PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS
Do you wish you were a better photographer? With just a little know-how and a little experience, you can get pictures you’ll be proud to show off. Here are a couple of tips to get you started.
TM
1) A simple background shows off your subject better. When you look at the camera screen, be sure to look at the whole picture. Look at the area surrounding your subject, and try to keep distractions out of the background. Make sure there aren’t and poles or tree branches growing out of anybody’s head!
2) Center-stage is a great place for a performer to be, but the middle of your picture is not the best place for your subject. Bring your picture to life by simply moving your subject off-center. Start by playing tic-tac-toe: imagine a tic-tac-toe grid in your viewfinder or LCD screen. Now place your important subject at one of the places where the lines meet. This will help you create a much more appealing photo.
3) Use your flash during the day. You might think that you should only use flash at night or indoors, but that’s not the case at all. If it’s a bright sunny day outside and the sun is creating harsh shadows on people’s faces, switch on your flash. By adding extra light, you can fill in those dark shadows and make a more appealing photo.
These three simple tips can help make a big improvement in your pictures right away. Now go put them into practice – grab your camera and make some great images, whether you’re headed off on an adventure or just strolling around town. Have fun! — Dan’s Camera City
