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.

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.
