Photographic structure method

Photographic composition method is as follows:

1, composed of horizontal lines

Horizontal line composition is often used to express vast scenery, such as sea, lake and grassland. When taking a picture, you can make a composition according to the position of the horizontal line to show the subject.

2, vertical line composition

Vertical line composition is often used to represent trees or buildings, which will give people an upward, firm and straight feeling.

If you want to show trees growing upwards or other vertical landscapes, it's best not to leave a blank space at the top of the photo, so as not to leave an infinite subject for the audience.

3. Composition of S-shaped curve

If there is an S-shaped curve in the picture, you can consider using this composition, which is generally used to show the figure of women, or often used when shooting rivers and roads.

4. Diagonal composition

Diagonal composition, that is, the image of the subject in the picture is diagonal, which will have a stronger sense of movement visually. Generally speaking, this composition is often used when shooting fierce racing cars or other speed competitions.

5, triangle composition

The triangle is stable, and the same effect can be achieved by this composition method when taking pictures. Used to express the sense of stability of characters and the grandeur of nature.

6, guide wire composition

This composition technique is often used to shoot bridges or straight roads, which makes the picture have a strong sense of depth and enhances the mystery and unknown feeling at the end of the picture.

7. Decentralized composition

Scatter composition is a picture composed of scattered shapes. Its main feature is that "the shape is scattered but the spirit is not scattered", which is more commonly used to photograph cows, sheep or horses on the ground or flowers scattered on the grass. Make the picture have a strong sense of rhythm.

8. Three-point composition

Divide the whole picture into nine identical areas, and arrange the subject at the four intersections of the dividing line or any dividing line when shooting. Triangular composition can avoid the dull and boring picture.
