Category: Composition

In the top half of this photo I found a lot of geometry in the triangles and shapes that the telephone wires form when they all intersect with one another. I think this creates an interesting composition especially since the dark color of the wires contrasts with the brighter color of the sky behind it.

I think this is one of my favorite photos that I took when I was in Japan. The Tokyo Tower is already pretty massive, as it is 3 meters taller than the Eiffel Tower, so when I was taking this photo I wanted to emulate the sheer size of it using the right angle and…

When I took this photo I didn’t really have this photo blog in mind, but I think it works as the rule of odds. In the image there are 3 gacha capsule machines, which take up the whole frame but also don’t clutter the image because I left some negative space on top. I do…

In this image I used the bright sky as negative space. When considering how much detail that the castle itself has, the lack of detail in the background really highlights all the small accents within the building itself, like the gold trim and symbols within the roof.

For me this center frame portrait exhibits loneliness, as my sister (the model in this photo) is looking off into the vast distance of the ocean. The composition of this image is set as the rule of thirds, so that most of the image is filled with the ocean and leaving you to think about…

In this image I wanted to capture the symmetrical balance of the two bells. This was during my families Christmas party so I wanted to take it isolated from the loud and bustling atmosphere. I simply photographed the decoration in the middle of the image, but far away enough that you could notice all of…

This photo was taken in Japantown, on the little orange bridge that’s near the entrance to the area. I used the railings on the bridge to bring the viewers eye towards the lanterns which are more in the left of the photo. The railings and the frames that hold up the lanterns are even on…

When I took this image I didn’t have weight or mass composition in mind, but looking back at it, it’s easily cut in half and is pleasing to look at because in a way it’s balanced. The large amount of trees and the mountainous landscape is balances out with the large sky above it, which…

I wanted the cell tower to be the subject of this photo, even though it itself is very far away and faint. The tower clearly very symmetrical, and it being in the far away distance makes it apart of the landscape. I decided to use an angle where the trees in the foreground would frame…

I originally wanted to take this photo based off of negative space because the green field was so big that it would work well for that type of photo. When I took this photo though, I realized that the dog just happened to stand out against the blurry background and it really made it look…
