3 steps to make your photo more interesting

It's never easy to get rid of the clichés we encounter on a daily basis on the internet. The Eiffel Tower, the view of a city, doors, and the list could go on for decades. However, there is always a way to make photos more exciting.

  1. Look for something unusual

    One may not be attentive and observant enough to notice the beauty of the street. There are everyday objects that aren't considered to be of great importance. However, it might be its odd shape, colour that could make it stand out of the mass.
    The following photo depicts a door without being special, yet the vivid and bright colours around it really makes it different and a great subject to take a photo of.






  2. Add some dramatic look

    Being creative when taking photos of city landscapes is not the easiest task. It's really difficult to make your photo different from others that you can see. One way to make it interesting is to apply some colour grading to your photo, thus making it special in some way.

  3. Look for the perfect angle

    Why compose our photos in a perfectly horizontal way when there's a great potential in changing the usual composition? Dare to tilt your camera before capturing the moment!

      I used Photoshop Lightroom and I have a preset for that. If you're interested, send an email to eechalhoub@gmail.com
