How can depth be created in a photograph?
Correct Answer: Depth can be created by including elements at different distances from the camera.
- Step 1: Choose a scene with objects at different distances from the camera.
- Step 2: Position the camera so that some objects are close, while others are further away.
- Step 3: Use a wide-angle lens to capture more of the scene, which can enhance the sense of depth.
- Step 4: Adjust the aperture setting to create a blurred background (shallow depth of field) while keeping the foreground in focus.
- Step 5: Include leading lines (like roads or paths) that draw the viewer's eye into the image.
