Hello Disney fans! How is everyone? Are you ready for another installment of Picture of the Week?! My super friends Barrie, Scott, and I will show you how to fill the frame. Now this doesn’t mean you need to visit your local frame shop and put in a magnificent photo one of us took, although not a bad idea. What we’re discussing is a teaching tool. Come, I’ll show you.
You never know which characters you’ll come across or when. This day proved to be superior in that every time Laura Gilbreath and I turned around in California Adventure, we saw another one. In Hollywood Pictures Backlot we discovered Frozone and Mr. Incredible in the street meeting guests left and right.
Can you tell by this shot what my intended subject is? No, because there is far too much going on and no central focus.
Now it’s obvious that I was aiming for Frozone. By zooming in closer and moving aside to place the kids out of the frame I have a clean shot. Sure, I’d be even happier if there weren’t people in the background but far better that they’re behind Frozone than in front of him.
This my friends, is filling the frame. Tadaaaa!
I just wanted to say thank you for the useful information. We are on our way (July 8th) for our 4th trip to Disney World. I have a new (1 year old) Kodak Optical IS 10.1 mega pixels. Your comments have helped me and I hope this year when I head to the Spectro Parade that I can finally get a picture. Thank you.
Lisa responds: Have a fantastic vacation. I’m happy to hear that the blogs have been helpful. I’m certain that Scott & Barrie are delighted as well.
Great pic of Frozone!!
