CikeSNAPSI-10T GUILD PICTURE OPPORTUNITIES Keeping the camera ready for the unexpected resulted in this unusual snapshot. Picture opportunities are abundant, so have your camera with you wherever you go. IT ISN'T very often that you'll flnd a dog looking inquisitively around a corner at a cat, but if you'do, it will be an occasion wellworth photographing. You've probably seen similar oddities, and often expressed the desire to take pie. tures which really capture such sit- uations. Many opportunities like this occur but once, and, by having your Camera with you at all times, you can take advantage of these in- cidents to make a number of inter- esting snapshots. Besides the unusual, there are many other things that afford excel- lent subject material for the cam- era hobbyist. For example, activi- ties of general interest offer an abundant source of picture oppor- tunitiee, Hiking, motoring, swim- ming, boating—in fact, any sport will yield a number of good snap- shots. Or, wherever you go—to the mountains, seashore, or inland lake you'll have the chance to plc,. ture the scenic beauty as well as the interesting happenings on a memorable vacation, a week- ehd trip or lust, a day's jaunt. There'4 no single formula to fol- low when you take your Camera with you, but there are some good points well worth remembering:' First, always look ter scenes that are characteristic of the place yon are visiting, whether you are out for just a short drive, or a trip to some distant section of the country. Second, try to organize your shooting so that the pictures tell a reasonably well ordered • story. Not just a lot of shots of one thing, but a step-by-step account of what you did and what went on. Third, always be on the look- out. Watch for unusual or "dif- ferent'. pictures such as the one il- lustrated above. They add a great deal of interest and variety to your album. 1n scenic shooting, don't let broad, breath -taking views mislead you. They're good subjects—but in- clude a foreground object or "frame" when possible, to give theta depth and creative feeling of distance. In picturing the things you do, always try to include some action —not necessarily rapist motion, but people (Wing something. In brief, snake each picture tell a story. Chances to get excellent snap. shots are everywhere, and it's easy to bliild is fine collection. ICeep your camera with you constantly, and bring back a permanent record of your experiences. 343 John Van Guilder
