The Application of Constructivism and the Purpose of Photography Training

Composition is one of the most important things in the early stage of photography, which plays a role in highlighting the subject, attracting attention, simplifying clutter and giving people a balanced and harmonious picture. Good composition will highlight the center of the picture, make the picture more story-telling, and reflect the author's understanding and feelings about a thing.

Composition can be said to be an empirical technique for arranging and combining picture elements. Divide things with strong contrast into subject and object, or foreground and background. Arranging harmonious objects with triangular axes or diagonal lines and turning light and shadow into emotional combinations are all composition techniques. Good composition can make ordinary things unparalleled and highlight the theme; On the contrary, a bad composition will turn an attractive protagonist into a vulgar and idle corner.

Whether shooting portraits or landscapes, composition is an important consideration of the aesthetic feeling of the picture; The quality of composition directly affects the visual enjoyment of the picture. This is one of the reasons why some people shoot the same scene well and some people shoot poorly.
