PHOTO TECHNIQUES ESSAY

I choose three techniques that could help me in digital photography, FINDING FRESH ANGLES TO SHOOT, FRAMING YOUR SHOTS, and GETTING BACKGROUNDS RIGHT. The reason why I choose these three techniques is because they help me learn a lot about the camera and framing, finding the right angles and

understanding how to get the right background for my image. These three techniques could help me in class because I could take better pictures by finding the right angles and backgrounds.

My first technique is Finding Fresh Angles To Shoot From. The reason why I choose this technique is because it tells me a lot about finding the right angle when taking a picture. This technique is consists of changing the angle how you shoot because it impact the feelings of size of your subject, lying or crouching in front of your image, and going on top of the image your shooting.

My second technique is framing your shot. The reason why I choose Framing Your shot as my second technique is because framing your shot gives me the photo context. This technique is consists of intriguing you viewer, leading the eye towards your main focal point, and giving images a sense of depth and focal point.

The last technique that I choose was Getting Background Right. The reason why I choose this technique is because when your shooting an image you need to understand how to have a good background. This technique is consists of using aperture to blur background, using focal length to blur backgrounds, place subject in front to open spaces, and fill your frame with your subject.

In conclusion by me using these three techniques in digital photography they will help me become a better digital photographer.
