PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS FOR YOU:
Gridlines help you line up your shots. These are also useful for creating angles. For the perfect overhead shot or interior shot, match the gridlines up so that your photo elements are parallel. What does this mean? The tables or walls should be parallel in your photo to the camera’s gridlines. The shot above lines the edges of the cup so that they’re perfectly vertical. This gives the viewer a nice sight line straight to the subject. And now that we suggested lining up, don’t be afraid to mix it up! Before taking the shot, step back and examine it from various angles. Sometimes the straight-on shot isn’t the most interesting. If you’re going to try a new angle, make sure you make it deliberately not parallel to the gridlines. Having it only slightly off will only be bothersome.
