According to unnamed US officials who are widely cited in the media, they will include US anti-aircraft missiles.

President Donald Tramvaux Former US President Barack Obama was reportedly seen as selling heavy weapons in Ukraine but stopped doing.

Republicans criticized Obama for their weaknesses, even Tom TITAN was also criticized for failure in Moscow

Last week, Russian officials left what they said in the Control and Coordination Center in Ukraine. This group is a joint patrol based on the original agreement.
Many Western countries have called for the return of Russia. The last step in the United States may be to put pressure on Moscow to change its decision.

Trump plays a role in national security challenges, while China places strategic cooperation

On Monday, US President Donald Trump issued his first national security strategy, naming China and Russia as Washington's "competitor" and "competitive power," trying to damage US interests in all sectors.

According to the new document, Trump's "American America" ​​is about increasing competition between nations and on the basis of old ways, which think that competition rather than cooperation determines the current global environment.

This document shows that the United States does not abandon its ambition and will do everything possible to try to guarantee that the world powers rise under the United States and not with it and never overcome it. It also shows the decision to try to improve the global system to serve the interests of the US. UU Instead of the interests of the global community.

But this new document is not contradictory. For example, it says that the United States will not impose its value on others, but will also create a strategy to create a world of shared ideas that will serve the interests of the United States and reflect American values ​​for the security and prosperity of the United States. .

Somehow, this strategy shows a return to the dark side of the story when the zero-sum game is identified. It clearly illustrates the size of international politics and the inability to develop a roadmap to expand the scope of cooperation. In fact, those documents were quickly forgotten. However, if the strategy is fully implemented, it is unlikely that the result will be of interest for the United States to be large again.

In fact, there is a competition between China and the United States, but its economy is much more competitive. For example, in 2016, the volume of bilateral trade exceeds $ 550 billion, with a double investment of more than $ 200 billion. In addition, 2.6 million jobs in the United States are backed by economic ties, and China is willing to work with the United States to continue its commitment to build it.

In response to the USA launched its new Chinese embassy in Washington DC, said China will maintain its commitment to world peace, global development and international order, but added that the national interests of some countries over the common interests of other countries and the international community it is not its own egoist And it will separate the United States.

The official said that the United States should accept and accept the rise of China and say that it is time for the United States to abandon its obsolete solution and to work with China on the common goal of prosperity and prosperity for all.

China and the United States will remain committed to cooperation, but the two countries offer a distinctive perspective for the future of world affairs. Unlike the United States, China has presented a vision and approach that demonstrate openness, integration and mutually beneficial cooperation. For now, it remains to be seen if the new US security strategy. UU It will be fully implemented, but recognizing that the current definition of global atmosphere is China's right of way.

Many children still believe in santas?

