Study Notes
Composition Basics
- Steve McCurry does not mention 8 basics of composition in his work. The number of composition basics he mentions varies depending on the source.
Rule of Thirds
- The rule of thirds involves dividing the image into nine equal sections with two vertical and two horizontal lines.
- Important elements are placed at the intersections of these lines or along the lines themselves for a more dynamic composition.
Leading Lines
- Leading lines guide the viewer's eye through the photograph by using lines or shapes within the image.
- These lines can be real or implied, creating a sense of depth and movement.
Framing
- Framing uses elements within the photograph to create a natural frame around the subject.
- It enhances the subject's importance and adds depth to the image.
Negative Space
- Negative space refers to the empty areas surrounding the main subject in a photograph.
- It provides breathing room for the subject and balances the composition.
