ABSTRACT

Many aspects of picture composition apply to all photography, as the examples in Part 1 showed.

Technical controls too, such as the camera settings you make, choice of lenses and uses of flash,

also play an influential role. But then again, the kind of subject you choose to photograph

presents its own possibilities and problems. Part 4 looks, therefore, at a range of subject

situations with these points in mind. Potentially interesting subjects include people, places,

animals, landscapes, small objects in close-up . . . the list is almost endless. Despite the range of

these topics, it is probably true to say that all of us at sometime will want to, or need to,

photograph people, so this is where we will start.
