The rhythmic horizontal sorting method gives the photos a steady, steady and atmospheric temperament. Of course, there are such horizontal lines in nature, and the appropriate horizontal lines can be captured by using the photographic eyes.

2, vertical line composition

Vertical composition gives people a sense of order, stability and practicality. Suitable for towering scenery. Such as buildings, trees, cliffs, waterfalls, etc. (Original shooting parameters: F/ 16, 1/200 seconds, ISO200, focal length 35mm).

3. Diagonal composition

Directional composition, artificial arrangement is more obvious. You can easily guide the viewer's line of sight to the two corners of the photo and return again. Increase the time the audience stays in the photo. At the same time, diagonal composition gives photos a sense of movement, liveliness and spatial extension. Often used to shoot portraits, water, roads, buildings, etc. (Original shooting parameters: f/4, 1/40s, ISO500, focal length 35mm).

4.s-shaped composition (curve composition)

There are various shapes of objects in nature. For example, the scenery on the screen is in the form of S-shaped curve composition, which has the characteristics of extension and change, making people look rhythmic and producing a beautiful, elegant and harmonious feeling. It is often used to photograph landscapes, roads, rivers and paths. (Original shooting parameters: f/5.6, 1/80 seconds, ISO200, focal length 80mm).
