technique by taking many pictures from the same location. Working withing these limitations

will make your shots more creative.

When shooting pictures in nature, do so with care. Take a moment to appreciate the scene,

as well as to make sure that you are leaving no traces. If you stumble across a breathtaking

Learn Digital Photography - Understanding Exposure and How it Works Consider getting

involved with a photography club, or shoot some pictures with a fellow photographer. Other

people who share your interests can provide you with great information, but try not to let

them influence the way you take your pictures. Compare your photos with your photo buddy

to see what different approaches each of you had towards the same subjects.

The ISO, aperture and shutter speed are an important part of photos so make sure you know

the combination that works best for you. These are the three features that drive the exposure

of the photographs you take. Except if you want to create a specific impression, overexposed

or underexposed pictures do not look good. Play around with these three settings to see how

they work together and which combination will create the most interesting shot.

As you advance in your photography skills and find that it is becoming a serious endeavor for

you, you will probably want to invest in a dSLR camera. This is a digital single-lens reflex

camera, which provides the best method for seeing your subject immediately as the photo is

taken. For larger images and more detailed photographs, a full frame digital single lens reflex

camera is the best choice.

Lots of people believe that taking pictures in bright sunshine creates the best images.

However, this isn't the case, because direct sunlight can ruin almost all photographs. Not

only does it cast awkward shadows and glaring, it also causes uneven highlights, and causes

your subjects to squint when facing the camera. Always pick early morning or later in the

evening to take photos outside.

Immediately after departing on a trip, begin snapping photographs. Don't limit yourself to the

actual location, but look for unique and interesting things as soon as you begin your journey.
