How to take digital pictures

Composition:

Using composition can show you lines that are naturally showing without special effects. These lines can give off certain feelings that are implied.  Also imbalanced or slanted shots can emphasize movement (change). But also curved or soft lines in a picture can imply a soft nature or serenity.  Coverage lines imply a scale or depth in pictures. And that can be used when using repetitive elements creating rhythm in a picture.

Light:

If you stand between your light source and your subjects because then details that the light projects will be lost. But it can create some interesting visual effects. Though taking shots on the side creates more interesting shapes and structures.  It is better to take side shots in the beginning or at the end of the day.

Colour:

Red colors will create a warmer feel to it rather than blue or green, so try to be creative with your colour shots. Also look for images that have contrasting colors like green and red or yellow and purple to create tension. Using same colours will also create harmony in the image.

 

Landscape:

Keep horizontal lines levels in your photography to achieve a great photo. Also never put the main subjects in the middle of your photo but don’t put the subjects in the extreme edges. Shoot at different angles of the camera but avoid empty space.

 

People:

When taking pictures its good to see soft light because it produces the best skin tones. And side photos give an in-depth picture of your subject.

 

Being Ready:

Take a lot of photos and move around as much as possible to give yourself plenty of shots. Be alert because a “one-in-a-lifetime” shot can appear.
