Forest Photography


Observe the image
    Look through the camera to observe the two-dimensional image. See what's in it and what is not.
    Remember that what you see in the view finder is what the image will be, not what you see with
    your eyes. 
Get Close
    Turn the camera on its side if what you are capturing is better fit in a vertical angle. Fill the frame
    with what is interesting to you. 
New Perspective
     Think how you would see things if you were an animal, or a bird. Get low to the ground and look
     up or high in the air and look down. See the view in new eyes. This can result in more creative
     images. 
Focus
      Make sure your photograph is in sharp focus. Look for every little detail before taking the shot.
See the Light
    The sunlight always changes from early morning to late evening. These two times are very beautiful
    when taking a picture because the light becomes warmer and casts long shadows. When light is set
    on an object from the side, it can look three-dimensional. 
Colors
    Let color be a guide in the development of the images composition. It is best to pick out the most
    colorful part of your subject. 
Tell A Story
    Make your photo about something that is happening. EX: wind blowing across a field. Photographic
    art can be a series of pictures that show change. 
Exposure
  If you can adjust the exposure manually, briefly point your camera at the most important part of your
  photograph. Although some modern cameras can set the exposure by itself, it can sometimes be
  wrong. It can make your image to dark or to light.
Camera Steady
   Use a tripod to keep your camera from moving or shaking. You can also hold the camera steady
   against a tree or sit it on wood. 
Play with the Controls
   Since many cameras today are automatic, switch to manual mode and adjust the aperture and shurtter
   speed. Experiment with it and see what beautiful pictures you can capture.
