Easy Photography Tricks to Make Your Pictures Pop
As any professional photographer will tell you when it comes to taking good pictures, understanding how you really use your camera will always produce better results than using default functions. But what if you don't want to get involved with your camera controls, or you get too excited about using the camera function on your phone - is it still possible to take good photos?
The good news is that there are simple rules and techniques that everyone can use to enhance their images. Familiarize yourself with the great design tools, as we call them commercially, and notice the difference quickly.
1. Move your feet
To explore your topic visually, try walking around the topic. See if there is a better idea than the one you first saw. Best of all, make an effort to take on a variety of positions. Try to bend down and look up at your title, or stand up, step up or down the stairs to look at your title. When you look down on a topic you tend to underestimate their value.
On the other hand, if you go down and look at the title you give them value and power.
You will find that the image of your little dog or dog in their eye is always more satisfying than looking down on them standing. It does not cost you a lot of photography, and if you can create a variety of ideas you will choose which one is best.
The easiest and most effective way to enhance your photos is to take multiple photos from different places, and choose the one that best fits the theme. In time, you will learn what works for you and will focus on those position.
2. Leading Lines
Lines are a very important tool in your design toolbox. Leading lines are something photographers use to capture the viewer's eye on their photos and around them. It is an easy way to visualize the image visually and encourage the viewer to follow the line to the image location.
There are different lines to consider. The diagonal lines suggest a powerful movement - a fast movement that can be used with function. Try adding a dividing line to photos of running people, cars or motorcycles. Anything with a purposeful direction will benefit from the use of diagonal lines.
Horizontal lines give a feeling of peace. If you want to give your image a peaceful feel, finding ways to add horizontal lines will help you with this. Vertical lines mean strength and power - think of buildings or large trees. If you go down and look up with a story with vertical lines it seems to go up.
Curved lines allow the eye to move slightly around the image. This gives a lazy feeling and a little slower movement; it can also refer to sexually arousing lines. Using a line to move the eye from front to back image gives depth and this is a feature that gives your photos three-dimensional quality.
4. The Rule of Third
The Rule of Thirds is based on the finding of numerical sequence by a 12th-century mathematician named Fibonacci. It became the basis for a design concept known as the Golden Ratio. In photography, simply split your viewer into noughts and cross the board.
Your goal is to place the most important elements of your image in one of the cross points, and the other elements in the image reside in rows. Doing this makes your photos look more realistic, demonstrates understanding of imagery and creates balance. Once you start doing this you will see that many photographers are using this device to give their photos more character.
4. Framing the shot
Frames are easy to use, and will always be an important tool for creating a better image. They are an important part of controlling and giving emphasis to your photos. The frame can be anything - it could be a visual object like a window or a door frame, or it could be a branch of a tree that bends over the ground.
The frame can also be a bright color in which your theme is set. The frame will allow the title of your photo to be more important.
5. Repetitive patterns
Patterns work well as an image but are usually considered as the title of the image and not as a way to enhance something you want to capture. If you enjoy going out and taking pictures and have no particular theme in mind, then looking for patterns can be very rewarding.
Patterns are sometimes found in nature, such as how the leaves have patterns in them, or how the leaves form a pattern. But usually, you will find patterns made by human hand. You can even see patterns in everyday objects, e.g. a pile of store trollies or bicycles has been created.
Think of these devices as tools that you store in your toolbox. It is not possible to use all the tools in the same image - there is a good chance you will choose a tool that best suits the topic you are shooting.
"It doesn't matter what type of camera you use, but if you want to make your photos look professional, using these simple techniques will greatly enhance your photo effects."
