7 Tips For Better Photos in Your Own Backyard
David JohnstonDescription
Looking for new photo ops? How about your own backyard? In this premium video, Outdoor Photography Guide’s David Johnston gives you 7 tips for backyard shooting:
1. Use just one lens to narrow your choice of photo ops.
2. The “one subject” challenge, focusing on a flower, a tree, or an insect.
3. David suggests searching for repetition, for instance, a clump of wildflowers or forest fern patterns.
4. Use only low perspective, your camera angle low to the ground.
5. Try focusing on only shapes – ovals and angles.
6. Look for abstracts like water reflections.
7. Set a timer for how long you spend in one location.
