Taking Photographs - Medion LIFE X44022 Mode D'emploi

• Give your pictures depth by including several levels in the picture, e.g. by selecting a
suitable foreground and/or background.
• Choose a picture format that matches the subject, e.g. towers and high buildings have
an even more impressive effect when taken in portrait format.
• Try to tell a story with your pictures; 4 or 5 pictures are often enough to turn
snapshots into a small story.
• Check the angle if the subject is lit from behind. Change your position to reduce the
background lighting.
• Experiment with different perspectives to create more interesting pictures for the
viewer.
• The tips about good photographs can also be applied to video recordings; but, in
addition, you also need to make sure that you pan the camera slowly and keep it
steady. If you pan too quickly, the video footage will be fuzzy and blurred. A tripod can
be also very helpful for video recordings.
