One Tip at a Time Tip 12 – Experiment with Panoramas (iPhone)

Posted on by Tressie

How do you experiment with Panoramas? As I’m trying to get back into creative photography, I am having a hard time moving forward. My brain has a hard time coming up with ideas of what to do and I end up watching true crime instead. But…now that we have nicer weather (and I need more exercise) I am hoping to spend at least a few hours a week on photography fun.

This time? I chose to go to Hudson Mills MetroPark and roll with what ever came up in my brain. One of those ideas was Panoramas.

Do you ever struggle with how to make your photo more unique? Regardless of your subject, changing the viewpoint or angle of your shot can make a huge difference in the final image.

Most people tend to keep their camera pointing straight toward their subject. One of my favorite things to do is to try multiple angles until I get something that I love. Sometimes my fav will be the straight forward original, but more often than not I will prefer one of the unique viewpoints or angles.

One Tip at a Time Tip 2 – Get Closer

Posted on by Tressie
