13 lessons about photography

After reading about the 13 lessons of photography I saw some things I knew and some things that I didn't know about before. Some of the things I already knew about photography were: experimenting, taking lots of pictures, holding the camera straight, the rule of thirds, and finding a point of interest. I thought the focal look was interesting because it talked about knowing how the work the focus and shutter so you can focus before taking the actual shot. I agreed with different modes for different situations because if it's an action picture it will come out alot better of you switch to your sports mode or change the mode of the camera if you're in the dark, too. Expose settings is another lesson I thought was helpful. In one of the lessons they talked about going on vacation and only taking pictures of buildings and places intstead of people in them pictures, I agreed with this lesson alot. I think it's important when you go on vacation or a new place that you don't just take pictures of scenery, but with your own travelers too. Finally, the other tip I thought was useful was to check your background. A background is part of a picture and it's important, by checking the background for clutter it helps you get a better picture.
