Easy photography tips > Take pictures that you want to frame Rule of Thirds

Angles

When taking pictures, break the photo into thirds, both horizontally and vertically.

Try to have an object of interest where these lines meet. Your eyes usually fall on these points first when looking at any photo.

Try finding unique angles to take a shot; not just straight on and centered. By doing this, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see your subject in a new way!

Perspective

Look for objects to be in the foreground and background.

Play with the focus of each object. Which do you like better in focus?

Kawamura Center offers unique classes at affordable prices. Call for details: (703) 806-4655.
