Over the past years, there have been a number of talents I wish I had the opportunity to learn. At the very top was the ability to learn how to take a beautiful photograph. Specifically, what are the elements that make one photo so much stronger than the other? I always say I wish the iPhone was around when my children were young to be able to quickly capture the moment, as I did not always have my camera ready. Over the years, I spoke to my friend Dena if she would be able to help me learn the basics of what a professional sees in their lens that I truly am missing in mine. When she announced that she had created a course and that it was made for iPhone users like myself, I was in. She challenged us to watch, listen, learn and then apply her tools with straightforward weekly homework. I began this course right as we were beginning to quarantine for a worldwide pandemic. In normal times, I would have driven to my favorite places to capture the perfect photo. What I realized was I could photograph the simplest of objects and truly apply what I learned. By photographing the inside contents of my refrigerator, I learned the rules of “Filling The Frame”. Normally I would have found a much more interesting subject, however, I truly learned the rules by creatively applying Dena’s teaching.
Is learning simple, practical tools to make your photos crisp, in focus, truly better? Then you have found the right website! I promised you will never look through your lens the same way again!
