This document discusses the basic rules of composition that make for a good photograph. It lists 13 elements of good composition including using the rule of thirds, simplicity, lines, shapes and forms, symmetry or asymmetry, color schemes, contrast, and framing. The rule of thirds involves placing subjects near the intersection points of an imaginary three-by-three grid overlaid on the frame to make photos more visually interesting. Other tips include using lines, diagonals and curves to direct the eye; positive and negative space; repetition; contrast; informal balance; and leaving space in front of a subject to imply movement.
Class 10 composition
- 1. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GOOD AND A BAD PHOTOGRAPH/FRAME? What makes a picture attractive is the usage of certain techniques which make an immediate impact on the viewer. These are Basic rules of composition
- 2. Elements of good composition: 2. rule of the thirds 3. simplicity 4. use shape and form 5. sweeping curves 6. use lines 7. positive and negative space 8. symmetry or asymmetry 9. shadows and reflections 10.frame 11.color scheme 12.contrast 13.Usage of appropriate camera angle
- 3. The first and foremost • Identify a subject Which means identify a point of interest • Make it simple . most visual attention can be created by looking for ways to give visual simplicity
- 4. Basic rules to get a good photograph • Use lines Implied lines hold the picture together. Use lines in photographs to focus attention. • Use diagonals to generate motion, energy • Repetition …….collection • Use S curves
- 6. Basic rules to get a good photograph • Use of foreground and background • Positive and negative space • Repetition …….collection • Use S curves
- 8. Basic rules to get a good photograph • Use contrast The eye will always go to the lightest and brightest colors. Use contrast to identify subject/purpose
- 9. Basic rules to get a good photograph • Use good informal balance . Symmetric vs asymmetric balance
- 10. • Use colors • Warm and cool
- 11. Warm tone
- 12. Basic rules to get a good photograph Use of foreground A "frame" in a photograph is something in the foreground that leads you into the picture or gives you a sense of where the viewer is. Framing can usually improve a picture. The "frame" doesn’t need to be sharply focused
- 14. Basic rules to get a good photograph • The visual "center" of a picture is not the "bull's eye center", but the intersection of vertical and horizontal thirds. Use thirds. • Use concept of lead room When the subject is capable of movement, such as an animal or person, it is best to leave space in front of the subject so it appears to be moving into, rather than out of, the photograph. • Avoid mergers—plants sticking out of people's heads, telephone poles "rising" from shoulders, etc.
- 15. The big rule • Rule of Thirds
- 16. Rule of Thirds • The Rule of Thirds is based on the fact that the human eye is naturally drawn to a point about two-thirds up a page. • the main subjects should be located around one of the intersection points rather than in the center of the image
- 18. Why the thirds ? • aligning a photograph with these points creates more energy and interest in the photo • The application of the rule of thirds to photographs is considered by many to make them more aesthetically pleasing and professional-looking
- 19. EXTRAS • Texture • Pattern • Shapes
- 20. Good depth and good angle
- 22. Less depth , b/g blurred
