Conan gives her an assessing look, and decides that a demonstration is needed. He pulls out his own device and takes a quick photo of a nearby bench, then turns it around to show to her.

"This is how it looks when you don't focus." He turns and takes another photo of the same bench, this time taking care to use the focus settings. He turns and shows it to her. "See how much clearer the photo looks now? As for the rest of it, the way you arrange the different components of a picture can change how people view it."

Putting away his device, he pulls out a notebook and draws a quick diagram of a photo with several objects arranged it. Then below it he draws several diagrams of the same photo, but with the objects arranged in different patterns.

"See, if there is no pattern to how a photo is arranged, someone looking at it won't know what to look at first. It just looks like a collection of objects. There are several ways you can make it more interesting. For example, if there is too much going on in the background of a photo, you can zoom it in to minimize the background distractions. The human eye is naturally drawn to lines and shapes, so you can use that to change how your audience views a photo."
