Do you like photography or beautiful pictures? It is really an amazing way for us to learn about focus. This is because the act of viewing an object in life through the lens of camera can help us learning the skill of being focus.
It’s one of the most important skills in our daily life as we need focus to properly transform our perception of the world around us and people in it. Take preparing for a meal as an example, focus is just what required the most in your preparation process.
3 things photography can teach us about focus
1. the higher the magnification, the narrower the field of visions.
When you use a telephoto lens to pick out a single face in a large crowd, you will just focus on that subject while the rest of the crowd would be ignored by you. By then your filed of vision narrows till the entire frame is filled with that face — your subject target.
2. Lighting has a huge influence on your ability to focus.
When you open your camera and support it on a tripod, focusing it on a single object, the lighting will determine how you see that object. That’s why in the same position, you would see very different views of the same sky scenery without moving any part of your camera. It’s because even though the subject remains the same, variation in lighting will change appearance of the same scenery.
3. Shutter speed affects the quality and clarity of any photography.
Using a fast shutter speed in a low light situation, your picture will be underexposed and worthless as a result while using a slower shutter speed when trying to capture an action shot will also give you a blurry picture without details, worthless. So you need to adapt the exposure time to fit the requirements of each situation accordingly. If not, quality and clarity of the image would be compromised.
Like how photography teach us about focus, focus can affect how we affects our meal in the following 3 aspects.
1. The more preparation you do for the meal, the more efficient it would be finished.

The more preparation you do, the more efficient and successful it would be. You need to think about dishes to cook and materials to buy for those dishes. Your need to be patient in the preparation process. Some auxiliary conditions such as a enough big dinning room and enough tableware shall also be prepared.
2. Focus has a huge influence on how you make it clear the priority of materials to be added into the hot pan.
You need focus to make a priority of the menu you’re going to make. Priority on the most popular cuisines or on what you are most good at will shine your cooking skills out and make you more popular among your friends or family members.
3. Duration and degree of heating as well as the salt amount do affect quality and color of your meal.
