Top tips for taking photos
Get to know what your camera can do before you take photos.
Frame your shot carefully.
Be careful with your camera – it isn’t a toy.
Focus (press the button half way) so that you get clear images.
Make sure your subject is well-lit.
Having the subject off-centre can be quite effective.
Keep the camera level and steady.
Take lots of photos – you can delete the ones you don’t like.
