Method of making digital photograph and digital photograph made by that method

2 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claim 1, wherein said third step involves modification of chroma and color balance between said moving elements and said still elements, whereby a modified digital image having a color condition (lightness, contrast, chroma, color balance) that can be accepted as a digital image to make a realistic digital photograph.

3 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claims 1 and 2, characterized in that the photographing of said first step is performed in a series of several shutter speeds involving an estimated shutter speed decided by a person taking photographs as a shutter speed close to the speed of said moving elements.

4 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claims 1 and 2, wherein said first step operation is carried out by a series of plural selected shutter speeds in a range between {fraction (1/125)} second and {fraction (1/16000)} second.

5 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claims 1 and 2, wherein said first step is carried out under a photographing condition of setting the value of exposure compensation in a condition not higher than ±0.

6 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claim 2, wherein said third step operation is carried out to create said modified digital image characterized by a color condition (lightness, contrast, chroma, color balance) matching a visual perception to a color condition of a standard digital image having a color condition such as to print said realistic digital photograph.

7 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claim 6, wherein said standard digital image is prepared by recording digital data of a standard photograph having a realistic color condition except for that of a moving element, in a computer of said system, said standard photograph is taken at a normal shutter speed in a range between {fraction (1/60)} second and {fraction (1/125)} second as recommended by a specification attached to a camera at the time of purchase.

8 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claim 6, wherein said third step operation is carried out by simultaneously indicating said digital image of said standard photograph at a position beside said digital image of said basic digital image.

9 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claim 2, wherein said fourth step operation of printing a digital photograph is carried out by a printer built into said computer image processing system.

10 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claim 2, wherein said fourth step operation of printing a digital photograph is carried out by a printer of a system independently separated from said computer image processing system.

11 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claims 1 and 2, wherein said first step of taking photographs is carried out by using a digital camera.

12 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claims 1 and 2, wherein said first step operation is carried out by setting ISO sensitivity to at least 400.

13 A method for making a digital photograph as set forth in claims 1 and 2, wherein said first step is carried out by using a digital camera enabling free selection and setting of ISO sensitivity, taking photographs at ISO sensitivities and shutter speeds preliminarily set to several stages, setting ISO sensitivity so that halation does not occur in flowing water, and so that the composition of still elements can be grasped by a monitor display image of said camera, then taking photographs at several high shutter speeds of at least {fraction (1/350)} second giving priority to shutter speed.
