Memorable pictures are the ones that truly count and anyone can take them. Getting familiar with the overload of camera settings, equipment and terminology is a process that comes with experience. Photography is an art that, like many others, takes time to master. There are many factors and techniques that play into taking pictures.

Direct light is based on the size and distance of the light source. Smaller light sources that are further away from the photo’s subject will create sharper, more intense shadows. On the other hand, diffused light covers the subject in a more full, blended way. Shadows appear more bright in diffused light. This lighting is usually ideal for portraits of people with uneven skin. A camera’s aperture, shutter speed and ISO also influence the lighting of an image. Aperture and shutter speed can be confusing at first as they function in opposite directions. The larger the aperture (measured in f-stops) is, the brighter a picture will be. The size of the aperture is the size of the hole which lets light into the lens. Shutter speed is how quickly the camera lens is exposed to that light. The higher the shutter speed, the darker the picture will be. Like the aperture, the higher the ISO, the brighter the picture will be. The downfall to a higher ISO is that the image will appear more grainy. It is the photographer’s job to balance natural lighting with the camera’s settings in order to set a lighting that will make the picture look best.
Aside from all of the technical and analytical factors in photography, the last point to make is simply taking a lot of pictures. When asked “how many keepers do you get from a game?”, professional photographer Scott Kelby answered “I get that question fairly

A good photographer knows how to use some little tricks to create a pretty scene, and the good photographer knows how to use small techniques to build the mood for the photo. Pretty scene and mood of the photo together create the meaning for the photo, and they allure people to step into the photo. Some of the techniques that used to make a photo looks pretty is the lighting of the photo, and the angle of that photo. And some tricks that are used to create a photo are models, sand, fake fog, etc. Photographer just needs a little bit of tricks to create a deep meaning of the photo.
While others claim that photography captures the inner soul of a person, or deliberately defines it as painting or writing with light, but in my case, it is just simply a newfound love hobby.

To be a good photographer, one must have certain skills. First, they must be creative. If every photographer took pictures of the same things, no one would want to buy their work. It would get very boring very fast. To help with this, try thinking outside the box. What have people taken the least pictures of? What have people taken no pictures of? This will help a thriving photographer advance in their work (“Job description 1”).

Being in the right place at the right time'; 'the decisive moment'; 'getting in close' - in the popular imagination this is photography at its best, a medium that makes viewers eyewitnesses to the moments when history is made. Just how good is photography at making sense of what it records? Is getting in close always better than standing back, and how decisive are the moments that photographers risk their necks to capture?
What is a photograph? The simplicity of taking a photograph leads many to ponder its artistic value. Yet, it is undeniable that there are some photos that cause an emotional reaction deeper than simply observing a recorded point in time. Surely, there are photographs that cause more reaction than some modern art pieces. There seems to be two types of photographs. The first classification is the ‘time capture’ photo – an image with the sole purpose of recording a particular event or point in time. The second nature of a photo carries a ‘deeper meaning,’ which has the ability to change the observer’s mood and cause a reaction. But what distinguishes these two varieties? There are a
