Introduction to Still Cameras
Composition:
Photography is a visual language which our universe in starting to understand more and more. Understanding how it works is one thing but we also need to know the vocabulary that comes with it. The main vocabulary is, shapes, textures, patterns, lines, and colours, shade of light to dark and sharp to blurry images. Just like we learn to arrange words into proper sentences, in order for what we say and read to make sense, we must also do this with our visual elements, in an organized manner, in order for our photographs to convey their meaning clearly and vividly.
Composition is the placement or arrangement of visual elements or ingredients in a work of art, as distinct from the subject of a work. It can also be thought of as the organization of the elements of art according to the principles of art.
The Rule of Thirds:
This is one of the most popular rules in photography.
It is based on; imaginary lines that are drawn dividing the image into thirds both horizontally and vertically (like a noughts and crosses board). The aim is to place the important elements of your composition where these lines intersect. Using this rule, helps produce nicely balanced easy on the eye pictures. You have to position things relatice to the edges of the frame, this helps get rid of ‘tiny subjext surrounded by vast empty space syndrome.
