Parklife

[SharonH]

I went to a local park the other day and tried a few photos of people (not something I usually do). I didn't notice the guy sat behind the couple in the first one :-( and there is one taken from Plymouth Hoe.
The gentleman in the green jacket - the jacket was all sparkly like sequins but the camera didn't pick it up sadly.

I'm lucky to have a park and lake just a block away and it's always nice for a stroll with my dog Charlie. Lovely pics of folks doing what they do. Nice and sharp in the boat image - just a tip, when framing for subjects like that, use Active Space, which is the space in front of a moving subject or where the subject is looking. Active space allows viewers to feel movement or wonder what the subject is looking at. Passive Space is the space behind the subject and is used as just background or letting the viewer see where the movement came from.

Ah thank you, I knew mine didn't look right but had no idea why, I will do that in the future :-)

It's all about framing your shot with the subject in a good space to give the viewer some interest. Enjoy your Z50.

Thank you :-)
