- Tips for taking great photos -

  • For best color reproduction be sure your film or disposable camera is fresh; develop exposed film promptly.

  • Choose the Right Film - the higher the number of ISO speed, the less light it takes to create a picture. With 400 ISO film you can take a picture on a heavy overcast day or indoors without a flash. But that photo will not look bright. The higher the ISO number, the less light you need, but the more grainy the photo will appear.

  • Choose the right composition - Be aware of background clutter that might detract from your subject.

  • Fill the frame with your subject; be careful not to cut off anybody's head or the fish's tail.

  • If you are not removing the fish from the water, cradle it's upper body in one hand, keeping your fingers out of the gills, with your other hand grip the tail and then position the fish at an angle.

  • If removing the fish from the water for photographs, have things ready before removing it. Take a few quick shots and return the fish to the water - never keep a fish out of water longer than you can hold your own breath.

Now get out there and start shooting (and fishing)!
