Everyone can learn to make beautiful and expressive photographs. You just have to be patient and not lose your enthusiasm along the way. After all, starting training, beginners make mistakes that can discourage the desire to continue familiarizing with the art of photography.

Today we offer Top 10 mistakes novice photographer. Knowing which pitfalls are most common, annoying misunderstandings can be avoided.

10. Not studied the instructions for the technique

Of course, reading a manual for the camera is not the most fun activity. But often ignorance of the capabilities of their own technology leads to errors. Even SLR cameras for beginners may not be so easy to learn if you do not familiarize yourself with the instructions in advance.

9. Inappropriate use of flash

As a rule, beginners shoot with the built-in flash. And its use “on the forehead” illuminates the foreground, creating black heavy shadows in the background. In addition, such a flash makes pictures flat.

8. Ignoring the rule of thirds

Very often, beginning photographers when shooting landscapes place the horizon line exactly in the middle of the frame, losing the feeling of space. If you raise or lower the shooting point, you can achieve much more interesting photos of nature. It is only worth remembering that you should not completely withdraw the horizon line beyond the boundaries of the frame.

7. Bad view

The most common mistake is shooting tall buildings and people from below. This creates the illusion of a falling skyscraper or a distortion of the proportions of the human body. Professionals sometimes use this technique intentionally, but for a successful shot in this case, a skill is required.

6. Bad frame borders

Of course, you can crop the pictures in a graphical editor, shifting the main subject of the shooting or cutting out someone's cluttered hands in the photo. But cropping affects the quality of the photo. So, already during the shooting it is necessary to think over the composition. The simplest rule is to avoid placing the main element of the picture in the center of the frame, since such photos look static and boring.

5. Cropped subject

Most often, this error occurs when shooting portraits. Cropped elbows, feet, tops and clothes make the picture look like a heap. Therefore, trying to remove your model as close as possible, you should still make sure that everything you need is placed in the frame.

4. Lack of image sharpness

Most often, such a defect occurs when shooting in low light conditions, when a slow shutter speed is required. It is worth remembering that the camera will perceive even the most inconspicuous trembling in the hands of the photographer, which means that in such a situation you will need a tripod.

3. Incorrect exposure

The amount of exposure is the amount of light that falls on the matrix per unit time. When shooting, exposure compensation is necessary, since the camera does not always automatically select the correct settings. The main rule: when shooting bright general plans, you should increase the exposure, when photographing general plans in a dark tonality - reduce.

2. Wrong ISO selection

When shooting, you need to select the minimum sensitivity that is suitable for the shooting conditions. An overestimated value will lead to a graininess of the frame, and an underestimated value will not allow you to make decent pictures in low light.

1. Abuse of graphic editors

Of course, modern photography is unthinkable without processing. Shooting in RAW format allows you to adjust contrast and adjust colors. But it’s important not to overdo it. Often novice photographers are carried away by excessive saturation of shades, excessive contrast or devoid of the slightest flaws in the skin on portrait photographs. An important rule is to preserve the naturalness of the photographs.