(CNN) Santa Claus comes to town - about 85% of young Americans believe In an interview, 85% of 4-year-olds said they believed in Santa. 65% of 6-year-olds said they believed, and 25% of 8-year-olds said they believed These figures were published in a small study in the American Journal of Orthopsychiatry in 1978. But researchers say the percentage of young children who believe in the old Saint Nick seems to have stabilized over the years. Research in the Journal of Cognition and Development in 2011 shows that 83% of five-year-olds believe that Santa Claus is real, writes the study's recent study author Jacqueline Woolley. "We've found in recent studies that this 85% number sounds right," said Thalia Goldstein, assistant professor of developmental psychology at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. "Children's belief in Santa began when they were between 3 and 4 years. They were very effective when they were between 4 and 8 years ago," he said. "Then at 8 years old when we started. Seeing the decline of faith when children begin. To understand the reality of Santa Claus. "Nearly three-quarters of Americans say they get a visit from Santa as a child and one in five adults say they are parents or guardians of children at home, who believe in Santa, according to Pew Research Center, published in May. 2013, although the United States. The number of children who believe in Papa Noel seems to be similar in some European countries. Of the 161 parents in the United Kingdom, 92.5 percent think the Father is true for their children. Aged 8 years, according to research papers presented at the 1999 European Union Research Association Annual Conference in Finland. But it turns out that most children live in Santa Claus. There are more opportunities for them to believe that he is. "Real" Santa, according to a study published last year in the journal Cognitive Development. Goldstein, who co-wrote a short study with Woolley, a professor at the University of Texas at Austin. A total of 77 children ages 2-10 were interviewed after visiting a Santa Claus man in the Children's Science Museum in Norwalk, Connecticut. Interviews took place during the week before Christmas. According to an interview, 39.2% of the children believed that the visiting man was Santa Claus, who fell 38.8%. But believe he is alive at the North Pole and can communicate with Real Santa, Goldstein said. Then 13.8% said that the man was not Santa. He says that he is a non-Santa. And not the North Pole. But can communicate with real Santa. Researchers have limited the study of how Santa's unbelieving children are excluded from the group because "They may hesitate to come with their parents to organize this event." "The age is not anticipated, if they want to believe that Santa lives as a real guy, then we realize what parents were calling to children - the number of Santa activities and the promotion of Santa. With their parents dealt with - it was also affected. Whether the kids believe it or not is a real Santa, "Golstein said. "The only thing that affects their faith is how much Santa Claus is involved with this year," he said. On the other hand, age and cognitive development seems to predict when children begin to lose their faith in Santa. Andrew Shtulman is a cognitive development psychologist and professor at Occidental College. Los Angeles. "It is no coincidence that children stopped believing in Santa during the first year of elementary education, because it was a time when it was developing a more complex idea of ​​what was possible and what was. No, "Stoulman said. A separate investigation into the beliefs of children in Santa Claus. "In our study, we asked the children to create a questionnaire asking Santa to compare the questions they were thinking about their ability to identify possible events," said Stathman. "We found that the best kids could test the probability of a crisis, they expressed doubts in their questions," he said. For example, Stathman says children will change from asking questions. "How high is the pole?" Or "What is your elf name?" "How do you fit in the chimney?" And "How do you know if I'm naughty or good?" When children move from faith to the Father to doubt, they are most likely to feel proud to solve a holiday puzzle, Goldstein said. "They are part of an older age group that does not need to believe in Santa Claus," Goldstein said. "If a parent finds out his children do not believe in Santa and are very uneasy about this, there are other options," he said. "You can talk about Santa Claus as the spirit of redistribution, or how to. Help other people or ways to think of someone who may not be as lucky as you are. "

Digital photography assistant

Undoubtedly, the worst, the worst, the worst way to teach any subject, with little flash, which now comes with the camera. In the light chambers made with tubular lighting gives the impression that the subject is in charge of the steam machines, such as shades that are very shady seemed to be planned, and if you are using flash photography to anyone who looks at the camera, they can have a red eye.

All of these problems are caused by a problem: the closer the lens is, the closer the camera lens will be to the larger lens. In the "good day", the light is a separate element that is placed on top of the camera and, what is more important, it is separated from the camera.

Even keeping the camera light at a distance from the camera will make all three improvements. Also, with a separate shotgun, it can cause light from a wall or ceiling that provides natural light. If you can load more material with me, I beg you to take a separate shotgun, they still make a more serious camera.

Surely there will be times when it is necessary to use the built-in lights, with or without images, so what can be done to improve things? If there is any light, use as much as you can. The camera automatically focuses on them doing this by automatically using the largest aperture to allow the most natural light possible, and add a touch of light to do whatever is necessary. However, they can accelerate. The camera can not then know if its subject is changing and if it has a fixed hand.

Try changing the exposure mode to the priority of the shot and the speed limit speed of about 1/30 of a second, if you have a steady hand and a large amount of movement in place, you can give it a sharp image .

Reflective light

In the strong sunlight, professional photographers will reach their reflection. These really grow very small to carry, but not small enough to keep in your pocket, on vacation this summer, you also need the assistant to put it in its place.

