Tips for Making Your Summer Vacation Pictures GREAT

Written by Sherry on June 28th, 2010

1) Make each picture have a clear subject or theme; let the photograph tell a story

2) Give emphasis to your subject; focus the attention of the viewer to the subject
     in the photograph:
     * Allow the subject of the photograph to fill the frame, OR
     * Make the photograph more interesting by placing the subject off to
      one side (approx. 1/3 to the side)
     * Find a way to frame your subject; trees, arches, windows, etc. can be
     great framing tools.  The example is a picture that I took last year at the Phoenix Botanical Gardens
     Chihuly Exhibit
     * Give your (people) subjects something to do with their hands; move away from the traditional hands 
     at the side pose

3) Simplify each photo; eliminate distractions that will take the focus away from the subject, i.e., trash cans, signs, people, cars
