Category: Composition

In our weekly photo blog, one of the challenges was to take photos that implement compositional techniques.

Frame Within the Frame

I feel like this photo is a good example of framing within the frame. My friends were walking down the hill and the tree branches came around and framed them into the picture. It created a small circle around the subjects so that they are the main focus. I really like this image because it…

Using Props

The props that I used in this photo were the birds. We were at the beach and the rocks were so beautiful in front of us. I had my little brother run and scare the birds while my other brother took in the scene. It created a really cool image with the motion of the…

Creative Staged+ Depth of Field

This is a great photo that I captured when my family and I went to San Francisco and took our puppy. We thought he looked cute and wanted to get a picture of him and the Golden Gate Bridge. I like this composition because it is creatively staged to look like he is bigger than…

Rule of Odds

Every so often there will a king tide, where the ocean goes out super far and all the rocks are exposed. We went and even though it was freezing, my brothers and dad searched for fish and crabs in the water. I love this photo because the three people all in different positions are super…

Fill the Frame

This hotel rose up into the sky and filled the frame of my vision so I tried to capture that through photography. Filling the frame allows for isolation of a subject and a new interest for the viewer. I love being able to be creative with how I take photos. This photo shows composition as…

Facial Symmetry

This photo is of my older sister and I edited it to show her facial symmetry. Symmetry is very pleasing for our eyes so we tend to try and attain perfect symmetry in our world so it was interesting to see how different looking someone would be if their face truly was symmetrical. This photo…
