Develop natural situations to get more interesting shots. iT'S fun to loop for picture oppor- tunities— ppor- tunities— but it's more fun to create them. And many of the Brest picture chances are created dclibel•- ately by the photographer. If you wait for things to arrange themselves for a picture, you're just trusting to luck, and you play have a ling wait. But if you take a few steps to create a situation, you'll find it to get just the picture yeti want--wilen you want it. For example, look at the picture above. Is there any point in waiting for sue11 a situation to occur eater - ally? Not a bit. It's much simpler to spill the 011115 right whore you want it—place the kitten where you 11'lslr —and shoot, A Icitten'knows what to do when lee's face t.d face with milk.

In the forec>,rouud, look- ing at the scene you plan to 1(101ur0. Such a figure adds foreground inter. est, and directs attention ro the scene beyond. In picturing snow scenes, tramp out a path leading into the scene where itwill help the com- position of the picture. Such devices often add boiler' pictorial quality t0 your•. shots,. In taking action shots, don't trust to chance. If possible, arrange with your stlbJect to have the desired ac- tion take place at a 0110se11 spot. Then you can focus in advance, and be all ready t0 1i11oot, For e,anipie, to get a good shot of a sled spill, arrange for Johnny to flip his sled overa t n selected spot Hour 1110 hot. tom of the hill.
