Can one take the perfect photo and what would it look like? This conceptual topic is rather subjective with part proven technique, part aesthetic sensibility and part gut instinct.
Before you shoot, think for a second about what you are trying to say visually. There was a reason you reached for that camera, and what was it?
I discuss on the podcast and traveloguecreator.com these points to improve your odds of getting a great image.
What is the message? Where is the main point of interest? What kind of camera settings – shutter, aperture, ISO? What angle, lens perspective to use? How do I crop, is it a horizontal, vertical? What’s happening with the light, shadows, do I need a flash? How do I work the composition of colour, shape, lines, people, buildings…? Filters or effects, now or in the computer?And there is a free PDF handout to supplement this info even further on the site.
