Let's talk about how you can make a photo more interesting by introducing the foreground.

I will show, as always, on my own, real example.

I was waiting for my parents from the concert. I liked the combination of warm and cold shades and I decided to take a picture.

I got out of the car, took a picture, but I didn't like it. This was an ordinary protocol picture, without much mood.

Then I thought about how to give the mood to the frame and drew attention to the falling snow on the car window. It melted and created droplets.

I decided to shoot the same frame, through the glass with drops. This is a common technique. It is simple and gives a certain drama.

The picture through the glass turned out to be more interesting. There was some blurring of the rays from the lighting sources. Since the frame is now partially overlapped by drops, this boring, everyday clarity and nudity has gone out of it. There was an understatement and a certain mystery.

And of course visually it looks more artistic.

There is no deep meaning in this picture, but it has become visually more attractive and pleasant to look at.

Now that you've seen how it works, you can use this technique in your smartphone pictures!

I wish you good luck and artistic shots!
