History of Photography
The word photography comes from two ancient Greek words: photo, for "light," and graph, for "drawing."
"Drawing with light" is a way of describing photography.

Photography has become a powerful means of communication and a mode of visual expression that touches human life in many ways.
SNAPSHOT versus PHOTOGRAPH
Snapshots are casual record of everyday events while photographs are well thought pieces captured by a camera.

10 Tips for Better Photos
1. Hold It Steady
A problem with many photographs is that they're blurry. Avoid 'camera shake' by holding the camera steady. Use both hands, resting your elbows on your chest, or use a wall for support.
Relax: don't tense up. You're a marksman/woman holding a gun and it must be steady to shoot.
![Page 28: EPE 222 Photography](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022100220/5564a0ffd8b42a366c8b49c2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
2. Put The Sun Behind You
A photograph is all about light so always think of how the light is striking your subject. The best bet is to move around so that the sun is behind you and to one side.
This front lighting brings out color and shades, and the slight angle (side lighting) produces some shadow to indicate texture and form.
![Page 29: EPE 222 Photography](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022100220/5564a0ffd8b42a366c8b49c2/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
3. Get Closer
The best shots are simple so move closer and remove any clutter from the picture. If you look at most 'people' shots they don¹t show the whole body so you don't need to either.
Move close, fill the frame with just the face, or even overflow it. Give your shot some impact. Use a zoom to crop the image tighter.

4. Choose A Format
Which way you hold the camera affects what is emphasized in your shot. For tall things (Redwoods, Half Dome) a vertical format emphasize height.
Use a horizontal format to show the dramatic sweep of the mountains.

5. Include People
Photographs solely of landscape and rocks are enjoyable to take but often dull to look at.
Include some of your friends, companions, family, or even people passing by, to add human interest. If there's no one around, include yourself with the self-timer.
![Page 32: EPE 222 Photography](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022100220/5564a0ffd8b42a366c8b49c2/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
6. Consider Variety
You may take the greatest shots but if they're all the same type or style, they may be dull to look at.
Spice up your collection by adding variety. Include landscapes and people shots, close ups and wide angles, good weather and bad weather.

7. Add Depth
Depth is an important quality of good photographs. We want the viewer to think that they're not looking at a flat picture, but through a window, into a three-dimensional world.
Add pointers to assist the eye. If your subject is a distant mountain, add a person or a tree in the foreground. A wide angle lens can exaggerate this perspective.

8. Use Proportion
The beauty of an image is often in its proportions. A popular technique with artists is called the Rule of Thirds. Rule of Thirds.

9. Search For Details
It's always tempting to use a wide angle lens and 'get everything in'. However, this can be too much and you may loose the impact. Instead, zoom in with a longer lens and find some representative detail.
A shot of an entire sequoia tree just looks like a tree. But a shot of just the tree's wide base, with a person for scale, is more powerful.

10. Position The Horizon
Where you place the horizon in your shot affects what is emphasized.
To show the land, use a high horizon.
To show the sky, use a low horizon. Be creative.
