Easily improve the level of photographic composition

Lead: You can't control all exposure factors when shooting? Aperture, shutter and sensitivity? What do you have left? All you have left is to control the composition of the photo with your own eyes, your vision and creativity.

1. Know when to use the trisection.

Understand why the three-point method can help you improve the quality of your photos, which will make your photos take a big step forward and help attract the attention of the audience.

2. Guide the audience's sight

You can use the elements of the scene to create a picture that attracts the audience. To do this, it is necessary to guide the audience's line of sight naturally into the picture through visual arrangement. For example, arrange a character in the picture so that his eyes can see a space instead of looking out of the picture. The audience will subconsciously follow the line of sight of the characters in the photo.

Debris removal

Here, I mean the clutter in the background that will distract the audience. Usually, the simplest method is to let the subject fill the screen with less background, but sometimes it can be achieved by changing the angle or rearranging the subject.

Find a unique angle

We know the world by observing it ourselves. The most common angle is standing posture. So when you shoot from a different angle from ordinary people's daily life, such photos will be more attractive.

Break the rules

One thing I learned in the art course is that learning the rules of composition is the basis of becoming an excellent artist. Why? Because then you will know when to obey the rules and when to break them. You can create better photos by consciously and forcibly breaking the rules. Doing so can increase the tension of photos and bring vivid emotions.
