How do you know what subject you are going to shoot? Here is your interest. If you only want to take pictures of wildlife, then you have to wait for the subject to appear. Obviously you can go to a wildlife park like Rocky Mountain National Park and hope to find a subject. Most often it will depend on the time of year. Deer and deer stand out more when they go down the mountain to mate and eat. Birds will always be available, but bird species will vary. If you are in Alaska, it is possible that you will have a few chances of firing Bald Eagle, while in Florida you might find storks or storks.
When you practice the technique you must choose your subject accordingly. Many of us are arranged to the area around us. Landscape photography requires the use of land that you have around you, unless you are going on vacation to a new place. This is an important fact for choosing a subject. You are limited or you have the whole world at your feet. That will depend on the ability of your trip. For now we will stay close to home.
After selecting the media, you will search for a subject. The subject who talks to you is what you must choose to take. If the tree and the knot interest you, you will want to check the lighting of the area. Deciding which angle to take pictures will also make a decision about the subject. Lighting may not be right for the subject you have selected and the other side of the subject may not produce the best image.
To choose a subject you need a good eye for detail and observation. Often the best subject is not what you can see with ordinary eyes. Have you ever seen a tree and found a spider web hiding in leaves? If you look closely, you might find a spider. A spider web can make good pictures not only because the techniques needed to make the web appear in your photos with silk threads, but also the pattern of spider webs. We are fascinated by organisms that can create symmetrical patterns.
Again your eyes are the best tool for finding a subject. How you choose a subject will depend on what is available, angle and light. Moving slowly through areas such as landscapes will help you determine the subject. Searching under leaves or stones is often useful to find something new and different. You never know where you will find images just waiting for you to click on the image. Some people and animals do things that will never happen again and this is when you want to have a camera. Most people who are interested in photography carry cameras wherever they go. If this sounds like a habit, real habits turn into hobbies and income possibilities if you become good at taking the right pictures. As you get better at taking pictures, you can then start showing your images for others to see and maybe buy.
