Along its process, it presents the world in a new way. Techniques to achieve a good photographProper exposure Appropriate lightingHaving a message that's sent out through the imageAppropriate depth of field Play around with both orientations (portrait and landscape)How To Compose a Good PhotographRule of Thirds3492541275The rule of thirds divides an image into 9 segments, locating its "sweet spots" which are show by the white dots on the image to the left. These spots are believed to be the first factors that catches the eye. The theory of the Rule of Thirds is that capturing a photo within these sweet spots will create a more interesting composition. This is a method used by many photographers to make their images more pleasing to look at. Creative and Unique FramingFind inspiration from objects relating to the image being taken. For example, this wedding picture on the left. The photographer used the wedding ring as a frame to create a more effective and beautiful image. It emphasizes the meaning behind the photo. Zoom LengthConsider how much background is necessary in the desired image. Keep in mind that if too much of the background is included in the photograph, it may distract from the actual subject of the image. AngleComposing a good photograph requires creativity. Consider taking photos from different perspectives to attain that unique angle that'll make your images look better.Camera Modes (Canon Rebel T2I)SymbolsModeFunctionFull AutomaticCamera decides on the best setting for all of the components (ISO, exposure, etc) according to the image that's being taken.

Parts of a Camera (Canon Rebel T2I) ApertureControls the size of the hole which light goes throughMeasured in F-stops Small aperture = large depth of field, high f-stop, everything is in focusLarge aperture = shallow depth of field, low f-stop, certain parts appear in focus while the rest is blurryShutter SpeedShutter speed refers to light being permitted to enter the camera in a certain amoount of time. A higher shutter speed freezes motion while a lower shutter speed exaggerates motion.ExposureThere are 3 types of exposure:Overexposed - The image appears very bright or white which cancels out a lot of detail- Too much light was refelcted during the process of capturing the shotUnderexposed - Lacking light, the image appears to be very dark. Little detail is shownCorrectly Exposed - The lighting uses a combination of both light and dark, allowing details to be shown. ISO - It is a level of sensitivity of the camera to light. A lower ISO results to a clear image while a higher ISO results to a grainy image. When in doubt, turn the ISO setting to automatic. ................
