#Light This topic covers every aspect of image making, as you appreciate without “light” you only have “black”. It is so important to be able to see and read available light. If you are taking a #portrait watch how the light gives depth to your subject as it spills over to the cheek, or how it gives a flatter look when the light is full on the face. Learn to see light, read light, and use it to your advantage, it can isolate, it can be used to backlight or profile your subject and light can be cold or lovely and warm. Look for Light whether it’s natural or manmade and use it to its best advantage. #photography #Lighting #portraits #landscapes #images

No matter what the subject, it is how you interpret it with your image that is important.

Framing is used to enhance and highlight your subject and has been presented in art since Michaelangelo’s time.

Any mobile device, phone or tablet is capable of doing this. The images here show what is referred to rule of 1/3rds. Do you agree it makes more impact to the image? These are further examples of using the ‘rule of thirds’ to enhance what could be an ordinary image