The lens has a large number of white, silver and gold surfaces. The idea is to send a little light to the shadow area, thus reducing the overall contrast of the spray. By approaching the subject or beyond, you can "erase" the contrast accurately.

The pieces of black objects are used in the same way, but to reflect the darkness in the subject, creating a shaded area is called gobo.

Goulo and glass are widely used in photography and beauty.

Although reflections and gobos are probably not practical propositions for everyone, but for the most volunteer photographers, the values ​​understand how they are used. You can often find white walls or use paper or paper to do the same.

How to shoot a snowflake or snowball

Successful photography in snowball skiing is just a matter of correct claim compensation. (See below for quick help)

Chances are that you are reading this article because you tried to take pictures in the snow and you ended up with turbulence under the cover. This is because you left the camera automatically and did not make any affected payments.
When you let the camera calculate the exposure itself, try to read all the colors and colors of the scene and insert it in gray. Anything that suits gray means that if you add all the values ​​of all the colors and sounds, and you are on average, you will get to the center of the blue color. This system works better than 90% of the photos. Imagine a spectacular view of the sky, some saplings and a little dirt, and some in the middle. Add all the tones and you will get almost half the gray area all the time.

Obviously, the system has dropped by 10%, and if you are a creative photographer than others, and someone who does not have the most extraordinary image, you can see that it is getting worse. Despite the additional measurement mode in a better camera, what is in the center of the cameras in the snow is too imposed due to extreme levels of contrast, especially on a sunny day.
Look at the picture on the right: men in dark clothes, mostly in the shade and sunny. It is difficult to imagine a scene with many contradictions.
Ski The camera alone will try to show as much detail as possible, especially in the highlights. Under normal circumstances, it is exactly what we want.Nothing worse than the highlights. Basically, I will not see the details in the shadow of the image, instead of highlighting it.
But the snow is exempt from the law, we see that the snow is white, we want to see some details, if possible, but we are willing to accept the white background in the image, we want to see more in the person and the things that we are photographing.

Macro

One of the lenses I've done recently is the 90mm macro that I use for the photos below. I met this little man in a friend's garden and he sat there for a long time and allowed me to take a photo. It seems the plague does not know you until you move right away. I remember reading somewhere that they saw only moving objects with their eyes. Still stuffed or slow. No, it's interesting to see where that spot is coming from, and I know they have their feet. But they know they have hair.

The biggest problem when shooting is small, so it's about concentration. As you can see, this is not everything. The pitch of the pitch is very low so you should use the lowest depth possible. Set the speed of the camera at the speed priority and the maximum speed at the lowest speed that does not display camera movement (with a 90mm lens, 1/100 second) to ensure that the camera chooses the smallest aperture. You also have to pay attention to where you focus, not to focus on the nearest point, because it loses the depth of the value of the Adjustable field. It can be assumed that some of the objects near the lens. However, in the foreground, over-focus will look bad when something out of focus is unacceptable. The answer is always to take more than one goal and change focus. Set the camera to emphasize the hand-held fireplace and try your hand at the old art of highlighting the camera yourself. Awesome stuff!

Long Lens

Animals, especially in bushes, do not allow them to approach them, so the key piece of equipment for animal photography is the long and expandable lens. I use an extension of 75-300mm and most of me use it at the end of 300mm. I want a 500mm lens, but the best thing is and you really need a lens on the tripod. The general rule of thumb for hand-held hands without a camera is to use a speed that is faster than 1, which is divided into the focal length of the mirror. Then 500 mm should be used at 1/500 sec.

For this reason, you should choose clothes that will allow you to blend in with your amenities. I discovered when tattoos (Click on the link for pictures) on the river has come to me, all soaked in water. But if I stay still, dare come back in 5 to 10 minutes.

