  4. How to make a great photo by applying several concepts: • point of interest, • rule of thirds, • form, • framing, • light.

  5. POINT OF INTEREST RULE OF THIRDS FORM FRAMING LIGHT

  6. Point of Interest • To spot good subjects to photograph: • take a fresh look at things around • see a lot of interesting subjects. Which one is the point of interest, the building, the fountain or persons?

  7. Point of Interest: • What is the subject? • Where is the subject? • Is the subject interesting, eye catching, or important?

  8. Rule of Thirds Basically rule of thirds is where you should place your subject in the camera frame.

  9. Rule of Thirds • How to place your subject in the picture? • Imaginary vertical and horizontal lines • Imaginary four circles

  10. Rule of Thirds Here is another good example of an application of rule of thirds. The person as the main subject poses in the right spot while you still can capture the nice background as well.

  11. What do you think?

  12. Rule of Thirds What do you think about each of the pictures in terms of applying this rule of thirds? Click A, B, or C A B C

  13. What do you think?

  14. What do you think? Consider to leave space in front of moving objects

  15. What do you think? Here's another action shot where it's important to leave more space in front of a moving subject than behind it.

  16. Let’s practice

  17. Which pictures that applying the rule of thirds? The position of the subject is a bit dull and seems so static because the subject is sort of in the middle of the picture Yes…this picture is the most perfect picture in applying the rule of thirds. Yes…this picture is the most perfect picture in applying the rule of thirds. The position of the subject is a little boring and seems very ordinary, because the subject is sort of in the middle of the picture. The position of the subject is in the middle of the frame. It is too centered. Remember, the rule of thirds don’t have to put subject in the center. The picture would be a bit static if you do so. This one This one This one This one This one

  18. FORM

  19. FORM

  20. FRAMING To create a well balanced and striking composition by framing your subject within the confines of an architectural detail, such as a window or a doorway.

  21. FRAMING You can always find suitable framing devices almost anywhere

  22. LIGHT • Basic type of light in photography can be differentiated into: • Backlighting • Side lighting • Diffused lighting

  23. LIGHT Backlighting is just as it sounds: light that comes from behind your subject. This can make a beautiful photo, or turn into a disaster photo.

  24. LIGHT Side lighting can have a very drastic effect on your photos, also. But, unlike backlighting, its brightness comes from the right or left of your subject.

  25. LIGHT • Side lighting: • showing texture • adding depth to a photo Depth in a photo is the sensation that we’re looking at a three dimension picture, which in fact we are looking at a flat sheet of paper.

  26. LIGHT Diffused Lighting • To avoid a very bright sunlight, • wait for the sun to go behind a cloud • if your subject is moveable, put them in the shade of a tree or building. Diffused light is light that scattered and spread out as opposed to direct light. It is softer than direct light.
