Think Like a Gardener


Photography nowadays is very popular. Almost everybody has their own DSLR cameras. If you want to be one, take the tips from the blog gardeninggonewild.com which is written by Saxon Holt. He said that if you want to be a great garden photographer, you must think like a gardener. But what he means by that? In fact, most of the garden photographers love gardening. You won’t be able to tell the stories of the scene through your camera if you are not in love with gardening. Just as an example given by the author, he planted dark row of arborvitae to give privacy. From that idea or information, he was able to capture a good picture which is more emphasized. Try to look at the picture below:
