Speaking composition it will always be associated with sensitivity and "sense" (sense). For that very necessary effort to train our sensitivity for can take pictures with good composition.
There are several ways that can be used to produce compositions baik.Diantaranya:
A third section (Rule of Thirds)
In general rules of photography, photo field actually divided into 9 equal parts. A third part is a technique where we place objects on the third part of the photo. This is very different from what the General did, where we always put the object in the middle of the photo.

a. Shooting Angle (Angle of View)
One element that builds a photo composition is the angle of the object. Angle of this object is determined by the goal shooting. Therefore, if we want to get a moment and get the best results, we should never be afraid to shoot from different angles. Start from the standard (parallel to the object), then try with different points of view from the top, bottom, side to the extreme angle.

b. Diagonal line pattern Composition, Horizontal, Vertical, Curve.
In the shooting of Nature, the pattern of lines is also one element that can strengthen the object image. The pattern of this line was built from a mix of other elements that exist within an image. For example, trees, twigs, leaves, line the horizon, mountain, road, roof lines, etc. ..
The elements which form the pattern of this line should be placed in the third part of the photo. The pattern of these lines can make images become more balanced composition of dynamic and not rigid.

c. Background (BG) and foreground (FG)
Background and foreground are the objects that are behind or in front of the core objects from a photo. Ideally, BG and FG is a support to reinforce the impression of the eye and focus attention on the object.
It also "mood" of a photograph is also determined from the elements that exist in the BG or FG. BG and FG, should not be more dominant (too obvious) than the core object. One way is to blur (Blur) BG and the FG through the diaphragm settings.

d. Several technical point of making a photograph, namely:

- Limited view of the eye (eye-level viewing);
The most common, limited shooting eye in the standing position, the results are reasonable / normal, do not generate special effects that make it stand out except for the effects arising from the use of certain lenses, such as using wide angle lenses, fish eye, telephoto, and so on because in most cases the camera is parallel to the subject.

- The view of birds (bird-eye viewing);
Shooting from above, the subject visible effects appear low, short and small. It sounded like a "small" / contempt towards the subject. Benefits such as to provide a location or landscap.

- Low angle camera;
shooting is done from below. The effect is a distortion of perspective which technically can reduce image quality, for which it is used creatively to create special effects. The impression of this effect is causing great personal figure, tall, strong and dignified, too arrogant. People should look a little short "normal." Describes how children view the "world" of adults. Also included in this type of shooting stage, the person making a speech on a high dais.

- Frog-eye viewing,
limited view of the frog eye. In this position under the camera, almost parallel to the ground and not directed to the above, but flat and carried her down. Angle is used in an image war, fauna and flora.

- Waist level viewing,
shooting waist. The direction of the lens is adjusted with the direction of the eye (without having to peek through the window observer). The angle is often used for candid photos (in secret, unknown subject of the picture), but taking photos like this is speculative.

- High handheld position;
shooting with the camera way up high lift with both hands and without aiming. There is also a speculative element, but there are tricks that is by using a wide angle lens (16 mm to 35 mm) by positioning the focus ring at infinity (fixed) and then play it back a little. Shooting as is often done to photograph the crowd to break through the crowd.

. Lens
The lens is a device consisting of several mirrors that function change the object into the shadow, inverted and real. The lens is located in front of the camera. There beberpa types of lenses. Normal lens, wide lens (wide) and a long lens or commonly called a telephoto lens.

- Normal-sized lens focus as long as 50 mm or 55 mm to 35 mm film size. Point of view this lens is similar to the human eye viewpoint. In addition to a wide lens, there is also a telephoto lens.
- Wide lens usually has a focus 16-24mm wide. These lenses are suitable for taking pictures of landscapes.
- Telephoto lens is a lens that has a long focal length. This lens can be used to obtain sharp short space and can generate near-real facial perspective. These lenses are usually the size 85mm, 135mm and 200mm.

Usually photographers use lenses as needed. If you want to photograph objects or objects near, or photographing the scenery, they usually use a normal lens or wide-angle lens.
But when the photographer wants to capture a particular moment with long distances, usually they use a telephoto lens. Thus, they do not have to bother to target objects, and their work will be more easy.
In addition to the normal lens and a telephoto lens, there are also other types of lenses commonly referred to as lens variations or special lenses (special lense). Usually these lenses are used for specific purposes. For example fish-eye lens (fish eye lens - 180 degrees). Taking photos with this lens the photographer will get a unique result. However, this lens does not function to filter out anything except change the view to achieve the results that deviate from the usual shooting.
If photographers want to take objects with small size or shooting close (photographer closer to the object), commonly used lens is a macro lens. These lenses are usually also used for reproductive purposes because it can provide excellent quality and minimal distortion. For example: to photograph flowers, insects, etc..


