How To Take Good Photos: Composition: Focus

TOM ANG
The human eye is drawn to elements that are in focus, and this will influence how your photo is seen.
Auto-focus (standard on most digital cameras) will focus on what is in the centre of the frame. Use pre-focus to move your subject away from the centre of the frame. (This is done on most digital cameras by pressing down halfway on the shutter button.)

Use your zoom lens to reduce the 'depth of field' (sense of depth) and throw the background out of focus. This will emphasise any in-focus element in the foreground.
