Tips for better pictures

• To avoid blurry pictures, hold your

camera steady by keeping your

elbows close to your body when

you press the shutter button.

• Stand close enough to your

subject so that it fills the viewfinder

but not closer than 4 ft (1.2 m).

• Take pictures at the subject’s level.

Kneel down to take pictures of

children and pets.

• Hold your camera vertically to

capture tall, narrow subjects, such

as a waterfall, skyscraper, or a

single person.

• Add interest to your picture by

framing it with a tree branch, a

window, or even the rails of

a fence.

• Keep the sun behind you. This

provides the best subject

illumination.

• Keep your hand, fingers, or objects

away from the flash and picture-

taking lens.

• Stand at an angle to shiny

surfaces like windows or mirrors to

avoid flash reflection and bright

spots in your pictures.