In addition to equipment, to produce a good photograph we also must consider several matters, among others: composition, light, line, shape, texture, appearance, color and vertical or horizontal.

6. Composition
Composition is the arrangement of the object image as a whole in the image area for the object into the limelight (POI = Point of Interest). By adjusting the composition of the photograph we also can and will build a "mood" of a picture and balance the whole object.

Anyone can take pictures. With the addition of creative thought and hard work, we can create great pictures that show all the creations and interpretations of what is seen and snap. Well, the art of capturing images using the camera at call with

Photography.
Photography comes from the Latin is: photos are light, light. Medium graphein means writings, drawings or design of forms. So, photography is widely used to write or draw with light. Figure dead or painting obtained through irradiation process by using cahaya.Karena in making us mengguanakan picture camera equipment then of course we have to really master these tools are also some basic techniques.
In using the camera we know what is called by:

1. Focus
The focus is the point of fire

2. Rana / Speed
Rana is moving down the curtain rose on the camera that function to regulate how long a movie about irradiated. Rana has units with numbers: B-1-2-4-8-15-30-60-125-250-500-1000-2000. The size of the shutter unit can be determined by arranging large and kecilnyanya shutter unit and the size of the diaphragm.
There is some shutter in the camera. Among shutter and shutter slit center. Rana gap there are two, namely: vertical slit and horizonta Rana. Both terletaDia on the camera in charge of closing the curtains and follow its function. Rana vertial close vertically and a horizontal closed horizontally.
Medium is the central Rana, Rana, located on the lens is located adjacent to the diaphragm and closed it with concentric manner.

3. Diaphragm
The diaphragm is a hole in place of light entering the camera lens when taking the picture. The diaphragm has several sizes or numbers. Each lens has different diaphragm openings respectively. Usually, the size of the diaphragm starts with 2,8-4-5,6-8-11-16-22. The size of aperture diaphragm that we choose to produce different images. Aperture small aperture will produce a vast space. Medium large diaphragm aperture will make a sharp narrow space (Blur).
Or simply, it means opening the lens diaphragm. In effect, the greater the aperture, the greater the speed required, the higher speed. Other effects, the bigger the aperture, the sharpness of a narrow space, which means that the greater the blur effect for the area outside the room sharp focus. Many ways and purpose of use / selection of the diaphragm, which among others will certainly affect the context of the image we created
Eg for photographing landscapes, using any camera, try setting to the most narrow aperture (largest number) that may be achieved, then balanced with a long exposure time settings as necessary (note the light meter).
But especially for shooting night, sometimes we can not reach the most narrow openings because of limited exposure time shutter that can not be too long, especially in the prosumer cameras are usually limited to 13 seconds maximum. Fortunately for prosumer digital cameras this is not a problem, because the sensor size is far smaller than a 35mm film frame, the space still sharp wide enough, even though the diaphragm is set to f/3.5 for example. And, it all depends on how the photo we will create.

4. Exposure
Lighting is the process of film illuminated by light coming from outside the camera by controlling the size of the diaphragm and kecepatan.Dalam lighting, aperture diaphragm determines the intensity of light that passed on the film. While the shutter speed set period of transmission of light.
There are several things you can do to determine the appropriate combination of aperture diaphragm with speed. One of them by selecting the aperture priority. That is, the photographer can choose how large aperture diaphragm that will be used. Each of the selected diaphragm aperture will make the outcome different images. When the photographer chose to use high shutter, then it is useful to stop the action. Medium low shutter will make kabur.Sedang action to take pictures in places with less light then to overcome them by the photographer is using high speed film. For example, Iso 400, 600, 800 or Iso 1600.
How to measure the lighting is usually available in every camera. To measure the light to be consistent, we can mensiasatinya by measuring the palm of the hand or bring our camera about 30 cm from the object. So, we'll have this lighting sesuai.Untuk get good light in a photo shoot usually we would choose the photograph on the hour 08:00 to 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.. usually in this time, the light in good condition, and not too hard.

In lighting there are some techniques that should be addressed. Among them:
Front lighting: light source comes from the front of the object. This light will produce a flat image.
Rear lighting: light source coming from behind the object. With these light sources such as the object that we take into shiluette (black). Shooting with the light source from behind do if we want to make a photo shiluete.
Lighting Side: Photographs by wearing light source from the side to make objects that we take will seem firm. Usually this light
