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.

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.
