This document discusses and analyzes the composition, lighting, backgrounds, and visual style presented in several photos of different musical artists. For each photo, it describes elements like whether the rule of thirds is used effectively, how the lighting and backgrounds convey certain vibes or meanings, and how the positioning and styling of the subjects relates to the type of music they produce.

clothes emphasises his strong and
dominant character.

The composition of the largely
portrayed girl fills the thirds. The
black and grey backgrounds connote
darkness and meaning.
This is a picture of ‘The Beatles’. The
composition of the almost identical
haircuts and white back ground
gives a fun impact to the image. This

primary optical area doesn’t show
any detail of the photo, just a simple
grey background.

The rule of thirds is not used
effectively in this image. Put the
dark brown context of the
background creates a dark
ambiance.
This image uses the rule of thirds
well as it contains
The high key lighting gives an insight

composition of the bricks in the
background connotes urban and
street themed music.
