Rules of photography notes


Depth of Field (shallow and wide)

Plays a role in pictures where it comes from and intensity seems how right or low it can be- Light (angle and intensity)

The absence of light (no light going some place) - Shadows

To soften or scatter the light- Diffusion

light, dark, or somewhere in the middle. Too light too dark or just right. Exposure

How big or small the opening is in the lens. The smaller the number the more open it is, big opening shallow depth of field, small opening wide depth of field. - Aperture (f-stop)

How fast the mirror inside opens and closes in the camera- Shutter speed

The sensor thats inside the camera and how sensitive the sensor is to light. When increased you also increase grain. -ISO

Lens
Telephoto- allows you to zoom in and get closer to your subject.
Prime- Don't zoom at all, are fixed. Require you to move and be a better photographer. 
Wide angle- Take a wide angle picture. 


Timeliness- When was the picture taken.
Proximity- How close the event happened.
Conflict- We like to see conflict, appealing to the eye.
Human interest- Things that might be strange, different people.
Prominence- How important the person is. 
Impact- Something crazy that happened.
Novelty- Somebody wearing something strange.
