Picture Composition
When you Photograph friends using your camera, you are composing images. When
you draw for your art classes, you are also composing your images. It is an instinct
cultivated just by looking at the things around us.
Whether you are a beginner or more experienced with photography, here are some
of our favorite tips that will help you improve your photography!
Place points of interest on the intersections and important elements along the lines.
Also known as a “polarizer”, is a photographic filter that is typically used in front of a camera
lens in order to reduce reflections, reduce atmospheric haze and increase color saturation in
images.
Depth of field is the distance between the closest and farthest objects in a photo that
appears acceptably sharp. Now your camera can only focus sharply at one point.
Creating a sense of depth and distance in your Phone photos can sometimes be tricky to
achieve. If you don’t have anything in the scene to add a sense of perspective, your images can
look flat and lifeless.
This will allow you to produce more intriguing and exciting Phone photos that invite the
viewer to explore the details all the way through the scene.
5 Ways to Create a Sense of Depth in Your Phone Photos
Use Leading Lines - the term “leading lines” refers to lines in a scene that lead from the
foreground all the way into the distance.
Include Foreground Interest - Photos with foreground interest are more dynamic and
engaging, and they emphasize the distance between foreground elements and the
landscape beyond.
Shoot from a Low Angle - shooting your scene from a low angle allows you to give more
emphasis to the foreground of the composition and it’s a great way of creating a stronger
sense of depth.
Frame the Scene with Foreground Objects - the “framing” composition technique is when
you use a natural frame, such as trees, rock openings, arches, or a hole to act as a frame
around your main subject or distant scene.
Overlap & Layer Objects - the final technique that we’re going to look at is overlapping or
layering elements within the scene. This is a great way of demonstrating distance within the
composition.
6. Use Simple Backgrounds
Simple backgrounds are key to creating clear, high quality images that your audience will
be able to see, register, and respond to no matter where they see it.
Most people use flash photography only when it's dark, at night or indoors. This is because
there isn't enough natural light or ambient light. But there are many other situations where we
recommend it. You can use a flash to get rid of shadows from your photo.
Why Flash?
o To Give Direction
o To Create Separation
o To Create Drama
o To Freeze Motion
o To Clean up the Existing Light
