Introduction to Photography

In this we discuss about the Tips and Techniques for improvement your Captures!

PHOTOGRAPHY Can be considered both an art and a science.

  • Photography is an art because it's beauty is subjective.
  • Photography is Science because it's basic principles are Physics, that govern success.

EXPOSURE

1. STOPS:
  • The amount of light that stricks the film is measured in STOPS and is also known as exposure value (Ev).
  • A difference of 1 stop is a doubling or halving of the light making the image.
  • A stop is used to measure the differences of Ev of Appurtures and Shutter Speeds.
  • "FAST" means the camera can expose a photo quickly.


2. SHUTTER-SPEED:

Shutter-Speed

  • Controls the amount of time the SHUTTER of the curtain is open.
  • SHUTTER-SPEED is measured in fraction of seconds.
  • Depending on the device it may show the SHUTTER-SPEED without the numerator i.e., 250 instead of 1/250.
3. APERTURE:
Aperture

  • Aperture is the size of the hole of the diaphragm that allows the light into the camera.
  • The larger the hole, the more light enters the camera in a given time.
  • Aperture values (Av) are measured using F-STOPS shown as f / # (i.e., f / 4).
4. LIGHTING:
  • Lighting is the essential ingredients of the photos.
  • One of the skills that seperates photographers from snap shooters is the ability to solve the lighting problems.
  • In general there are two primary factors to consider for light: DIRECTION AND COLOR.


COMPOSITIONS

1. LENSES:
  • The length of a lens is measured in millimetres (mm).
  • Low numbers are considered wide lenses, while high numbers are considered as long lenses.
  • Human eyesight is equivalent to about 50mm.
2. FRAMING:
  • Framing is using a foreground object to FRAME the subject of the photo.

  • The frame should be appropriate to the subject.
  • The frame should have it's own aesthetic value.
  • Render the frame sharply, or blur it away.

What is the RULE OF THIRD - Tips And Techniques

Image
In this we discuss about the RULE OF THIRD in Photography in detail. The Rule Of Thirds  Basically, this rule is a compositional guide that divides the image into vertical and horizontal thirds, means three horizontal lines along with three vertical lines, thus forming a grid. According to this rule, if you place the elements you want to photograph on the lines or intersections, the final image will have a greater impact and you will achieve better compositions. Target is placed in a junction The Rule Of Thirds states that when composing your photo, place the centre of interest at a junction of the lines that trisects the image. Also, when composing landscape shots, the horizon line should be on one the intersecting lines. IMPORTENCE It helps draw the viewer's eye into the image and places more emphasis on the subject. Ideally, the empty space that's left should be in the direction the subject is looking or heading into. (Though the rule of ...
