How to Take a Good Photo

How to shoot professional photos? The answer to this question lies within the factors needed for a good photo. We can count two main factors.

First one is the setting and the amount of light in it. The other is the form of the photo you want to take.

To take a professional photo, a good education and experience in different kinds of environments are needed. However we will have several easy to understand advices for those who love photography.

We had already mentioned that the amount of light in a setting is an important factor. Lesser the light is, more time the exposure takes. For long periods of exposure, it’s very important to hold the camera straight. If not, the photo will not be clear. We can raise the ISO value to capture more light when there’s little light. But raising the ISO value starts to worsen the quality of the photo. Because of that we advise you to take photos with long exposure using 100 ISO.

If it’s an item you want to take the photo of, you should lower F adjustment, the diaphragm. Lower the diaphragm adjustment is, more the depth between the focused object and the background will be. This way the only focus will be your object.


What if you want to take the photo of a scene? In that case you would want to focus the entire view. For that, you need to do the opposite. You’ll need to set a higher diaphragm adjustment. This way all the image will be focused and clear.

Taking photos with a cell phone requires an entire new blog. Actually all the subjects we mentioned above are also viable for phones. Camera functions and settings of each phone provides different opportunities. So it’s important to know the main hints of photography.
