Skills of using golden section line in photography

Tips for taking pictures with the golden section are as follows:

The photographer puts the face of the protagonist in the photo at the intersection in the upper right corner, which conforms to the golden ratio and makes the photo look comfortable and harmonious.

For example, the placement position is determined according to the orientation of the object. For example, whether the subject is affected by the background, whether the subject sign or decoration can be placed at the intersection, and how to determine the position according to the actual situation of sunlight radiation. This chair opens to the left. At this time, put the chair at the intersection at the lower right, and the overall picture will be more stable and harmonious.

The opening direction of the chair is left. At this time, put the chair on the lower right, and the overall picture will appear more stable. When shooting, blur the background slightly, and then match colors to make the subject stand out.

Finally, the Jiugongge composition method, like other composition methods mentioned later, is only a composition rule that can be followed, not a dead rule. These laws can provide reference for us when shooting, but our creative thinking cannot be limited by them. It is not necessarily better to shoot some subjects with the Jiugongge rule than the picture with the subject in the center, just as we can't stick to putting the subject at the upper right intersection point commonly used in Jiugongge composition.

We should find the best composition method according to the actual situation of the subject and the content we want to express, so as to take an exceptionally good photo.
