10 tips for shooting photgraphy

http://www.exposureguide.com/top-10-digital-photography-tips.htm

I know it may seem like I’m doing this all on one day as if I have only researched this today or something I assure I’m merely typing research work built up from nearly 2 months of work. I started to realise yesterday how had made some notes and links to websites I had read and not typed anything up for them, I realised that before getting too far behind on work I have been looking at I best do some typing it up.

This link is basically 10 interesting tips for taking good photos. Instead of covering all 10 features I thought it best to cover what I had taken from the page itself. One of the more interesting things I took from the page was about using a polarizing filter to lessen glare from metal, lights, water, reflections and such. I think looking at the differences between the two images the filter works so well for bringing out colours and lessening the burned out affects the sun can I have. The other thing was composing shots in thirds, this is something I hadn’t really considered until getting my DSLR which has multiple grids you can chose I never really understood the full use of it, I mainly considered it for positioning the subjects rather then also using it add depth of field and chose a point of focus rather than focusing the image in the centre. In terms of understanding how to avoid camera shake this is something I had already read about in terms of using a shutter speed no smaller than the focal length of the lens used. A               really good point made was the sunny 16 rule which I had never read about before until I read the article and I think it’s interesting rule to start with when shooting in the sun. Shooting on f16 with a 100 ISO and on 1/100^th of a second is a good place to start with in terms of shooting in the sun. I think applying this rule and then adjusting the settings using my light meter and own eye to create an interesting shot is the best way to start shooting day photography.  Also a good feature in the article is using a long depth of field and a wide angle lens for shooting landscape photography on. As well as some other like not using  flash indoors learning the best ISO to attain bright and less grainy photos as well as panning with action shots which I found particularly interesting instead of worrying about action shots being blurred this is an interesting way to look at action photos.
