About Composition in Photography



Composition simply meant as a way up the elements in the picture, these elements include line, shape, form, color, light and dark. The way you arrange the composition in the viewfinder will diinterprestasikan after your picture is printed. The main aspect of composition is the visual impact-an ability to convey the feeling that you want to express in your photos. Thus, you need to arrange such a way so that you achieved a goal, whether it is to convey the effect of static and silent or sesuatumengejutkan, different, eksentrik. In classical composition there is always the one point that first attract the attention attention. This is because the regulation position, subordination, in contrast or light intensity than its surroundings or the subject in such a way that the established way to bring attention to the observer at one point.

Overall, the composition of the classic has a good proportion of the fun. There is a balance between dark and light, between the form of open space and solid colors or with bright colors dim. At a certain opportunities, may be needed when you need your whole symmetrical composition. Often the images that you create more dynamic and visually more interesting when you put in the subject. You should avoid even a line of vertical divider.

To avoid an image that also required the presence of dynamic movement. This rhythm is due to the repetition many times a small-sized objects. The presence of rhythm in the striking image of a movement.

Line
Photographers often use a good line in the works to bring their attention on the subject of the main observer. Lines can also cause the effect of depth and movement of the image. When the lines themselves are used as the subject, which is going to be pictures attract attention. Not important whether the straight line, curve or circle, to bring the eyes out of the picture. The most important lines that become dynamic.

Shape
One of the most simple formula that can make a photo interesting is the attention to give priority to a visual element. Shape is one of them. We generally assume the shape as an outline for creating a shape formed, essentially, the subject image, the image is considered have the power and visual quality of the abstract. To make a protruding shape, you should be able to separate the shape from the surrounding environment or from a background that is too crowded. To create a strong contrast between shape and form a shape surrounding it. Contrast this can occur as a result of differences in light or dark color differences.
A shape, of course, does not stand on its own. When entering into a scene that contains two or more of the same shape, we can also crop a shape to enhance the image quality.

Form
When can shape their own mengindentifikasikan object, the form is still required to make an impression and three-dimensional solid. This is an important factor to create the effect of depth and reality. This quality of being derivative and light tone, which then form the lines of an object. Important factors that determine how the form is the form the direction and quality of light on the object.

Texture
A photo with a prominent image teksur can be a creative form of shape or pattern. If adequate, the texture will give realism to the image, bring depth and three-dimensional effect to your subject.
Texture can be seen clearly on the two sides are different. It's the texture that can be found when we juxtapose themselves on the subject to increase what we see, for example, when we want to photograph the surface texture sehelai leaves. There is also a time where we must reverse because the subject heading that we are the very knowledgeable. Texture also appear when a light dash surface with a low angle, shadows form in the same area.
Photographs texture is considered successful if the photographer can communicate in such a way so that the observer can feel as if the image is when the touch surface. Similar to the pattern, texture is best shown with a few variations and appears to widen out to the limit of the image.

Patterns
Pattern repeated in the form of shape, line and color are elements of other visual elements that can come into focus. The existence of a cause that the repetition effect ritmik and harmony in the picture. But, too much uniformity will lead to a boring picture. Confidential use pattern is to find variations that observers are able to catch attention.
Pattern usually is best expressed with the uniform. Although the lighting and camera angle to make shooting a picture is less likely and possible effects kedalamannya something that repeatedly become prominent.
Learn the principles of composition above, the following are some types that you can use:

Rule of thirds
Imagine there are lines that form a guide nine fruit rectangle the same on a large image. Elements of the image that appears in the corner-corner rectangular center will get maximum traction.

Format: Vertical Horizon or
Proportion rectangle on viewinder allows us to do the shooting in the landscape / horizontal or vertical / portrait. Differences in the format could cause a different effect on the final composition. Look at the viewfinder horizontally or vertically, and specify the creative decisions for best results.

Keep it simple
In some circumstances, the best option is keep it simple. It is very difficult for people to see a photo when too much attention to an interesting point. Generally, the more 'crowded' an image, the image is less interesting. Try to concentrate attention on one point and maximize resources tariknya.

Picture scale
An image that appears to be ordinary but interesting because there is a small point of interest concerns. The landscape shooting or Monument, develop shooting attraction by adding a known amount of the object as a starting point to give attention to the scale effect of the comparison.

Horizons
Alter the balance of the heavens and the earth can change the image of the radical. When the image is almost filled by the heavens will give an impression of plain and wide open sky but when disisakan only slightly at the top of the image, the impression will arise in full.

Leading lines
The eyes of the person who brought the image to see in the picture or take a picture. In general lines this form:
Lines that are visible such as the physical Marka road is not visible or directly such as shadow, reflection.

Be different
Perhaps there is shot-shooting that may be taken in addition to the approach from the front and photographs parallel to the ground. Move from near the suspected often produce an interesting effect.

Color
Make a prominent part of the picture's background. Main way to get this subject is to obtain a different color or nadanya drastically with the background.

Framing
When the subject has a special form of a strong, full-frame with the subject. Whether it is using the lens with a focus on longer or move to a subject.

Shooting position
When we feel saturated with the composition of that and only that, try meurbah perspectives fully. For example, the position of sitting or standing position to the shot from the top or bottom of the subject.

Number of subject
Taken with the many subjects that are relatively uniform, no less interesting from the view of the composition. Find one of the subjects' different 'among the many subjects it. Different mean different movement, shape and color.
