Practical Photography

If you’ve just started out on the photography path for a hobby - here are some tips to help you along your way:-

• Get down to the same level of the object you are trying to capture
• If possible, try to use a plain background so your object stands out more
• Move closer to the object as well as using the zoom facility
• Change the view around so use the landscape and portrait views
• Lock the focus
• Move the main object from the centre - more in the foreground or background can often make the main focus stand out more
• Know your flashes range as taken too far away will results in a dark photo
• Be awrae of your surrounding light an adjust you camers settings accordingly
• become a photo director - re-arrange people, add props etc
