Taking photos of yourself with your phone? Record a video instead, striking all your poses. Then watch through the video and screen capture your favorite shots.
No tripod? Use a paper cup (or even better recycle a pringles can) by cutting 2 notches on the brim of the cup (on opposite sides) and bam! A tripod. Also, if using a pringles can, be sure to put something heavy at the bottom (like some rocks or something) to make sure it doesn’t tip over.
Photo Tip: Be Prepared
It was a beautiful evening to head out for a walk. I debated about taking my camera with me, and decided in the end to take it. While walking my usual route, I came across a carnival being set up. The bright, fun colors were a perfect contrast to the usual historical brick townhouses of my city. I was very glad I had decided to bring my camera.
A Photographer succeeds when the Photo is effective, NOT when it is liked or disliked!

How to Compose Photos with Impact Using Elements of Design All visual artists have a common goal of creating an image with impact. But unlike painters who start with a blank canvas and add to it, photographers start with a sometimes chaotic scene and must decide what to remove from it. Which parts of the scene should be included and which excluded to create the greatest impact? Part of your job as the photographer job is to bring order to the chaos by deciding how to arrange the elements in the scene in your camera’s frame. You cannot just hold up your camera and expect to make an impactful image. You have to evaluate the scene and discover what elements of design are there to work with and how you are going to use them to create your composition. There are visual clues to good composition all around you. Clues that will help you see with your photographer’s eye if you take the time to slow down and take notice of them. The elements of design are there, but sometimes you don’t notice them until you go looking specifically. That’s the key – you have to go looking for them. Once you start looking for a particular element of design, you will be surprised how often you will discover it in the world around you.

Photo Tip: Wait for the Light
During my last hike I came across an old bait shop. Because I love abandoned buildings I took a quick shot with my camera. But it was the middle of the day, and the light was pretty flat so the photo was uninspired.
I continued on with my exploring and when I came back to the bait shop the light had changed. It was later in the day and the sun was lower in the sky. The resulting photo is much better, the wood colors are warmer and the shadows are more interesting.
Remember, if your photos are uninspiring, wait for the light.
Photo Tip: Shoot After the Rain
Last winter I set out for a hike on a grey, overcast day. I took my camera, but wasn’t anticipating getting any good shots because of the flat light. When I got to the woods, I was pleasantly surprised to find that everything was still dripping and glistening from the early morning rain. I was able to get some great shots after all.
The next time it rains, get out there with your camera!
