Rule Breaking with Symmetry

Posted on by Scott Thomas
Symmetry in it’s purest sense is an object which, if cut directly down the middle, would be mirror images of each other. It’s one of the ways to break the Rule of Thirds correctly. Hope that doesn’t confuse you. It’s easy to find a symmetrical object but the images I’ve chosen to show you here … Continue reading "Rule Breaking with Symmetry"

Case for Using a Polarizer Filter

Posted on by Scott Thomas
In this age when photo software can duplicate almost any effect film photographers used filters for, I still find one filter very useful. The Polarizing filter does just what polarizer sunglasses do, they cut down on the glare from the sun. Most people use a circular polarizing filter which means the filter moves once it … Continue reading "Case for Using a Polarizer Filter"

Here is a photography rule which I read about when researching the previous blog on the Sunny 16 Rule I wrote about last time. This one is called the Rule of Odds.

Metadata Revisited

Posted on by Scott Thomas
When I was talking about adding metadata and how to use it. I seemed to have confused some people about how much work it takes to add captions and keywords. While it does take time to add them, it’s not as time consuming as it sounds. Photo management software like Apple’s Aperture 2, Adobe’s Lightroom … Continue reading "Metadata Revisited"
