Composing Photos, Making Decisions

The most interesting aspect of photography is that you are able to make decisions that greatly impact the result.

Direct sunlight is the surest way to create an uninteresting picture. Try sunrise or sunset instead.

Black and white negatives have survived centuries. The stable base outlasts every other platform including colour film and digital.

The strength of this image lies not the subject matter, but in how it is rendered with as few colours as possible.

Automatic focusing systems, such as those found on digital cameras and smartphones, have trouble producing the bokeh effect.
