First: Using a Tripod

Among the photographers I know, few take a tripod with them here and there, you may also be almost never seen fans will take it. In fact, when you put the CANON PowerShot SD950 IS battery camera on the tripod, everything will become interesting. Suddenly everything slows down, you don’t take right then left quickly fill up a store card. When you use a tripod, it is necessary to take the time to composition, mainly because the SONY Cyber-shot DSC-W170 battery camera cannot move freely. Now you have to adjust the horizontal level tripod, it must be moved around to adjust the position, and therefore, you must slow down, and seriously consider your photos.

Go on a handheld camera 10 photos, then immediately fitted with tripod and shoot 10 images. See what works better, and I bet it is the latter.

Second: Change the shooting angle

Spend a whole day to think about the question of the shooting angle. Try those you may have never been tried at. These method only limits are you willing to change what has become accustomed to. If you shoot portraits, may wish to bring a ladder. If you do not have a ladder, can climb up the tree or stand in other higher place. Shot from above figures are often able to enlarge their advantages, particularly to avoid double chin. If you’re photographing flowers, may wish to consider the angle to shoot from close to the ground. Doing so may get you dirty clothes, but I promise it’s worth it. Try to use Sun shooting translucent flowers and let the Sun through the petals. New shooting angles are almost always able to bring you new inspiration and creativity.

Third: Shooting As little as possible

Yes, take less. Can produce thousands of photos is good, but it may also make your creativity dried up. Unlimited digital camera to take pictures, results and you will go around shutter. Under this idea, satisfactory results but will rarely. Right, consider this advice when you next go out to take Canon bp-512 charger pictures, small-capacity storage cards, small enough to make you cannot get to shoot, and with no alternative. If you have a large capacity memory card, then give yourself a limit, such as only 50 a day.

Suddenly, you take a significant reduction in the number of photos. You can’t see something free to take all, as if to return to the era of the film, we must seriously consider every photo. Result of this is projection the spark of creativity, and you will be more sensitive to what it can produce a good picture of Dell INSPIRON 6000 ac adapter.

Fourth: Take the camera along with you.

Chris Orwig mentioned in his book, the visual poetry, “even if not taking pictures, bring a camera can make life different.”I could not disagree. Take your camera can make you stay alert. You watch in the world will be like when the camera has been at hand. You have a reason to stop, look, no matter which. Take your camera, at least in most of the time on the inner tire. Shoot things in daily life do not require special photographic techniques. Gradually you will be in a new way to see the world. Even just using camera phones can.

Fifth: Find the themes which you are not skill at, and then hold it practice.

Want to do anything, means you have to own the “comfort zone”. If you had pictures of family and the elderly, out shot some landscape photos of Acer Aspire One A150-Bb battery. Suddenly, your camera needs a new set. No models, Assistant of no signal, no props or background, there is no requirement for DOF and shutter speed. Now you have a new point of view shot. Scenery won’t listen to you, you can’t tell how it moves, or Flash fill flash. Typically, the scenery photos require a large depth of field, low speed shutter, tripods and the composition and lighting a fresh perspective. If you are willing to spend time photographing things that do not often take, I bet you will take a familiar theme when we can get new ideas. At the same time understand more profoundly on the camera.

Sixth: Collecting colors, any color.

Select a color, this color and do the exercises. If you have time, each color, and all you can do it again. Out the door with a camera, shooting marked with the theme of a particular color screen. If you select blue, filming mainly in blue photo. Note the water and the sky, looking for the sun before sunset in dark blue shadows projected on the sky and the Earth. Look for the texture was painted blue wall. If you select the yellow, a sunflower field, or shooting things bathed in golden sunlight. You even can be added to photos by late selected color.

Seventh: Camera settings

If there is a camera setting is what you are not familiar with, like that camera adjustment. Now fixed use these settings until completely used to it. If you can only be used to automatically set, I do not recommend using manual mode directly. But be sure to get rid of automatic functions, you should be regarded as creative, and automated features photography of poisons. These capabilities deprive you of how the photos of the performance right to speak, so you just viewfinder and press the shutter.

You can start with Av, TV, or p mode. Spend a day using only one mode at least. If you need help, manual is the best information. Once you get a set up, on to the next, until the end is not popular on the m-mode.

Eighth: Follow the famous photographer and Join a local photography club.

Most photographers are kind and generous. Of course, some people are unwilling to take the time to the person seeking mentors, but who are willing to follow such people? Rely on self-taught become a great photographer is a difficult road, having a mentor will make things different. Joined the local photography club, participate in some activities.

Ninth: Find the golden ratio

Also called the golden ratio, Fibonacci is satisfied that the law of leases, etc. Golden ratio by Leonardo · found by Fibonacci, and be applied in nature, architecture and art. It is believed that this ratio is most in line with people’s Visual aesthetic in nature is the most effective. Around the golden ratio some debate, but it’s very interesting. Based on the golden ratio is the establishment of the three-point rule. If you have time, look on this online introduction to the theory. Grasp the concept of the golden ratio can significantly improve your ability to take photos to attract audience attention.

Last: To maintain the attitude of beginner

When you think you have done well in certain areas, you can not continue to progress. Great photographers such as Douglas Kirkland, always think of me as. For beginners I worked with some of the self-righteous people to share knowledge. You know. You try to tell them just to learn something, they fight you, and he said he already knew. Or they refuse to accept anything new, because do not want to change yourself. I tell you, this is the creative end. Put your pride aside and learn from other people, even if you feel you have located a top level. If you really at the top, you can also learn from other people.
