Photographic composition is the first step, although photography composition rules is not dead, but understand composition can avoid some rudimentary error when viewing the good works, learn about the photographer why shoot, and their results must be of help.

This article on a photographic composition, although this article is focused on the composition of the landscape photography, landscape composition is one of the most complex, so armed with this rule, many can also be used in other types of photography.

1) attractive scenery

Composition of a first step, we must first find an attractive scenery.

Photography is not a simply pick up the camera shutter, before you press the shutter, you have to ask ourselves, what this scenery attract you? is color? clouds?, or sunset reflections?.. ". Identifies the principal, the next step is how to get to the performance of it. Typically, the body must have adequate size, to stand out. The subject is too small, would not be subject, at this time will use long focal lengths, or late-trim to handle.

The natural phenomenon of singular can easily become attractive body.

This is a rainy evening, I note that the West sunset place no clouds, so I guess there might be a rainbow, so get to the Park, take this rare scenes.

Most of the beginners photography of mistakes that is the most attractive scenery is placed in the Center.

Indeed, in the middle of the scene is the most easy to attract people's attention, however, a good photos should be looked at to attract readers, to guide readers eyes to other place to go. If, attractive objects placed in the Center, it is easy to only allow people to focus in the object, the picture becomes dull. At the same time, try not to make horizontal lines in the middle of the screen, because in that case easily lead to minor and non-obvious, do not know the key is to express the sky or the ground. But sometimes in the sky and the ground is just as important, I will put a horizontal line centered.

One-third rule 3) composition

If you want to avoid the Center, it is necessary to know the so-called "two-thirds rule" (the rule of thirds), also known as the "golden section", "9 bar Palace".

"One third rule" is the basic rules of composition, meaning: the screen horizontally in 1/3, 2/3 position draw two horizontal line vertically in 1/3, 2/3 position draw two vertical lines, and then try to put things on the intersection of location. Figure:

Pay attention to this picture, in front of the cow's location on the screen right 1/3, 1/3 position, if you put it in the middle position that makes it so compelling, and let the screen become dull.

This photograph of a horizontal line centered, I feel a little on the composition and has little effect, because the cloud and the following of meadows and cows are essential elements.

4) prospects because we have two eyes, we see the world is 3D, but the photo is two-dimensional, in two dimensional photos express 3D is not an easy thing.

Our brain tells us: large objects is relatively recent, small objects is relatively far away, so that through the object size in contrast in the picture, you can feel out of the distance. In the photography world, Telephoto shot is the scenery of the ' compression ', wide-angle effect is reduced to a distant scenery, people have sense of distance. Therefore, in this occasion, we typically use a wide angle lens.
