Hi, I wanted to elaborate on my previous post. Taking the picture is the first step in getting better images. Once you have taken the first image take it again but differently. Let me demonstrate using my peanut butter, jelly and pickle jars.
As the collage illustrates: the subject of the image never changed; just the camera setting and the camera angle was adjusted. I had changed the camera setting from ‘photo’ to ‘portrait’ and brought the phone down. By making these two simple changes, the first image is different from the second picture. Now I can choose between the two for the one I like better. Without the first, a moment of time would never have been captured. The second image offers a different perspective.
That PB&J was really good. Tuesday I had to have another! Take a look at the below set of images. Same subject but each picture taken at a different distance and angle.
I did add the glass of milk and the loaf of bread to my Tuesday’s lunch subject!
Don’t be hesitant to take that shot. The available storage on the phone can handle the pictures you take. After taking the shot, or two or maybe three, you can always delete the ones you like the least. Main thing is, you have the one or two saved memories to look at tomorrow, next month or whenever.
Just about any object can be interesting and fun. IMO, the PB&J is not something you would want to take a picture of! But in this post, I think I did a fabulous job of showing how good they can look in a picture! Have fun with your phone camera. You just might be surprised and amazed at what you get.
Just take the shot and take it again!!
Take Care. Best wishes, Debra
PS. If you are wondering; yes PB&J was my Wednesday lunch too!! 🙂
