Photo elements and design

The goal was to "play" photographer for a day. The only problem was that I already am a photographer who has been published. So it was a challenge to not be too "technical" on the camera.

These photos show examples of the principles of design and visual elements.

All photos were taken with my Cannon 1D digital SLR, with lenses ranging from 30mm to 300mm. Each exposure and f-stop varied. A flash was only used when the ISO reached above 800 on metering.

Each photo was taken in RAW format, and then developed using Adobe Lightroom. No photo was "photoshopped" or otherwise altered, except through the process of development (light, exposure, centering, saturation adjustments).

Those images with people in them are of myself, my wife (Sarah) and my youngest son (Liam), and are used with permission.
