Introducing Photobird’s Simple Guide to Great Photos. You can find this quick guide in the side column on the Photobird Daily front page.
It’s simple really:
I wrote the following in the Photobird Daily article “Composition Is Key“:
“Composition is the key element for great photos. If everything else with your photo is not correct — such as bad color, poor lighting, image noise, and imperfect subjects — but your photo is well composed, you can usually fix the other things and still come out with a good photo. If the composition isn’t perfect right out of the camera, you can often crop the photo to get the desired composition, but you must start off with a reasonably well-composed photo.”
In the article, you’ll find links to nearly two dozen helpful articles that have appeared in the Photobird Daily that can help you learn more about composition, or refresh your skills if you’re a professional.
2. Read Understanding Exposure, by Bryan Peterson.
Understanding Exposure gets a lot of attention here in the Photobird Daily because it’s a great photography book; it’s helpful for beginners as well as experienced photographers. I wrote about the book at this link here. And the book is available as one of the prizes in the Photobird Photo Contest. Of course, Understanding Exposure is also available at Amazon.com. (Click then purchase anything at Amazon.com to help us publish the Photobird Daily and the Photobird Learning Center — at no additional cost to you. Thank you!)
