Photography tips

Below are some tips on taking pictures to then contribute to the allaboutuni.com website:

  • Read your camera manual, the automatic functions, whilst doing a good job, can be enhanced with refinement.
  • Examine the composition; find the best angle before setting up the shot.
  • Try to get the full building in your picture.
  • Try to keep the sun behind you and use it to light your subject.
  • Don't hesitate to use photo stitching software to create panorama shots. This often comes with your camera or can be obtained from the Internet
  • Try to get a mix of campus pictures: the main entrance, buildings, communal areas, art, university symbols, maps and sports facilities.
  • Please don’t include other subjects, for example friends, vehicles etc.
  • Try to take your pictures on a sunny day. The sunlight and blue sky will make a big difference!

Enjoy yourself!
