Pictures have power, there’s no doubt about it. And with tech advancements, most of us are now carrying around incredible cameras in our pockets. But what makes the difference between a stunning portrait or an overexposed selfie? Between an accurate action shot and a just-missed-it blur?

We’d love to hear your tips and tricks for getting the best shot so post them in the comments below. You can also include the snaps you’re most proud of to show off your efforts - we’ll moderate as quick as we can to approve the pictures. When we’re done, we should have a handy how-to guide and bonus community photo album.

In exchange, and to celebrate the newest additions to the Google Pixel family, we’ll give a brand-new Google Pixel 7 to one lucky commenter. With powerful Pixel Camera features like Real Tone and Cinematic Blur, the Google Pixel 7 is a photography powerhouse and we can’t wait to see the beautiful images it can capture.

My photography tip, especially when photographing people, is to make them comfortable and pose them if something can look a little better on cam. Sometimes it's not just the angle you can influence, but also what you're actually photographing! 

[Eurico]

For food photography the angle matters, always include the plate the food is served on, 45 angle is best, lighting from on direction and uniform is always the best

Use grid lines for framing

My top tip for taking nature pictures is to stop , appreciate what you see, take at the angle you see and use the highest resolution you have without zooming and then crop later.

[Aasaad001]

Keep your phone as still as possible to avoid blurring and also use grid lines. Natural light whenever you can in my experience captures the best pictures.

Raining season is here, good time to take mirrored pictures. Find a good puddle, bring your phone closer to it in vertical position, so you see reflection and original object/place then take a picture. Ideally your light and puddle should be good. Use your pic as it is or turn it 180 degree and check the effect.

I always use HDR mode, great to balance light & dark element and give pictures more creative edge
