OUTDOOR PHOTOGRAPHY

Outdoor Photography is an art form where Photographers use their camera outside our world to make us see life in a different way, feel emotions, and record stories and events which are

beyond our reach.

There are three basic styles of outdoor photography and they are:• Landscape• Portrait• Documentary

LANDSCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY Landscape is a photograph of the environment. It could be the forest, mountains, oceans, or your backyard. Ansel Adams is a famous landscape photographer. Here is one of his images.

WHAT IS LANDSCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY?

Different Portrait Styles

Portraits can be the whole body

Boy and Car, New York City - Jerome Liebling, 1949

A portrait photograph is a picture of a person or animal that shows an emotional connection.

DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY

Documentary photography presents facts without changing anything. Good documentary photographs make you wonder what the story is behind the photograph.

THINK ABOUT THE STORIES IN THESE PHOTOS

Documentary photographs can be either landscape or portrait.

PORTRAIT LANDSCAPE

Contrast

• Contrast refers to the brightness between the light and shadow areas of a picture.

Does it have contrast? What direction is the light on the trees coming from?

Rule of Thirds• A photo is more

interesting if the subject is NOT directly in the center. Try placing your subject 1/3 to the left or right, or 1/3 from top or bottom.

One photograph uses rule of thirds and the other uses central focus.

Central Focus Rule of Thirds

Here, the picture which uses rule of thirds looks more interesting than the central focus one. It gives more life to the photo.

Point of View• Try selecting an unusual point of view.

photography.
