If you're finding that a lot of your pictures are coming out with the same kind of style and lacking something that you can't quite put your finger on, try trying something new. There are an infinite number of ways to get a good shot on any one item or place. In this article, we'll supply you with a few suggestions that can help change the kind of images you end up with.
An important tip to consider with photography is that while black and white photography can look artistic at times, you do not want to overdo it. This is important because those who are involved with photography will spot this from a mile away and will be sure to let you know if they sense anything that seems forced.
Do not trust the appearance of the photo on your camera's LCD screen. Any picture that you take and look at on a two or three inch screen is going to look sharp. If you are taking a shot that you do not want to take the chance of messing up, zoom in and look closely at every pixel to make sure that it is as you want it to be.
Positioning of the subject can make the difference between a good photo and a great photo. The subject should rarely be dead center in the middle of the photo. When taking your photo, try to position the subject in the upper, or lower third of the image. This effect works best when there is a horizon in the distance.
Now that you have a handful of new ideas to help improve your photography style, have fun and try to see how many of them work for you. You may find that all of them improve your pictures, or you may find that some just don't add what you're looking for to the style they already have. Most importantly, just have fun!
