What problems should be paid attention to when applying the law of balance in photography?

Balance is balance. This is a literal explanation, a conceptual concept. The balanced composition we are talking about here is an artistic aesthetic and visual psychological concept.

Balance is different from symmetry, because this composition form is not a one-to-one correspondence between the shapes, quantities, sizes and arrangements of the left and right scenery, but a different arrangement of the same or similar shapes, quantities and sizes, which gives people visual stability. It is the echo balance of abnormity and dissimilarity, and the artistic balance of applying the perspective laws and visual habits such as near-heavy and far-light, near-big and far-small, and depth. Of course, equilibrium also includes symmetric equilibrium.

Balanced composition gives people a sense of tranquility and stability, but there is no absolute symmetry, so it is a common form used by photographers in composition, and balance has become one of the basic requirements of photographic composition.

Balance the picture. To form a balanced composition, the key is to select the balance point (balance). What is the balance point? This should be found from the artistic effect. As long as the location is suitable, small objects can be balanced with big objects, distant objects can also be balanced with near objects, animals can also be balanced with still objects, and low scenes can also be balanced with high scenes. The effect is related to the author's aesthetic ability and artistic quality. Practice and study more, and you will certainly master this composition form and make good use of this artistic skill.

Unbalanced composition is characterized by instability, disharmony, tension and turbulence. It is ideal to express the dynamic situation from the scene image; From the psychological reflection, there are advantages in expressing restless emotions, uncoordinated movements or inconsistent attention, and different expressions. If the cruel war, revolutionary storm, messy scenes and other scenes are shown, good visual effects can be achieved.
