Developing your 'photographic eye' probably isn't as easy as looking through a lens, but with work and attention to detail, everyone can change the way they see things.
Steps
- Look at photographs. Not just looking at them at their face value, but look and consider what went into the shot. What is the photographer trying to convey with it?
- Also consider that sometimes a rose is just a rose... nothing was being 'said', but it can still speak to you.
- Try to learn and understand what 'right brain' versus 'left brain'[1] is; Artistic versus logic.
- Don't just take snapshots of what you are looking at, but use it to express you.
- Get out there and take some pictures. They won't just jump into your camera.
- Practice. Nobody gets better without putting in some time and effort.
- Read some comics. You are looking for the things that catch your eye and how they are composed. This can help you get a better perspective on what works.Advertisement
