Photographic composition
Photographic composition refers to how the elements within a photograph are arranged to create a balanced, interesting, and visually appealing image. It involves techniques like framing, the placement of subjects, lines, shapes, and light to guide the viewer’s eye and evoke emotion. Good composition helps tell a story or highlight a subject without distractions. Key principles include the rule of thirds, leading lines, and symmetry, which help photographers organize the scene intentionally. Overall, composition is about thoughtfully arranging visual elements to enhance the photograph's impact and clarity.
