Original title: "the 7 necessary composition methods can cope with 90% of the shooting scenes!" "

Composition is the basis of a photo, by changing the position and focal length, dealing with the relationship between the elements, so that they show the best visual effect in the photo. Composition is the most important part of photography, and photographers spend a lot of energy on composition when they take pictures in the early days.

Whether the photo is good-looking, we will see at first glance whether the composition is clear, whether the main body is clear, whether the collocation of the elements is coordinated, and whether the overall structure, lines, texture, light and shadow of the photo are ornamental.

Today, we introduce five basic composition methods, which can deal with 90% of the shooting scenes. Let's take a look.

1, Trichotomy composition can be said to be the most basic composition, but also evolved many versions. In short, the picture is divided evenly according to the ratio of 1 to 3, three horizontally and three vertically. Put the main elements on the intersection of the two three-point lines, here is the visual center of gravity of the picture, more beautiful and attractive.

When longer objects such as lines appear in the photo, they can also be arranged on the three-point line, such as the horizon, buildings, people, and so on. This not only avoids the rigidity caused by the middle, but also maintains the balance of the center of gravity of the picture, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

2. The guide line composition uses lines to lead the line of sight to the main body to form a strong sense of visual convergence. The lines can be real lines or imaginary lines produced by the extension of regularly changing objects. This composition is suitable for scenes with depth, such as highways, railway tracks, flower fields, and so on.

3. Symmetrical composition symmetrical composition refers to a form of composition in which two parts of the scene take a certain line or point as the axis of symmetry and balance each other in size, shape, color and arrangement. The shooting scene may itself be a symmetrical structure, or it may be the use of reflection. Symmetrical composition produces a sense of serenity and harmony and has the power to turn ordinary scenes into magical ones.

4. the Trichotomy of central composition is to put the object in the position of 1/3, while the central composition is to put the object in the center of the picture, the two are not contradictory. Some scenes are not suitable for trisection composition, but are more centered. For example, when shooting a close-up, you can center the object and fill the whole picture as much as possible.

Sometimes the central composition can make the photo more powerful, the audience can focus all their attention on the subject, and the picture is more symmetrical and balanced.

5. Frame composition, as the name implies, frame composition should construct a frame in the picture so that the scene appears in the frame. The frame is like drawing a "circle" in a photo. The circle must be to show you what is in the circle. There are also many prospects that can be used as a framework, using elements such as caves, fences, branches, and so on. Frame composition can create a sense of strangeness and brighten people's eyes. When using a frame, you should pay attention to the beauty of the selected frame and do not weaken the subject.

6. triangle composition makes the object form a triangle in the photo, and the object itself may have a triangular structure; it may also be made into a triangle through a special shooting angle; or it can be a triangular distribution of three points of interest to form an imaginary triangle. Triangles have stability, pictures taken with positive triangle composition also have a sense of stability, while inverted triangles have a sense of instability.

7. blank composition creates a large area of blank area in the photo, highlights the main body and creates artistic conception by leaving white space, which is for blank composition. Blank composition can create a feeling of loneliness, emptiness and stillness. When using blank composition, we should pay attention to the sense of balance of the picture, at the same time, there must be a point of interest that attracts people's attention, not all blank.
