Day 6, Top 10 Tips for Great Pictures

Top 10 Tips for Great Pictures

The “10” were all wonderful recommendations for novice photographers such as myself. #2 Use a plain background, sounds so obvious but it’s easy to get caught up in the beauty of great scenery and the appeal of a busy backdrop. Kodak’s recommendation to “…force yourself to study the area surrounding your subject” is great advice. Not only can you avoid strange objects from emanating from your photo subject’s body parts (although this seems to be in informal photo vogue). Interestingly, you can apply this same principle to any and all action research projects you might find yourself leading. Getting familiar with all the “details” about your subject (s) and the area (setting of your study) is not only a good tip for great photography, it’s a great principle to follow in action research.
