Section 13 Taking Pictures for PR

 

Goal:    Learn the very basics of story and action pictures for news

             Avoid common mistakes

 

What makes a good picture?

 

Not only is it worth 1000 words, but it tells a story.  For example, here is a good picture:

You can feel the cold, see the energy of the dogs, become excited.  Something is happening here and there’s a story in the image itself without anything more being shared.  (It’s KC9MKJ and the photo was taken by NA0MI.)
