- Do take note of the sun when shooting outdoors. One of the nightmares of photography is an underexposed or overexposed photo and this can spring from the bad use of light. Don't take a picture of someone who has his back on the sun as you will most likely get a silhouette in the photograph. Of course, if you do not intend it to be a silhouette, then you have to get rid of this position. On the other hand, your photo can also be overexposed if your subject is facing direct light, so make sure you have enough balance of light, and you have the proper positioning as well.?
- Don't ruin your photos with red eyes. Especially if you take pictures during the night or in places with low light, you may get a red-eyed subject when you use you camera's flash. One tip to help you in taking digital photos without the red-eye effect, use the red-eye reduction function that comes with most of the cameras today. You can also instruct your subject not to look directly into the lens so that their eyes won't reflect on the lens, producing the red eye. Of course, find a place with good lighting if that is possible as well.?
These are just a few things to keep in mind in taking digital photos, and remember as well that there are still other important tips that you have to take note too. When you have mastered these tips, you will surely be starting to take better photos over time.
