Digital Photography Tips By: Chandler and Neya
Rule of Thirds • Place your points of interest along the fines or intersections . If you do this it will allow people to interact with the picture more naturally. • Split the picture into 9 equal sections.
Working With Lines • The lines that can be found in images are very powerful elements. • Horizontal, vertical, diagonal • Lines can make an image look far away, up close, small, tall, etc.
Finding Fresh Angles • Changing the angle you shoot from can impact the feeling and the size of your subject. • This can also have a real effect upon the lights, shades, and patterns.
Photographing Children • To photography babies easily, lay them down on a blanket and get eye to eye with the baby and your camera. • When photographing older children, it is best to get the picture when they are doing things they enjoy. • When you photograph kids it is good to get multiple shots.
Getting horizons horizontal • When your horizon is not horizontal, it can ruin a brilliant shot. • When your horizon is slightly off, it does nothing except make your photo viewers feel dizzy or make then lean their heads when they view your shots.
Getting Images Straight • Unless your going for a real effect, take a moment before you take your shots to ask yourself a question about when likes there are in your view finder. • Don’t just consider your horizon, horizontal lines, and vertical lines. • Once you get your shot, don’t move around too much.
Fill Your Frame • Getting close to a person in action can show more detail. • If you take pictures far away, from the action then what you are really truing to get a picture of can get lost in its surroundings. • 4 ways to fill your frame: Optical zoom, Digital zoom, use your legs, crop your shots.
The Importance of Focal Points. • There are 6 techniques to enhance a focal point in your image: Place a prominent position, focus on a certain point, blur out things infront or behind the object, make your focal points larger, use contrasting colors, similarly contrasting shapes, shapes and textures.
Photographing Moving Objects. • Moving object=Active Space • Space behind= dead space
Getting Backgrounds Right. • Check your background before hitting the shutter release. • Move your object. • Change your shooting angle • Using aperture to blur backgrounds • Using focal length to blur backgrounds. • Place subject in of open spaces. • Fill your frame with your subject. • Make your own background.
Framing your shots. • Giving the photo contexts • Giving images a sense of depth • Leading the eye toward your main focal point • Intriguing your viewer.
Using Converging Lines • Take this shot and the natural reaction for those looking at the scene will be for them to follow the lines into the distance • Experiment with positioning, wide angle lenses • Position the “convergence” • Add interest at the convergence
