Make sure it’s securely attached, WRAPPED TWICE around your wrist
when you’re shooting.
Use the Camera Strap
Otherwise, wear the camera across your body, or on one shoulder with a
rucksack worn over the top.
This keeps the lens close to you and prevents theft.

Light Capturing the right amount of light creates the right mood in
your photos.
Think about how much light you want reflected in your
photos, the intensity of shadows you want to create.
HOWEVER, you must remember that light can also be a problem
if not properly dealt with. (OVEREXPOSURE, UNDEREXPOSURE)
Overexposed Photo
Underexposed Photo

Angle Changing the angle of your
photos can create more dramatic and impressive photos.
Ordinary photos are often taken in an angle that you would see if you are right there standing in
front of the subject or the place.
Try to adopt more interesting angles.
You can shoot from closer to the ground, above your subject, or at
an angle that is not normally seen.

Composition The right composition will allow you
to convey the message that you want to convey in your photograph,
as the composition is the key in helping the viewer grasp the meaning of the photograph.
The Rule of Thirds1. Break up a photo (virtually) into 9 parts.2. Pick 4 squares to bring your object into focus.3. Use also the four lines to position your photo.
The points of intersection are often the point of focus for the audience.
Important questions to ask yourself when using The Rule of Thirds:• What are the points of interest in this shot?• Where am I intentionally placing them?

for your photos. They help to emphasise the object of your photo and create a dramatic effect.
