🌳 1. Embrace Natural Light
Shoot early or late in the day (golden hour) for soft, warm light.
Overcast skies? Great for even lighting—perfect for portraits or nature details.
📐 2. Play with Angles
Don’t just shoot from eye level. Try:
Low angles for tall trees.
Overhead for picnic scenes or patterns.
Close-ups for textures like bark, leaves, or flowers.
📸 3. Capture Life & Movement
Parks are full of people, pets, birds, and children. Capture candid moments.
Use a faster shutter speed to freeze action, or a slower one to blur movement artistically (like running kids or a flowing fountain).
🌼 4. Focus on Details
Zoom in on dewdrops, leaf veins, insects, or shadows.
These small moments can be surprisingly expressive.
🎨 5. Look for Layers and Frames
Use trees, branches, or benches to frame your subject.
Include foreground, middle ground, and background for depth.
🌈 6. Go Light and Stay Ready
Carry just a phone or a light camera, so you're always ready for spontaneous moments.
Use burst mode for action shots (like a dog jumping or kids playing).
