Composition Rules and Guidelines




1) http://www.photographymad.com/pages/view/10-top-photography-composition-rules
I like the 2nd rule, the balancing rule because it explains how placing your main subject off-centre, creates a more interesting photo.
2) http://www.digital-photo-secrets.com/tip/3372/18-composition-rules-for-photos-that-shine/
I like rule the 9th rule lines because it explains that the human eye is drawn into a photo along lines whether they are curved, straight, diagonal or otherwise.
3) http://www.colorpilot.com/comp_rules.html
I like the rule of thirds because it explains how the human eye is drawn to a point about two thirds up a page.
4) http://photography.tutsplus.com/articles/14-composition-techniques-that-will-instantly-improve-your-photos--photo-7978
I like step 1 in this website because it explains how you shouldn't try to be perfect because there is no such thing as perfect composition.
5) http://www.digitalcameraworld.com/2012/04/12/10-rules-of-photo-composition-and-why-they-work/
I like the 1st tip in this website the simpifly the scene because it explain when you look at the scene with the naked eye, your brain naturally picks out the subject of interest.

My First Photo Outing - Principles of Design

 

This is my most favorite picture I took, its my favorite because it reminded me of the regular teenage look of were they just hate everyone and everything. I thought the kid look all bad leaning against the locker while the security guard just walks by him and doesn't say a word to him. Also my group and I had Emphasis, the boy in this picture really caught my attention with the whole cool guy look and the security guard really stands out.
