By: Cynthia Anderson
What is Photography?
Photography:
-form of art
-express your feelings
-can be inspirational
-image that just means something to you
Compositional Rules
~Simplicity
~Borders
~Rule of Thirds
~Lines
~Balance
~Avoiding Mergers
Simplicity
-Make your focus of the image very clear to the viewer.
Ex: Simplicity is like taking your school picture with the one color background. So that nothing will take the attention away from the main focus.
-You have have your main focus in the center and other background images frame around it.
Borders
Ex: Borders is not where you take the picture and put a frame around it.
Rule of Thirds
-Rule of Thirds is a guide that helps off-center place your subject.
Ex:Is having the subject of your photograph walk on to the image rather than off.
This image leaves you wondering where she is running to.
While this image shows where she is running to.
Lines
-The different types of lines can play a key role in your photography.
Ex:Stacking a bunch of chairs taking a picture of them from the top of the stack.
Balance
-Is having both sides of a photo be equal or even.
Ex:Balance of a photograph is like having a scale that has the same amount of toys on both sides. (They are equal)
Avoiding Mergers
-Mergers are background elements that somehow merge their way into the foreground, causing your image to be undesirable.
Ex:Taking a picture in front of a tree and making it look like it's coming out of your head.
