Composition Assignment

For this assignment, we had to research eleven different composition types before we began to take photos. After we had a good understanding of what each composition type was, we took many photos of each and chose the best to represent the different types in our slide show.

Rule of Thirds: Ducks in pond
Pattern: Open doors with one closed
Symmetry: Stair case
Texture: Flower buds on a branch
Depth of Field: Grass with boy in the background
Lines: Window railing
Framing: Chair legs with boy standing
Perspective: Stair case railing
Space: Chairs in hallway
Balance: Tree and tree reflection on water
Color: Markers in colorful cups





Summary: What I most enjoyed during this assignment was learning how to take different types of pictures. Before this assignment, I was unaware that certain compositions could change the idea of a photograph drastically. Also, I learned that photographs are typically based around the rule of thirds and how much more appealing to the eye that strategy is.
