Description
- The instructor introduces the class and discusses what will be covered in the lessons that follow.
- Being conscious about what you are shooting is key to making images, not just taking pictures.
- You want your viewer to connect with your subject and that has a lot to do with the subject’s eyes as well as your eye level.
- We can’t pose wildlife, but we can take an active role in positioning ourselves for the best composition.
- You’ve got to know your subject to be able to find them and show them at their best.
- Capturing the subject in its environment provides a sense of place and creates a more compelling image.
- Creating separation between the subject and other elements provides a clearer view of the subject and provides a sense of depth and dimension.
- It is important to provide some space in front of your subject in the direction they are moving.
- Compositional guidelines are basic, but can be a powerful tool for creating stronger compositions.
- It is vital to take on the role of ambassador and advocate for the wildlife you are photographing.
