Composition and photography skills

The common techniques of composition photography are trisection, diagonal rule, blank space, foreground elements, angle selection, contrast and contrast, repetition and pattern, cutting and capturing opportunity.

Trinity rule: divide the picture into three parts: horizontal and vertical. By placing themes or important elements at the intersection of these dividing lines, photos can be more balanced and visually attractive.

Diagonal Rule: Divide the diagonal of a picture into two. By placing themes or elements on these diagonal lines, you can create more dynamic and layered feelings.

Blank space: Leave an appropriate blank space when composing a composition, which can make the theme more prominent and bring a sense of balance and tranquility to the photo.

Foreground element: Introducing an interesting foreground element can increase the depth and layering of photos and attract the attention of viewers.

Angle selection: Try to shoot from different angles, such as low angle or bird's eye angle, which can bring fresh and unique visual effects to the photos.

Contrast and contrast: Combining the contrast of color, light and shade, texture and other elements can make photos more visual impact and attractive.

Repetition and pattern: The use of repetitive elements or patterns in composition can produce a sense of rhythm and visual beauty.

Cut capture timing: When shooting, pay attention to capture the best timing and the most interesting elements. At the same time, according to the need for appropriate cutting, remove interference or highlight the key points.

Common combination forms:

Center-symmetrical composition: put the theme or element in the center of the picture to make the picture appear symmetrical.

Triangular composition: the picture is divided into three parts horizontally and vertically, and the theme or important elements are placed at the intersection of the dividing lines.

Diagonal composition: divide the diagonal of the picture into two parts, and place themes or elements along the diagonal to create a sense of movement and layering.

Golden section composition: the picture is divided according to the golden section ratio (about 1: 1.6 18), and the theme or element is placed at the golden section point.

Reverse composition: put the theme or element on the edge or corner of the picture, break through the limitation of traditional central composition, and create novel and attractive effects.
