Photo on Canvas Tip #1: Change the Angle<\/h2>\n

\"Easy<\/p>\n

Are your photos looking a bit dull? Nothing wrong with the composition, everything in focus, lighting handled well, but you still yawn when you look at them? Ask yourself if you\u2019re shooting every photo from dead centre, or every photo from exactly the same angle because you\u2019re conscious of the \u2018rule of thirds\u2019 so you always shift to one side?<\/p>\n

One easy way to make your photos more interesting is to change up the angle. Get low to the ground for street shots, or higher up for landscapes. Tilt the camera for a canted \u2018Dutch\u2019 angle \u2013 whatever feels interesting. The best part about this tip is you can still hedge the risk by taking a \u201bnormal\u2019 or typical shot first, so you have coverage in case your more experimental photos don\u2019t work out.<\/p>\n

Photo on Canvas Tip #2: Play with the Foreground<\/h2>\n

\"Easy<\/p>\n

Another easy way to make your photos more interesting is to add an aspect of depth. Often photographers just starting out will have the focal point of their photo be right there, obvious \u2013 and a bit flat. Instead, scout the area and think about framing the shot so something else is right up in \u2018front\u2019 of the frame while your true subject is further away. This immediately gives the eye a sense of distance, making a flat, two-dimensional image seem three-dimensional because of the reference point you’ve added to the photo.<\/p>\n

The additional benefit of this is to make the viewer work just a little harder to see what\u2019s going on, because their eyes will be pulled immediately to the foreground, and only then will they shift their focus to see the true subject of the photo. This creates an air of mystery and kinetic, dynamic motion in the picture that can\u2019t fail.<\/p>\n

Simple ideas, but so often we\u2019re so focused on the complexity of art we forget the simple techniques that work so well.
