FIX YOUR PIX—

Periodically I have found myself helping folks with their photography challenges. So, what better way than this blog to share picture taking tips from time to time. Here is one of several ways you can improve your photos regardless of how simple your camera might be:

Get up closer to your main subject!

Often folks will pose their subject nicely—say on the porch of the house as you see my son Brian in the bottom picture. Then they back up to include the entire house in the photo, causing their people subject to virtually disappear.

In the top picture we have “Gotten up closer” simply by bringing our subject into the right foreground and letting the house be the background. Now, we can see both very nicely.

Stay tuned for the next installment.
