Frame Your Shot


Framing your shot is like creating a box or frame around your image to tell the viewer where to look.  It is NOT a literal picture frame, but can be made by shooting through things.  This could be leaves, architecture, other people, in between things, getting low on the ground, getting high above the subject.  Just make sure there is a frame around your main subject to lead our eye to it.










Macro Photography

Macro or Up-Close photography is a way of getting as close as you can to your subject and still getting a clear and focused center of interest.  The background will be blurry due to the extreme depth of field because you will be widening your Aperture.  

In order to take Macro shots, you will need to make sure you are on Macro Mode by pushing the tulip button on your camera.  Below is a slideshow of macro photography examples.

Another Sequence Example













Photographic Sequence

A set or series of photographs that are intended to tell a story or evoke a series of emotions in the viewer.  
Your sequence must be between 3 - 6 shots in order to tell your story.
