More to think about your digital photos
I thought again about writing a little different things you can think of to improve your photo. It becomes a little refresher from my last article and the little new things. One thing I think is a little strange is the belief in programs such as Photoshop. You can not save an image that is blurred or overexposed. I have countless times in public forums that come with a giant fuzzy image or a picture in which parts of the picture is so overexposed, so that they are almost white in the hope that someone with a magic wand and photoshop to make it into an image that makes blurred all are astounded.
It is therefore important to understand that if you send in rubbish in photoshop it will come out shit. You should be somewhat aware of what you do when you shoot. You are collecting data on the light and therefore you should collect as much as possible.
Here are some simple rules
Resolution
Always put your camera’s resolution at the highest possible. If you need more memory get a bigger memory card because they have become quite cheap today. If you have SLR RAW format. You collect a lot more information. Jpg format is a compression so when you lose data even before the image leaves the camera. Think that when saving jpg you are going to 8 bits.
Enlightenment
Indoors it can be good with an extra flash, even if today’s lightning has been a little better so they are far from good. Remember that you can use windows and other light sources of light. Light is the most common cause of blurry images. So, good lighting is vital. It is precisely the light that you capture with your camera. Here you can adjust to set a higher ISO number, but then you expect to get a worse and noisy image. You can good lightning from LEDs cheap.
Consider the following for the images to be useful:
- Tell me something about your image. Make sure something happens. People who are doing something much more interesting than if they just stand straight up and down in one line.
- Take eye contact with your subject. Then the person you are photographing eye contact with the person then should see the picture.
- Break the rules. Try a weird angle. If you shoot a little effort to come over and take a picture from below to experience the subject from a new fresh angle. Create a new perspective.
- If you are setting up a scene, try not to be in the clear. Then it becomes unnatural. Let motives interact normally with each other. Invite them to interact with their environment. Drink coffee or such things.
- Set up humorous images requires creativity, but can definitely be that little extra for a really good picture. Use perspective your way. Think before you shoot.
- Do not center everything you shoot. You create an interest by placing the motives outside the center. See my other article which, among other things, I write about – thirds rule.
- Follow the movement when something moving from right to left, then do not take the picture from the right side then it will look like the object leaves the slide. Try to place yourself so that it looks as if the subject moves into the picture.
- If people are watching to ensure that they are also looking into the picture and not out of the picture.
- Frame the picture with natural objects. For example, a fetus to be a natural framework or foliage.
- Think about patterns. It is exciting to discover patterns that can make things in the picture. It may be that sunbeds at a given angle creates an exciting pattern.
- Simplify. Move to see if you can not get a picture where the image does not become messy.
- Dare to discover and see the world from new angles. Think creatively.
