Your child picture* will be more interesting if they “tell a story." Show
th* child busy at something—such as this repair job. And don't stand
too far back.
YTIBTUALLY every parent takes
* «napshoU of the children—and
wtrald like to take better ones. It's
not difficult to take a good child pic­
ture^ and there's no subject more
appealing. But most of these pic­
tures can be made still better, it at­
tention la paid to a tew common,
easily-corrected faults.
The commonest faults are: lack
of “story” interest, wrong choice of
background or setting, subject too
tar from camera, and movement
which blurs the picture.
Almost any child snapshot will be
better If It “tells a story.” Simply
give the child something to do—
dress a doll, draw a picture, fix a toy
wagon wheel, blow soap bubbles.
Such activity add* interest to the
picture—sad also makes picture tak­
ing more Interesting for the child.
Olve a small baby a rattle or bright-
colored object to play with—It will
arouse his Interest, and you will get
livelier, more expressive pictures.
Be careful In choosing back-
Look beyond the su b ject-
camera lens will. Avoid a back-
that has a definite, obtrusive
such as the side of a clap-
And try for good con-
the subject. For example.
Is wearing light-colored
clothes, a dark hedge may make a
good background. A hilltop with the
child against a sky background is
also good.
Kxamine the child snapshots you
have taken. If the subject appears
too small in most of them, you're
taking pictures at too great a dis­
tance. See if you can't get closer. It's
easy with a focusing camera, or an
inexpensive box or folding type that
has a "two-point” focus setting. A
portrait attachment is also usetu)
for "close-nps" at three and one-balf
feet or even a bit nearer. You need
not fear cutting oil pan of your sub­
ject, provided you locate the subject
accurately in the view finder and
then do not move the camera - '.ion
making the exposure.
Movement—either of camera or
subject—blurs the picture. Take
care to hold tho camera still at th<
moment you snap the shutter. And
with a box camera, pick a time wuen
the subject Is not moving rapidly
If you have a finer camera, u»e a
shutter speed of 1/100 second or
falter, with a correspondingly lar0ei
lens opening.
Watch theso points In tal.ii cuild
snapshots. They're all sim p le , ik >
trouble—and they’ll insure you b e t­
ter pictures.
