A new blog to check out!

I am really starting to enjoy this website because I am able to reach out and see photos taken by other photographers and every time I look at someone’s photographs I am always amazed at their creativity. A blog that I’ve been able to observe who has such great talent is the blog named “Connecting beyond” the author of this blog is named AmyRose and her photography is at another level of creativity. Her attention to detail is so amazing a few of her posts that I really enjoyed reading one being titled “Transcendental” the flowers on this post it seems as though you can see every little bit of it instead of just the flower itself. On this post she took a photo of one of my favorite flowers called the Bleeding heart and because the photo is taken so well you can see every little tiny detail that the beautiful flower comes with.

Another post of hers that I really enjoyed reading is titled “Ode to Mother“ and in this post she has taken photos of flowers and plants that have been covered in ice and just by looking at it not only do the objects look frozen because the photos are taken so well it feels as though the time is frozen as well. With each photo I can see every little detail of the ice that has entangled itself around the leaves and plants.

As a beginner I like to think that I am continuing to learn to focus on the detail of my photos so that I can give my viewers a chance to create a story in their minds when they look at my photos. Just like I am able to when I look at Amy Rose’s photography.

I definitely suggest everyone to check out her photography and to follow her on her blog which is

Skills to help improve: Photography!

Posted on March 3, 2019 by colleenberry98

Skill #1: To help with blurry photos! Use manual focus to help improve the details in your photo. First you have to figure out what you want focus on once you found it press on the shutter button halfway. This will help tell your reader what you are trying to focus on and where you want their eyes to be drawn to.

Skill #2:To help with uninspired composition! When trying a composition technique you should remember the rule of thirds this will help your photos pop! In order to make something in the rule of thirds break down the photo into 9 equal parts and put a part of your image into each one. This will help create a new captivating photo.

Skill #3: To help with Sheepish Subjects! For this skill you will need to photograph the person, or thing at eye level even if that means getting low to get a picture of a child walking down the side walk or a pet sitting on the ground. But that also means that if you have a taller subject then you might have to get something like a foot stool or a ladder to help get a photo of it.

Skill #4:To help with washed out photos! Use as much natural light as possible! Even if you are inside look for a window that brings in the most light! And try to take photos during Golden hour to really get that “golden effect!”

I hope you have enjoyed these skills that myself as a beginner photographer have learned with the help of Master your photo skills with these 6 easy tricks
