Pick your shots

One of the lessons I learned from a professional photographer friend was to pick-my-shot. Since hearing his advice, I have taken the time to get the feel for the area, place that I plan on taking photographs of. If you have a plan, visit the site during the day, review the directions of the best positions for the pictures that you want to take. Where is the best shot looking east or west, remember the color saturation of the morning and evening light.

Having spent time reviewing what I am going to take a picture of, I'll come back when the light is right - a morning sunrise reflection, an evening sunset color swath and return to the locations that I want to capture.

Here is a break down of from the bbc.co.uk site and is demonstrated by a picture from Tom Ang:

1. If you see a potential shot, walk around to find the best position from which to take it.
2. You may also have to wait for the best light.
3. The best position may depend on the zoom setting that you choose.

Once again from Darrell, enjoy the art of photography,
