2. MOTION
  • The primary message of the motion photo is an identifiable subject in motion with respect to its given surroundings. The use of Stop Action, Panning, Zooming, and Slow Shutter Speed Techniques can be used.
3. CLOSE UP/MACRO
  • A picture taken with the subject close to the camera. The classic macro is about getting detail. That usually means getting right into the subject. Macro photography is the act of photographing objects in close range so the subject you are photographing fills the frame. Very or extreme close-up photography, is usually of very small subjects in which the size of the subject in the photograph is greater than life size.
