5. A PICTURE SHOULD TELL
A STORY
A good picture should be able
to tell what can’t be said in
words and makes the viewer see
something.
Upon looking at a picture you
should feel passion, beauty,
curiosity, sadness, .... The
viewer should feel involved in
the picture/subject.

10. PHOTOGRAPHY IS
WRITING WITH LIGHT
No light means no picture.
Photography needs light to be
able to reflect something.
There are different sorts of
light, defining the look and feel
and mood of a picture.
When no natural light is
available, we can add light to the
subject. For example: add
lamps, or bring in flashlight

11. NATURAL LIGHT
The sun. Or the available light.

18. The lines, the
structure, the form,
the perspective…
They define whether the
content is brought in an
interesting way.
Composition makes an image
stronger and supports the
content.

25. Technique IS KEY But
doesn’t make a good
picture.
It is important to use the right
technique: the right kind of
film, the right light, the right
choice of objective, with an
aparture or speed that fits the
subject.
For one purpose: make the
picture what it can be.
But only technique doesn’’t
make a good picture. It all starts
with seeing the subject and
framing it.

26. Aperture.
Or diaphragm.
It defines the depth of field of an
image.
Defines if an image is sharp
from front to infinity, or only a
part of it.
Generally: low value means low
depth of field (2.8 or 4)
High value means a high depth
of field (16 or 22)

29. SHUTTERSPEED.
How long the shutter is open.
Fast ‘click’ or long ‘cliiiiiick’
Makes a picture ‘moved’ (slow
shutterspeed) or ‘frozen’.
Generally: through speed you
can add dynamics, by moving
elements.
1/60 is the standard value: it is
fast enough so you don’t move
yourself. For everything below
it is advisable to use a tripod.

32. ISO.
Of film sensitivity.
The higher the ISO, the more
you can make pictures in darker
circumstances.
High ISO add more ‘noise’ or
‘grain’.
Lower ISO-have less noise and
result in a sharper images.
Generally: always choose the
lowest ISO possible.
Thursday 2 June 2011
33. LENS.
Or objective.
There are wide angle, standard
or tele lenses.
Zoom lenses often combine
some of them
Wide angle: everything belows
35mm
Tele: alles beyond 50mm
Standard: 35 or 50mm
Generally:
Wide angle is perfect for
landscapes. 85mm is perfect for
portraits.
