- PLACEMENT Where is your subject matter in the space?
- Rule of Thirds The main element of an image should be at a point within the frame of view that places it one third of the way into the photo.
- Your subject should be one third from the top, bottom, left or right of your photo frame.

- FOCUS If your subject is active or moving anticipate your subject arriving at a clear landmark in your field and focus on that.
- DEPTH OF FIELD This is how much of your subject field that will be in sharp focus.
- The higher the F-stop, the larger the area in focus, this is great for landscapes.Smaller F-stops are great for a narrow field of focus.
