Friday's Tip
Tip 7:
Make use of shapes;
* interesting shapes can create powerful composition
Tip 8:
Photograph translucent objects:
* leaves, flowers, anything that lets in light
* photograph unusual images using the light box
* effect of the final image can be improved by adding another light source (soft box)
* edit in Photoshop to create scientific images
Tip 9:
Photograph food:
* shapes, textures, patterns and colour
* use simple light
* use exposure compensation
Tip 10:
Take an abstract approach:
* focus on the patterns and texture
* keep lighting simple
Tip 11:
Close-up photography:
* choose unusual viewpoint so that the object is not clearly identified
Tip 12:
Mix transmitted and reflected light
* glass and water both reflect and transmit light which can create subtle tones and textures
* transmitted light; place a glass object in front of a strongly lit white background or use a translucent white material like a tracing paper lit from the behind to create subtle tone
* multi-facet objects can produce a variety of effects by changing the background lighting
* photograph glass by using diffused light from the front of the set-up, such as soft box or a light bounced from a white reflector. This will reveal reflective qualities of a glass
Tip 13:
Look for ready made still life:
* pattern in the fruit at a market stall
* colours
* patterns
* composition
* for sharper pictures, use tripod
Tip 14:
Create design with colour:
* choose background colours in harmony
* choose opposite colours
* add props to create interesting still life
* create a mood by changing the white balance
