Graphic composition of sports photography

In sports photography, photographic composition with dynamic performance with direct and visible role. Good composition method to make the relationship between the severity of the physical screen, the relationship between the primary and secondary relation, perspective, space relations are good show, thus better reflecting the photographer's creative intent, display sports picture competition, demonstrating a strong dynamic effects.

In sports photography, photographic composition with dynamic performance with direct and visible role.

Good composition method to make the relationship between the severity of the physical screen, the relationship between the primary and secondary relation, perspective, space relations are good show, thus better reflecting the photographer's creative intent, display sports picture competition, demonstrating a strong dynamic effects. In sports photography, we commonly used composition methods have the following:

First, change the composition of

Changes in the composition of major perturbation of deliberately arranged on the screen of an angle or a side and the other with body slightly higher, which resulted in the level of the screen, causing screen flow.

Changes in the composition of

Change of the composition can be a good visual guide readers, the entire screen to think and imagine the space, and leave room for further judging, rich in flavor and taste.

Usually this kind of composition method used for showcase athletic moments of humor.

Second, the compact composition

Compact composition method is the main feature of the scene is in the form to enlarge it to full screen, with local compact, delicate, microscopic characteristics.

In sports photography, use compact composition on athletes features, such as displaying their campaign after sweating gorges of scenes, can play a very good effect.

III. composition of the heart

To heart-shaped body composition is in a central location and the surrounding scenery is concentrated towards the Centre of the composition form, can be one of the main sight is highly cited, and the role of the aggregation.

With outstanding principal distinctive feature, but sometimes also can generate oppression Center, heavy feeling cramped. Use the heart-shaped composition for explosion effect of shooting, the two have the same characteristics, to let the screen visual impact, and a strong and dynamic.

IV. elliptic composition

This kind of composition method allows the formation of strong overall picture, and rotation, movement, shrinkage, and other Visual effects.

Commonly used in performance does not need special emphasis on the subject, and focus on the performance of the scene or render the atmosphere of screen content. In sports photography, photographic composition using oval pommel horse, etc. have taken way rotation characteristics of the project, or an explosion effect of special effects shots, can be a very good show screen dynamically.

Five, eccentric-composition

Typically, a photographer like will be perturbed in arrangements in the center of the screen.

Although, this can give a picture of a stable structure, but often let their lack of exercise, and dynamic. Therefore, the photographer may slightly change, to be taken for eccentric layout, can to a certain extent render dynamic. And the extent of the eccentric and more-in other words, be taken of the position of the screen, the closer the border-the photo composition can produce dynamic, the more strongly.

6. diagonal composition

Diagonal composition is the main cause in diagonal, efficient use of the screen diagonal length, and makes me and the main event of a direct relationship.

Wealth to the city, is lively, easy to produce a line of convergence trend, attracting people's attention, to highlight the main results.

Since the diagonal composition derived from another composition style called slash composition, it is in addition to effectively highlight the subject, but also be able to demonstrate strong dynamic effects.

Because slash to represent dynamic body movement forward and change, can cause screen produces dynamic. And the extent of their movement, and slash the point of view. Angle greater than 30 °, represents progress and bigger angle represents the more fiercely forward; if angle is greater than 45 °, the downward instead of forward.

7. the composition of the curve

Curve composition, can make the picture of the scene or the line is curved, curve has the extension, change of characteristics that can demonstrate absorbed body motion in progressive rhythm and unrestrained, make people look melodiousness, produce the feeling of the beautiful, coordination.

Therefore, the curve of the composition of the special suitable for shooting in rhythmic gymnastics, and other highly artistic projects.

VIII. vertical composition

Vertical composition is a top-down methods of composition, use it to display sports photography in top-down exercise, is the most appropriate.

For example, diving, especially in the double hop project, using vertical composition showing athletes at the moment of entry, to allow images of great beauty.

9. cross the composition

The composition is to allow the cross-shaped screen scenes, gradation or color changes follow to cross the composition form appears.

This composition can rest more space and can accommodate more background and accompany the body, so that the viewers eyes naturally to the crossed position set. In sports photography, cross composition more applicable to shoot regular competitive projects.

10, triangular composition

Triangular composition is based on three vision Center location for the main scenes, sometimes to the point into a geometric shape arrangement features, forming a stable triangles.

This triangle is triangle, or diagonal triangle or inverted triangle.

Equilateral triangle composition

This composition method of maximum one feature is to allow screen stability strong, balanced whole.

However, dull, dull, and also the composition of a defect in a triangle, in sports photography, this kind of dull and boring and not conducive to screen dynamic performance. Therefore, the photographer who is using this kind of composition method comparison such as photographing the award of a formal and solemn occasions. Inverted triangle-Composition

This composition has bright, spacious open feel, very suitable for dynamic performance.

However, in its left and right sides, it is best to have some different variations to break down the sides of the absolute balance screen from dull.

Diagonal triangle composition

Diagonal triangle composition

The composition with the equilateral triangle, on the contrary, this composition forms fully demonstrated vividly, flexible trend, the been taken on the screen seems to echo another body is smooth, dynamic and direction is very strong.

Diagonal triangle composition in sports photography, is to use the frequency of a composition. In short, a good composition method of choice, you also need photographers in their own practice and to explore in creative writing.
