The document discusses rules of composition for photography, including simplicity, using the rule of thirds, incorporating lines and balance, framing the subject, and avoiding mergers. It notes that nature photos with a clear concept or mood have more impact, backgrounds shouldn't be messy or distracting, changing the camera angle can emphasize the subject, and longer lenses isolate the subject by blurring the background. Examples are then given of photos the author took applying these composition rules to nature subjects.

3. 2. The Rule of ThirdsUsing the rule of thirds means to take pictures with the point of focus being with in one of the green dots shown on the picture to the top left.

4. 3. LinesLines are dynamic in a picture!

5. 4. BalanceThe background to the picture makes it so that the car has balance so that the point of focus is on what the photographer wanted.

6. 5. FramingThis mountain is framed with bush mostly all around the picture. Frames help keep the eye focused on one thing.

7. 6. Avoiding MergersMergers are things that cause people to have things appear as if they are growing out of they’re head.

8. What I learned about taking nature Photography:Photos that tend to have a concept, emotion, or mood tend to have more impact on people. A messy or busy background can distract from the subject.Moving the camera’s position is one of the easiest ways to find a strong angle that emphasizes your subject.A longer lens allows you to narrow in on your subject and create clean, out-of-focus backgrounds.
