Rule Of Thirds

By Samuel Burdeen | March 16, 2018 | Comments 0 Comment

I had to take photos using the rule of thirds. What worked was putting the main subject of my photos on one third if the whole photo so people notice it. What didn’t work was taking a whole picture of one thing because there was nothing else to focus on. My thoughts on the rule of thirds in the beginning was that it was not important but after the project I know that the rule of thirds helps the photo stand out. I used the lines in the photos to separate the important subjects in the photo apart from each other so people notice every aspect of the photo.

White Background

The way we took our photos was with a white background and changing the settings of the ISO, Shutter speed, and F-Stop. Some of the photos did not need to be edited since they were fine the way they were. What worked was shining a bright light at the background when we took the picture. For the white background, we used a different shutter speed than the black background. The black background was much easier than the white background. What didn’t work was standing to close to the white background because we could see the shadow of the person.
