"Warum muss man als Fotograf zeichnen können?"

Muss man nicht, kann ich auch nicht, wie ihr seht - aber es hilft den Bildaufbau zu strukturieren und die Technik dahinter klar zu haben.
Okay, ich kann auch alles ohne Ende mit Masken etc photoshoopen - brauche ich aber jetzt nicht unbedingt, denn mir ist aufgefallen, dass ich mindestens einen Aufheller und/oder Blitz dahinter brauche - Drops gelutscht/Foto im Kasten/Farbe und Ausschnitt anpassenkleine Korrekturen/ab aufs Plakat 🤷

In case you've always been wondering how to get REAL starbursts from your lens and how to know/influence how many rays there are:
It all comes down to how many blades the aperture-iris in your lens has.
The more blades, the more rays.
No blades, no proper rays,
open aperture, no iris in the way, less/no rays.

I asked chatGPT:

When adding alt text to describe arty photos, it's important to provide a concise and meaningful description that conveys the visual content and context of the image. Here are some steps to follow:

1. Understand the image: Take a moment to analyze the photo and identify its key elements, including objects, colors, composition, and any other notable features.

2. Be descriptive: Write a description that captures the essence of the image. Consider the mood, emotions, and any artistic elements that are present. Use adjectives and sensory language to convey the visual experience.

3. Provide context: Consider the purpose of the image and the surrounding content. If the image is part of a larger story or series, ensure that the alt text relates to that context. Provide relevant information that enhances the viewer's understanding and appreciation of the image.

4. Keep it concise: Alt text should generally be kept to a maximum of 125 characters, as longer descriptions may not be fully displayed or read by all users. Focus on the most important details and avoid excessive or unnecessary wording.

5. Prioritize accessibility: Remember that alt text is primarily intended for people who are visually impaired or using screen readers. Use clear and straightforward language that is easy to understand. Avoid jargon or overly complex descriptions.

6. Test it out: Consider how the alt text sounds when read out loud. You can use text-to-speech tools or screen reader software to evaluate the effectiveness of the description. If possible, get feedback from visually impaired individuals or accessibility experts to ensure the alt text provides a meaningful experience.

Here's an example to illustrate these steps:

Original Image: A close-up photograph of a vibrant flower with dew drops on its petals against a blurred green background.

Alt Text: "A vivid flower with dew drops on its petals, capturing the beauty of nature in close-up. The vibrant colors and glistening water droplets create a refreshing and serene atmosphere."

Remember, alt text should be tailored to each specific image, so adapt the description accordingly to suit the content and context of your arty photos.
