Close Encounters 

Creatively Speaking


Sometimes it's ok to get too close for comfort, especially when you're trying to take an artistic photograph. There are millions of interesting objects of all shapes, sizes and colors out there, so why not capture them in photos? Geometric patterns and unique shapes can make for some amazing photographs.

 Don't be afraid to try close-up shots of the random items in your room, at the mall, or in your own backyard. There are a few things that will help you take better close-ups, including:

* Proper lighting to avoid ugly shadows.
Be sure that your light source is bright and that it doesn't create shadows that could hinder the outcome of your photograph. Some shadows are ok, as long as they don't block what it is you're trying to capture.
   
* Macro settings on your camera.
Some higher-end cameras have a macro setting that allows you to take incredibly detailed photographs of very small objects. If your camera has this setting, try using it to capture even the tiniest details.

Tripods or stationary surfaces.
It's very important to hold your camera very still when you're taking close ups. If you don't have a tripod, try resting the camera on a shelf, a stack of books, or even your own knee.
