Composition
Watch your Horizon:
Watch your Horizon:
It’s best that before you take a photograph always look at the horizon on two points:
a) Is the horizon straight? It is easier to have your horizon straight in the camera viewfinder before pressing the shutter release, saving time to straighten the image later in editing software's.
b) Where to place the horizon? The ‘correct’ natural spot for a horizon is on either the top third line or the bottom line of the ‘rule of thirds’, rather than completely in the middle. In saying this, rules can be broken if you are completely sure that your image with the horizon is very striking.
(See diagram below for where to place the horizon)
Example of photograph showing the horizon on the 'Top Third' line.
Example of photograph showing the horizon on the 'Bottom Third' line.

Use Rule of Third:
Use 'Rule of Third' as guide to frame the scene. Place the subject on the points where the vertical and horizontal lines meet.

I took this photograph, but was not happy as the green foliage on the bottom left corner looks messy. I decided to change my viewpoint.

- Change your View Point:

I decided to point the camera down at the flower bud. The background is blurred, isolating the subject from its messy foliage.

Composition
Use Selective focus:
Use a wider aperture (f2.8 orf5.6) to blur the background. This will isolate the main subject from the background.

Composition
Enhance the detail:
Move closer to the subject; create a tighter crop to enhance the detail and add impact.
The photograph below shows the lady standing in a park and it does not add impact to the image.
By zooming in or moving closer to the subject creating a tighter crop, adds impact to the portrait (see below). The crop emphasis on the model's face, her make-up and her eyes.

Tip of the week
Understanding your camera modes
The running person symbol stands for Sports mode, which is all about speed. Your camera will automatically choose the fastest shutter speed to capture the fast moving subject. In some cameras, the camera will enable continuous high-speed shooting; which means it will take photographs one after another continually. Use this mode to capture fast moving subjects or any kind of sport.

Understanding your camera modes
The mountain & cloud symbol stands for Landscape mode. Using this mode your camera will select the smallest aperture to maximise depth-of-field. Your image will be sharp both in the foreground and in the background. As the name suggests, use this mode to take landscape photographs.

Useful definitions
Useful definitions with examples of images (part 1)
Aperture: is the
size of the hole in the lens which combined with the shutter speed, controls
how much light gets into the camera.
Aperture mode / Aperture Priority: (AV) the mode that automatically calculates the shutter speed when you choose the aperture you want to use.
Camera shake: is when the camera moves as you press the button, causing the image to be blurred.
Close-up / Macro:
means close-up photography and is great to photographs of flowers, bugs, shells
and other tiny objects.
Composition:
arranging objects in the photographs that look pleasing. Also see Rule of
Thirds.
Contrast: is the
difference between the bright and the dark areas of the photo. High contrast
image will show very dark and very light areas in the same photograph.
Normal Image (balanced contrast):
High Contrast Image:
Cropping: Cutting
of the edges of your image, either by moving in closer to the subject or
trimming the edges using photo editing software.
Uncropped Image:
Cropped Image:
Depth of field (DOF):
shows the range of components in a scene, front to back that remain sharp.
Shallow depth of field makes the objects sharp in the foreground only. Deep DOF
makes everything in the image sharp from foreground to the background.
The image below is photographed using Shallow depth of field, using f5.6
The image below is photographed using Deep depth of field, using f16
