Depth of Field: Tele photo lens are good at focusing on the subject and blurring out the background

round Wide Angle Lenses better not used too close unless for Macros. Because they distort the proportions making caricatures of humans and creating leaning illusions . Best way to get close ups is to use the zoom lever from a distance. Depth of Field: Higher in small cameras with Wide Angle Lens . They show the background clear behind subject. However when ure very close to the subject, (the camera subj distance is much smaller than the camera-background distance) u can fade out the background by slowing the SS (Shutter Speed) a 1/20 instead of a 1/200 maybe or by increasing AV. You achieve the

shallowest depth of field when using a large aperture with a telephoto lens, and the largest depth of field when using a small aperture with a wide-angle lens.
When you set the Exposure, this decides your AV and SS. Darker pictures can be made lighter and data retrieved but not for too light pictures

>For Sommerlad shooting:

Decide the side, the corner. Check with camera if its ideal for shooting Check if u have unhindered view of curtain Decide the shhot angle, select one prop , place it so as to enhance this angle Set the Tripod, stable, full standing height, lever rotatable Select WB according to needed mood and ambient light Set exposure according to available light Simple setting, minimal props Fill the frame.Make sure that you have moved close enough to your subject so that nothing is in the frame that doesnt need to be there. Get close or zoom in Using doorways, tree boughs and windows can be very effective in drawing attention to the subject, put the horizon at the top or bottom third, depending on which is more important One the standard rules of composition is the rule of thirds. This means that you divide your frame up into thirds and place your subjects within these sections. The points where the vertical and horizontal thirds meet are very powerful place One of the most important and toughest things to learn is to complete destroy the image you see when looking through the lens. Reduce the entire image to lines and shapes. See if you still like it. Photographs are two-dimensional, not three. Those lines and shapes in the background become an important part of the picture so they have to be in the right place when you shoot it. It takes practice though!

Once again its important to attempt to keep your vertical lines as much in line with the sides of your image as possible. Rule of Thirds :Placing a line directly in the middle of a shot will effectively cut your image in half. This can be used with dramatic impact but also can leave your image looking segmented.

Lines can be used to great impact particularly if they are contrasted with other shapes and lines going in different directions. . When you show the ground theyre standing on, you anchor them to the environment and give them the visual support they need in an image.The rule for limbs works well here too. If youve got most of a structure in there, be sure to finish it or crop even shorter on some details. What is the central point of interest? What will draw the eye of the viewers of this picture? What in this image will make it stand out from others? What is my subject?: Place it in a prominent position, use Depth of Field to blur out other aspects in front or behind your focal point. Color using contrasting colors can also be a way of setting your point of interest apart from its surroundings, similarly contrasting shapes and textures can make a subject stand out especially patterns that are repeated around a subject. give moving subjects space to move into. Some call the space in front of a moving subject the active space in a photograph. Space below tips?
Include an interesting object in the foreground of a scene. It adds depth, dimension and point of reference. Framing a subject by having parts of foreground objects on both sides, draws attention to it.

Dominance and Subordination: Making an element dominant can be done through


size and color. Large objects dominate smaller ones and warm colored objects dominate cooler pale colored objects. Another method to achieve dominance is through convergence or radiation or lines. The eye tends to follow these lines to the point where they converge. Coherence refers to the belonging together or the various parts of the artwork. In reality these parts may be unrelated, but within the confines of the image their color, shapes, and size form a sense of unity. Visual coherence can be achieved through the use of analogous color and color tonality. It can also be achieve through similarity of shape, color size or texture. Balance implies that the visual elements within the frame have a sense of weight. Another long oblong vertical square on the opp side of dream? There are a few basic approaches to this technique. You can have a very large dominant foreground with a complimenting background, such as a large rock framing or leading you to the smaller appearing lighthouse in the background. Using triangular lines will help you find your way back. One line leads your eye to the subject and the other brings your eye back to your starting point. I will also look for a good foreground subject and a diagonal line to lead your eye from one point to another. Texture: I look for texture in my composition, because it can add depth and detail to the image. more interest than a flatly lit subject.

Create Contrast: Place a bright subject on a dark background, or vice versa. Juxtapose varying textures and shapes. Arrange & balance subjects within the frame so that viewers eyes actively circulate within the image without leaving. One, three or five subjects often flow better than two or four. A

gazing animal or a pointy subject creates directional flow which may need balancing with use of space or another subject in that direction. Choose a directional feeling suitable to the subject: Diagonal or curved lines can excite or distract. Horizontal lines can comfort or bore. Vertical lines can impress or overpower.
