Photography Tips

#Pro Tips - Courtesy Nikon

Be patient when photographing the wild animals. Wait for the perfect moment to capture the expressions or actions.





Photograph kids using a fast Shutter Speed so that you don't miss out any moment. Switch your camera’s shooting mode to continuous.

When taking a picture with the sky in the frame on a sunny day, set your exposure compensation to -1 to darken the image & the sky.

Make your food photos look tempting by looking for natural light & adding an additional element to give an interesting touch. 


For street photography look for surprising subject & composition, A perfect light can emphasize on your subject & create wonders.

Create compelling B/W photographs by adding textures & interesting patterns. Look for some light to create strong shadows in it.

When photographing animals, use a long lens to narrow in on your subject & create a clean, defocused background. 



One way to get a good click is the story that you have captured should indeed be a story, and not one staged by you.

Use fill flash to add sparkle to your subject’s eyes when shooting a portrait outdoors during the day.

Elements of water can greatly enhance your landscape photographs. Try framing your shot with equal elements of water & sky. 

While shooting landscapes at sunrise and sunsets, go for a polarizer or graduated neutral-density filters for some good results.


Active D-Lighting is excellent at revealing details from Highlight & Shadow Areas. Particularly good on sunny days.

Remove the protective filters while shooting at night to avoid ghostly halos and flare from light sources.


Create abstract blurs by changing camera setting to 1/15 of a sec at F/11 – ISO 200 and shooting trees in a vertical movement.
