techniques essay

The three that I chose to write about is finding fresh angles, using focal points in photography, working the lines in your photography and the reason I pick these because these are the most interested ones that I like and the ones that will help me the most.

I’m much more likely to get a wow factor using the first one in my opinion the first picture is more interested than the second one. Although it’s by no means a brilliant shot for other reason giving an accurate picture of how big it is.

Once you’ve identified a point of interested or focal point you then should ask your self how can enhance it. A focal point can be virtually anything ranging from a person to build a mountain to a flower. Learn to use depth of field to blur out other aspects in front or behind your focal point making your focal point large is not the only way to make it prominent but it definitely can help.

Learning how to use lines in photography doesn’t just happen it takes time and practice to become good at it. A good way to practice is to go back through older images that you taken and lines that worked well and those that didn’t. Also ask your self whether the line from any interested patterns that you might be able to accentuate to add a future layer of interested to the shot. Over the next few posts I’ll consider three types of lines, horizontal, vertical, and diagonal each one has a different impact upon a photograph and should be looked for as you fame your shots.

The reason why I chose these three techniques because I think these are the most important ones to these and me are going to make me a better photography in the future.
