25. To attract attention
To illustrate a point in the story
To tell a story in sequence
with other illustrations
To give visual relief to the
layout
44. The ancient Greeks discovered the pleasing effect of
objects with a rectangular shape. When a picture is
divided into thirds, it is often most powerful if the
focus of attention is in the intersection of two of the
perpendicular lines.
45. Depth of Field
refers to the area
of a photograph,
in front of (
foreground)
or behind
(background) the
point of focus,
that is considered
acceptably sharp.
DEPTH OF FIELD
46. The sharpest part
of the image
should be the
point of interest,
so focus must be
taken cared of. If
something other
than the main
subject is the
sharpest part of
the composition,
the viewer’s eye
will rest in the
wrong place.
Focus
47. Perspective refers to the relative size
and depth of subjects within a picture.
When the field of view is wide (image
below) the perspective becomes more
apparent because it is stretched.
Perspective
48. Pattern
There are patterns all around us if we
only learn to see them. Emphasizing
and highlighting these patterns can
lead to striking shots – as can high
lighting when patterns are broken.
50. Leading Lines/Lines
Lines can be
powerful elements
in an image.
They have the
power to draw the
eye to key focal
points in a shot
and to impact the
‘feel’ of an image
greatly.
51. Juxtaposition
An act or instance of placing close together or side
by side, especially for comparison or contrast.
52. Framing
Macro
Portrait
Human Interest
Action
Panning/Motion Blur
Life
Street Photography
58. WHAT IS A CAPTION?
A caption is the text of
body type,
accompanying
photos or art work
or any pictorial
illustration.
59. The following are parts of a caption:
•Catchline – a brief catchy title of the
caption usually in capital letters and bold
face
•Body – explains or describes the picture
or illustration, in italics with font size
bigger than the text of the news story
•Credit - attributes the source of the
picture
Parts of a Caption
60. Captions should . . .
be brief and to the point
supplement and explain the pictures but
shoud not state the obvious.
identify everyone in the picture and be
accurate. (Give the full Christian name, make it
