Photo composition Tip # 4


We are going to continue to discuss framing today.........


One of the common problems with many shot's is that the object is not captured well due to the object not filling the frame...... there are several way's to obtain this which we will go into details with in another entry. But simply, if you want to photograph a soccer player kicking the ball, the photo will be much more effective if only the soccer player and ball are in the shot, rather than the entire field, 2 teams etc! It will be a far more dramatic shot with great details if it fills the frame. Sounds simple, but this small change makes a HUGE difference to your shot's!


This photo I took, I wanted to capture the face details and expression, so instead of doing a full body shot, I filled the frame with the object I was after - predominantly the face and only the face! It has allowed the details like the eyeleashes, lips etc to beam. Have fun practising.....
