Leading Lines.



Using lines in photography is another tool you can apply to make your pictures worlds better. What i mean by using lines is seeing lines either physical or implied and using them to your advantage. You usually wont want a line to lead to the center of your pciture most time you want it to lead out or to the subject of your photograph.

Light.



Light is the medium of witch a photographer works, without light there would be no photography, witch makes learning where to place a light sorce for the maximum effect a critical skill in photography. Light can be used to create many diffrent moods. Low light can imply a sense of darkness or fear bright light can create a happy nice color feel its all how you minipulate your sorce. For example by placing your light sorce difrectly behind something you can create black silouets.

Practice using light in diffrent ways get try to form yor own style of photography.

Framing!



This is lesson 2 of photography 101. Framing your pictures with natural frames gives your photo a sense of composition and completeness. framing your subject also tends to draw most if not all of your attention to your subject, witch is your ultimate goal so horray for framing.

Notice how the tree appears to to wraping around the old barn witch differs your ee from anything else in the pictures and causes you to focus on the subject.

Find natural frames for your photography add alot to your pictures and is a very good thing to learn.

The Rule Of Thirds!


Hello again, Iv come up with a plan to try and teach a basic crash course in photografic composition to anyone who reads this blogg. There are alot of rules of composition that should be followed but can be broken, one of the most important is the rule of thirds. The idea behind the rule of thirds is not to just slap your subject right in the center of your photograph, some times you can but this is mostly reserved for portraits or photos with good symetry. Witch will be covered in a later post. Here is a sample image of a bracketed of pictures in thirds.
When you place your subject using the rule of thirds it makes your photography more intresting and more technically sound.
