Photography | Take It Easy | Simplicity Is The King

I've upload a similar shot before HERE

 

In photography background can make or break a picture, a background can tell a story and a background also can break your story, messy or cluttered background can take away viewers attention from your main subject unless your background is your "subject". In photojournalism background plays an important role to tell a story.

 

When I shoot my portrait in this case my son, I will always scout a location first, find a great background and then only position my son, colors of his cloth or attire also very important, this picture won't work if my son wearing a dark or totally black clothing, what I'm trying to say here is that, I plan most of my shot. It is not just a walk in the park.

 

Sometimes it take a lot of work to produce a simple photograph. Simplicity is the result of hard work, complexity the one of no work at all.

 

"The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak."

 

Hans Hofmann

 

"As I have practiced it, photography produces pleasure by simplicity".
