Guiding line composition of photography skills

Lead: the composition of the guide line, like the composition of the frame, gives people obvious visual cues. If the main body is added to the kitchen of the guide line, it will make the main body more prominent. Let's have a look!

Guide line convergence focus

Guiding line composition method is to guide the viewer's eyes with lines in the picture, so that his eyes will finally converge on the focus of the picture. Of course, the guiding line is not necessarily a specific line, as long as it is directional and continuous, we can all call it a guiding line. In real life, roads, rivers, neatly arranged trees, colors, shadows and even people's eyes can be used as guiding lines.

The above works were shot in Yunnan the year before last. As a guide line, the wooden covered bridge in the picture can lead the viewer's eyes to the distant mountains in the picture.

Guiding line composition

In addition, the guide line composition can also make the photo have a good sense of depth, make the front and back scenes in the photo echo, make the picture have a strong three-dimensional sense, and can divide the structural level and layout of the photo to make the structure of the photo more distinct. In actual shooting, we can first determine the guide line, and then consider how to compose the picture and how to guide the viewer's line of sight into the focus.
