25 | Snap & Share | Still Life / Tabletop |
Use your imagination to create a still life or learn about flat-lay photography and shoot straight
down on your subject. Practice your composition skills and find out how depth of field affects your
images. This topic can include food photography - it's on a tabletop, right? Find out more about
this type of photography here.
This topic is sometimes called "product photography" but can be so much more.

23 | Snap & Share | Textures |
In texture photography, it’s all about patterns, colors and depth, and every single detail of a texture plays a significant role in the overall perception of the photograph. The combination of these intricate details, interesting patterns, vibrant colors and a good depth – all contribute to a beautiful texture. Read more at
this good "textures" resource.
