A reader favorite on StaceyPageOnline.com are the videos and slideshows we put together using photos provided by our readers. Once again, we’re asking for your 4th of July photos for a special presentation.

If using your mobile device to capture and share those moments, AT&T has provided the following tips for creating great photos:

Turn off your flash – If there’s sun or fireworks involved, odds are you’ll have enough light. Adding a flash will make details and colors less bright.

Focus the shot – Where do you want people to look? Touch the screen on your device where you want to focus the picture.

“Shoot wide” – Leave enough room around the edges so that you can crop the image into a square and keep all the important details in the frame.

Choose the right filter – For daytime photos, try softer filters like Mayfair, Rise, and Valencia. Night shots will pop in X-Pro II, Lo-Fi and Hefe.

Send your favorite July 4th photos by noon Sunday, July 6, to [email protected] for inclusion in a special presentation.
