In this day and age, anyone with a digital camera can take good photos, right? Absolutely not. Most people can take good photos some of the time and, once in a while, they might well shoot one that could be termed a "great" photograph, but they can't do it consistently, and they can't do it to order. This book will show you how. No, THIS IS NOT A BOOK for professional photographers; it's not even a book for advanced amateurs, though some of those so-called advanced amateurs might well benefit from it. It's designed to quickly show beginning and intermediate photographers how to take better pictures. There are several key elements that must be present in a good photograph. This book explains what those key elements are, and how to incorporate them in all of your photos. How to take Better Photographs is a book for all those folks who love to take pictures, but just know that those pictures are not as good as they would like them to be; they know that's something is not quite right, and they would like to do better. Well... you certainly can do better. This booklet will show you how. Yes, you can do better, and you can do it quickly, as quickly as tomorrow. You can learn how to take better photos than you ever thought possible. This book will show you how; it offers some quick and simple tips for taking better photos; tips that you can start using immediately. I am a professional photojournalist. I shoot photographs for a living, every day, have done so for more than 30 years, and I've earned a good living from it. Very early on, my mentor - what a great guy - showed me the basics of good photography, the three critical ingredients that must be present in every good photograph. They are: 1. Good composition - if it's not pleasing to the eye, it's not pleasing 2. Acceptable focus (notice I didn't say perfect focus). 3. Perfect exposure - no blocked out shadows or blown highlights. This little booklet will show you how to accomplish these three things, almost instantly. Will it show you all there is to know about them? Nope, that would take a couple of volumes, but it will teach you just enough to vastly improve the quality of your photos.
