How to Take Great Photos
From the Lessons from the Scrapbook Page blog:
5 tips on how to take great photos.
My favorite was:
Take charge. Some moments are best captured passively—letting the action happen on its own. Others can improve with direction from the camera person: you. Suggest location, arrangement, and props to enhance the image.
Around my house - I’ve been trying to find more interesting locations to take photos. For example, my daughter just started taking a class at the preschool where she’ll be officially starting this fall. I wanted to take a quick picture - and decided to take it outside - in front of the flower garden.
I have so many semi-posed pictures inside the house - and you can only be so creative. Now that the weather is nice, and the flowers are in bloom, why not take advantage of it?
