Tips for better pictures
• Move close enough to your subject so
it fills the viewfinder but not closer
than 2 ft (0.6 m).
• Take pictures at the subject's level.
Kneel down to take pictures of children
and pets.
• Hold your camera vertically to capture
tall, narrow subjects, such as
a waterfall, skyscraper, or a single person.
• Add interest to your picture by framing
it with a tree branch, a window, or
even the rails of a fence.
• Keep the sun behind you. This provides
the best subject illumination.
• Stand at an angle to shiny surfaces
like windows or mirrors to avoid flash
reflection and bright spots in your
pictures.
• Turn on all room lights and have your
subject look at the red-eye-reduction
light to reduce red eyes in flash
pictures.
