Tips for Taking Good Pictures
1. Move closer to the subject
Subject is the main focus and interest of a good picture, hence move closer to the subject
Example: Move closer to the subject (flower) |
Golden Rule of Third |
Place the main subject on one of the four lines or four intersections (i.e the green dot). See picture above under the topics "Move closer to the subject"
Fill in with flash under bright sun to eliminate shadows on the flower. |
Use the function of "fill in flash" to fill the harsh shadows under the sun. Almost every digital camera has this function.
4. Try vertical picture (Portrait)
Vertical picture of certain subject (e.g.building or portrait) sometimes look better.
5. Turn on the camera built in stabilization function or use a tripod under low light environment
Under low light, picture may appear not in focus due to lower setting of shutter speed. If your camera has image stabilization device turn it on, otherwise use higher ISO or a tripod or use the flash (if possible).
6. Keep the background of the subject simple
Complex background diverts the focus interest of the picture. e.g. This picture has complex background.
7. Get a brand name camera not necessary expensive one
Nowadays, brand name point and shoot camera does not cost too much. One can get a brand name for under $100 dollars. Do not buy those no name camera. Even a brand name camera phone can take quite okay pictures for 4R size picture. Read camera review in the web and Google search.
