II. The 11 Tips for Beginner Photographers


A Post By: Darren Rowse

submitted by CSS from www.heretocreate.com

As a new photographer, these are some of the ideas that have helped get me going. Update:
Also check out our Digital Photography Tips for Beginners Page.

1. Don’t go crazy buying the most expensive equipment right away.

2. Consider a tripod.
On the other hand, an inexpensive tripod is worth getting, especially if you have shaky
hands like mine. When I got a tripod, my satisfaction with my shots skyrocketed. For even more stability, use
your camera’s timer function with a tripod (read our introduction to tripods).

3. Keep your camera with you all the time.


Photo ops often come when you least expect it. If you can keep your equipment relatively simple – just a small
camera bag and a tripod – you might be able to take advantage of some of those unexpected opportunities. Or, if
your phone has a camera, use it to take “notes” on scenes you’d like to return to with your regular camera.

4. Make a list of shots you’d like to get.

For those times you can’t carry your camera around, keep a small notebook to jot down places you’d like to
come back and photograph. Make sure to note any important details, like the lighting, so you can come back at
the same time of day or when the weather’s right. If you don’t want to carry a notebook, send yourself an email
using your cell phone with Jott.com.

5. Don’t overlook mundane subjects for photography.


You might not see anything interesting to photograph in your living room or your backyard, but try looking at
familiar surroundings with fresh eyes. You might catch an interesting trick of the light or find some unexpected
wildflowers in your yard. Often a simple subject makes the best shot.

6. Enjoy the learning process.


The best part of having a hobby like photography is never running out of things to learn. Inspiration is all around
you. Look at everything with the eyes of a photographer and you’ll see opportunities you never noticed before.

7. Take advantage of free resources to learn.


Browse through Flickr or websites like the GIMP a try.

8. Experiment with your camera’s settings.


Your point and shoot may be more flexible and powerful than you know. Read the manual for help deciphering
all those little symbols. As you explore, try shooting your subjects with multiple settings to learn what effects
you like. When you’re looking at your photos on a computer, you can check the EXIF data (usually in the file’s
properties) to recall the settings you used.

9. Learn the basic rules.


The amount of information about photography online can be overwhelming. Start with a few articles on
composition. Be open to what more experienced photographers have to say about technique. You have to know
the rules before you can break them.

10. Take photos regularly.


Try to photograph something every day. If you can’t do that, make sure you take time to practice regularly, so
you don’t forget what you’ve learned. An excellent way to motivate you is by doing the weekly assignments in
the DPS Forum.

11. Don’t be afraid to experiment.


If you’re using a digital camera, the cost of errors is free. Go crazy – you might end up with something you like.
You’ll certainly learn a lot in the process.

III. How to prepare a good slide presentation in PowerPoint?

1. Keep it Simple. PowerPoint uses slides with a horizontal or “Landscape” orientation. ...
2. Limit bullet points & text. ...
3. Limit transitions & builds (animation) ...
4. Use high-quality graphics. ...
5. Have a visual theme, but avoid using PowerPoint templates. ...
6. Use appropriate charts. ...
7. Use color well. ...
8. Choose your fonts well.

IV. Brochures share a lot of information about a particular topic in a small space that is easy to
read, which makes them a perfect way to present a project for school. A brochure is made
from a regular-sized piece of paper that has been folded into equal thirds to make six
panels.
