Background
Use a simple background — For portraits and other
pictures with people, avoid having your subject in front of
a cluttered, complex background that may distract
attention from the subject. Move the camera or the
subject when these conditions cannot be met. Move the
camera closer to the object to take clearer portraits.
Depth
When taking pictures of landscapes, add depth to your
pictures by placing objects in the foreground. However, if
the foreground object is too close to the camera, it may
be blurred.
Lighting conditions
Changing the source, amount, and direction of light can
change photographs dramatically. Here are some typical
lighting conditions:
• Light source behind the subject — Avoid placing your
subject in front of a strong light source. If the light
source is behind the subject or visible in the display,
the resulting picture may have weak contrast, may be
too dark, and may contain unwanted lighting effects.
You can use the flash to add more lighting to shadows.
See "Flash", on page 11.
• Sidelit subject — Strong side light gives a dramatic
effect but may be too harsh, resulting in too much
contrast.
• Light source in front of the subject — Harsh sunlight
may cause the subjects to squint their eyes. The
contrast may also be too high.
• Optimal lighting — Found in situations where there is
plenty of diffused, soft light available; for example, on
a bright, partially cloudy day or on a sunny day in the
shadow of trees.
