Thank you Jon for a great Blog. Jon from reflectedpixel.com is an extremely talented photographer. I have enjoyed working with Jon and his father for several years now. They do great work.

I’d like to thank Darrin for the opportunity to be a guest blogger here at Wasatch Reflections. This is truly a great place to enjoy beautiful imagery.

I thought I'd give you some quick tips for making better images. So here goes.

1. Get Closer
Get in close and crop in tight. A tight crop will almost always have more impact than an image with a bunch of extra space. So don't be afraid to get in close.



2. Rotate
Your camera can take pictures no matter what direction it is pointed or rotated. Give it a try! The best time to take a vertical image is right after you've taken a horizontal one.


3. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
Don't let that great shot get away, take your camera with you and have it ready. The best camera in the world is the one you have with you.



4. Hold it still.
The number one killer of otherwise great photos is camera shake. Practice holding still or use something to help such as a tripod or monopod even a nice rock on the side of the trail or a wall to lean on can help.


5. Eliminate Intruders.
Just before you press the shutter, take a look around the edges of the frame. Are there intruding objects that will detract from your subject? if there are get rid of them by moving or zooming.