Penguins and sea lions were shot dead at the zoo. (Still booking to travel to Antarctica), which gives you a better chance because it is difficult for them to stay away from you. If you are filming at Zoo Zoo, make the trip as soon as possible for three reasons. The rays of light are no better than the sun's low light in the sky, the shadows and shadows, and the colors of the warm sunshine. There are only a few who travel and eventually the animals are more active. In the afternoon, when full of sun, they are often in the shade under the shade and sleep, and I have the opportunity.

Photographing Animals

From all that I found, the animals, birds and insects were the most satisfying and difficult. They do not do what they like and tend to do what they expect them to do. The best way to photograph animals is freedom. But I'm always ready to go to the zoo. In the past, it was very difficult to get a good picture at the zoo due to the wire mesh or the rods from the cage in the back. Now the zoo is improving and the habitat may look almost natural if the camera is pointed.

Herons (top right), although not strictly "in the wild". But I think they can argue in the natural habitat. The family stayed at a church tower in a small town near Seville, southern Spain. The villagers have been familiar with them for years and thought they brought luck to the village.

Manual focus
When taking pictures of animals, you have to be very patient or do not do anything for a long time or have so many inexact behaviors that they can not be stored in the viewfinder. What you should do is study the animals for a while and try to guess the next movement. Birds usually follow a given flight path, so if you can find what it is you can wait until they fly through a certain point. I often switch to manual focus when I take a bird photo because autofocus usually ends up trying to focus on the void.

Photography of Panoramas

This tutorial will show you how to record a story of a scene while you are absent, and then put together a drawing to create a large document that has the ability to make large clothes to hang on the wall. This technique is most often used to make landscape gardening with the following. Of course, you can take pictures of the whole story and copy the image up and down the image if you have a perfect glass to record everything in the box, but then it will be a normal file. The objective of this exercise is to create a large document from which you can make a suitable size and high quality printing. The full-size version of the photo is 11,548 x 3464 pixels, so it can be up to 40 inches (about one meter) of good quality.

Another reason why you can use this technique is when you record scenes and limited storage, you can not get enough of the subject or you do not have enough glass and you can not see the whole set. In a photo This technique works well with a large group of people. You must be very careful when creating a photo together, so that nobody changes between shots. So, what do you have to do?

Shutter Release

The next device that I think is essential is a flower connector that allows photographers to become a fully mobile camera when taking pictures. This is the second step to ensure that the minimum amount of vibration is available. I use the NIKON MC-36 that allows me to put all my focus and attention on the photos and I do not have to think about my D300 touch when the shot was stopped. Not only that, it can compact the movement of the camera, but, again, relax, compact the picture and provide a more convenient photographic experience. Otherwise, if there is little air as a factor ... it is easier to accelerate using the MC36 at the right time than simply pressing the camera button with your finger. In addition, this category also has all the normal functions of "timers" involved and can be programmed to work as full time intervals if desired.

There are some models of light emission in the market today, so finding your camera and meeting your needs should not matter.

Now, in shooting conditions, like anything else, you can not rush and you need to be at the best of times.

Lens of Camera

Using a high quality lens makes the difference. Yes, I know that the lens of today's customers is taking good pictures. However, when you click on the optimal point and you get different ingredients using a professional glass, it will improve your image, especially in the flower or flower photography, which often involves a lot of important information to be strong.

High quality telescopic
I use the Nikon 17-55mm f / 2.8 DX lens, which is very bright and can make me look pretty enough to have a 99% chance of getting it.

Note *: the closest flower image is considered close, not the macro photograph, which will require a macro lens of 1: 1 (or 2: 1). Flower photography is usually not a macro unless someone is shooting near a plant, such as a skeleton or a center.

As I mentioned in my flower hobby - Part 2, I think shooting is similar to the photo. Then, with that thought, I would recommend using a 17-55 mm telescope or a 24-70 mm telescope that will provide you with the oldest equivalent of the "vertical" vertical vertical focal length from 85 mm to 110 mm on the day of the movie. Tiny Small Micros currently offers great architectural quality, good functionality and flexibility, the focal distance you need for this type of project.
