Host: What are some basic rules of shot composition? Jenny Berman: As far as composition goes and photographing well, there are several key points. One of the biggest things, that people have a hard time while as getting close to their subject. Over and over again I say get closer, get closer. People have a fear of being close, it s like I guess a natural fear. So, get closer if you need to buy a bigger lens to get closer, that s the way you do it, in most of critics that s probably the biggest flaw and this other thing that you can work on is what we call The Rule of Thirds and its not only applying to photography but its apply to everything that s visual and print, whether its paintings or web designs anything. The rule of thirds essentially is four different points in the picture, in the corners and in those four different points that s where your subject should remain. So, everything should be centered, it should be in one of those four corners. In most cameras including your little point and shoots will have the great displayed in their. So, if you just watch that grid and put your subject in one of those four points then you will have a great composed picture, a very well composed picture.
