This document provides information and tips for a photography workshop focused on concept photography and capturing resilience. It discusses composition techniques like the rule of thirds and use of lines and patterns. It also covers using light, depth of field, and symbolism to convey concepts and emotions. Examples are given of concept photos representing ideas like global warming. The workshop aims to provide basics that can improve smartphone or camera photos without technical knowledge.
The document discusses the basics of composition in photography. It explains that composition is the arrangement of visual elements in a photograph designed to convey a message to the viewer. A photographer has to consider the subject's positioning, focal length, depth of field, framing, and camera angle to create an aesthetically pleasing composition. The summary also reviews different types of shots, such as long shots, medium shots, and close-ups, that can be used to make the final photograph more interesting.
The document discusses key concepts of composition in photography including the differences between snapshots and photographs, the elements that composition depends on such as structure, balance and dynamic, and guidelines for effective composition including the rule of thirds and use of lines and shapes. Specific techniques are described like using horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines to guide the viewer's eye and create a sense of movement or dynamic within the frame. Tips are provided such as focusing on the background, keeping the image simple, getting close to the subject, and always being ready to capture photos.
This document provides tips for taking better portrait photographs. It discusses using a large aperture to blur the background and focusing on the subject. While most portraits are taken at eye level, changing the angle can provide a creative perspective. Playing with eye contact, such as having the subject look off-camera or at something in the frame, can make portraits more candid and interesting. The document also covers lighting portraits using soft, diffused front lighting and experimenting with lighting directions and multiple light sources. It describes lighting patterns such as split lighting, loop lighting, Rembrandt lighting, and butterfly lighting.

Photography - Composition. Leading lines, framing and rule of thirds.Betty Lowrance
Composition involves arranging subjects or objects in art. Leading lines help guide the viewer's eyes around the photograph towards a clear focal point. Framing uses borders or frames to direct attention to the subject, while the rule of thirds imagines dividing the image into thirds to place the main subject at the intersections for improved composition.
This document discusses the elements and principles of art as they relate to photography composition. The elements are line, shape, space, value, texture, and color. The principles are emphasis, balance, unity, contrast, movement/rhythm, and pattern/repetition. Understanding and using these elements and principles allows photographers to make intentional compositional choices that make their photographs more visually interesting and impactful.
The document provides tips for basic photography. It discusses the importance of composition, exposure, lens, and light.

This document provides tips for improving digital photography composition, including taking pictures from fresh angles, keeping horizons straight, following the rule of thirds when framing shots, leaving space around the subject, using lines to enhance photos, and filling the entire frame with the subject or scene. Examples are given illustrating proper techniques.
Composition refers to the arrangement of visual elements in art and photography, involving the organization of elements according to principles of art. It involves consciously putting together or structuring a work of art using positive and negative space. Positive space is occupied by the subject, while negative space is unoccupied but extends to the frame or edge of the artwork. Today's lesson focuses on identifying positive and negative space and the frame in compositions.
The document discusses the key elements that make a good photograph, including good composition through proper framing and following rules like the rule of thirds. Other elements are sharp focus, good lighting, correct exposure achieved through aperture, shutter speed and ISO settings, using the right lens for the situation, and having thoughtful intent behind the picture. Composition is emphasized as important through different angles, frames like close-ups, and using space properly including head room.

This is a power point I used to teach a computer production technology grade 10 class. I was teaching a photography unit and used this PowerPoint to demonstrate both good and bad examples of photography. Myself, my brother, or past students took all of these photos.
The document discusses various rules and guidelines for photographic composition, including:
1) The rule of thirds, which suggests placing subjects or points of interest along the imaginary lines that divide the frame into thirds both horizontally and vertically.
2) Using leading lines to guide the viewer's eye into and through the frame. Lines can be literal lines or implied by changes in texture, color, or other elements.
3) Considering lighting, angles, framing, and filling the frame to focus attention on the subject and simplify distracting backgrounds.
4) Employing techniques like repetition, contrast, and balance to create order and visual interest. Composition allows the photographer to control how viewers experience an image.
1) Photography has become a popular hobby for many people who use cameras to capture memories and moments.
2) Following a few simple guidelines can help anyone take better photos, such as keeping the camera steady, following the rule of thirds for subject placement, keeping the horizon level, filling the frame with the subject, using framing techniques, considering lighting, changing the point of view, and using leading lines.
3) Proper techniques like these can result in sharp photos that can be proudly shared.
The document discusses the key elements of composition in photography. It identifies two main parts of composition: the subject, which is the main focus of the photograph, and the treatment, which is how the subject is framed within the photograph. It provides guidelines for applying techniques like the rule of thirds, using lines, perspective, color, contrast, framing, light, and managing the background to create visually interesting and engaging photographs. The goal of composition is to guide the viewer's eye through the photograph and keep them looking as long as possible.
This document provides guidance for writing analytical descriptions of photographs. It outlines four assessment objectives (AOs) to address: AO1 developing understanding through research, AO2 experimenting and developing skills, AO3 critically reflecting on one's work and process, and AO4 making connections, presenting work, and evaluating. For each photograph, it recommends discussing the technical aspects, composition, visual elements, and conceptual meaning. It also provides vocabulary and questions to facilitate in-depth analysis of photographic style, techniques, genres, lighting, lenses, cameras, and creative/technical controls.

This document provides guidance on taking portrait photographs. It discusses composing formal portraits by making subjects comfortable, being in control as the photographer, and emphasizing the subject over backgrounds. It also offers tips for portraits outdoors and indoors, including considering lighting, backgrounds, and using techniques like depth of field and the rule of thirds. Specific advice is given for portraits of families, children, and in evening light. Throughout, it stresses focusing on the subject, avoiding distractions, finding fresh perspectives, and balancing elements in the frame.
The document provides guidelines for achieving good composition in photographs. It discusses key composition principles like the rule of thirds, simplicity, lines, balance, framing, and avoiding mergers. Specific techniques are described, such as placing the subject off-center following the rule of thirds, using lines to lead the eye, balancing elements symmetrically or asymmetrically, framing with foreground elements, and avoiding mergers between the subject and background. Examples illustrate good and poor composition based on these principles.
Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list.
But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift.
That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles.
The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.

7. THINGS TO CONSIDER
Several key areas which you should consider:
Light
Shape
Texture
Pattern
Colour
Composition
LIGHT and COMPOSITION are the most important!
8. RULE OF THIRDS
The viewer’s eyes naturally go to one of the
intersection points, not the middle.
Try to get subject on
one of the focal
points
Horizon lines
9.
10. Leave space at
one side of the
subject
Which side is the
subject travelling
or facing towards?
Can help create sense
of motion or convey
object travelling
11. Breaking the rule of thirds can add a bit of
difference and drama to an image
Look for symmetry and reflections
Experiment – do what you feel is best
12. FRAMING AND BACKGROUND
Have something of interest in the foreground, as
well as something in the middle ground and
background – creates depth and distance
More than one subject (use thirds)
Frame shots between two objects e.g. Trees,
buildings
Adjust your focus to blur the background or
foreground to give extra focus to the main subject
13. USING LINES
Thinking about where the
lines are in your shot can
help add depth or drama
to a photo, and help lead
the viewers eye towards
a focal point
Horizontal lines
Vertical lines
Diagonal lines
Leading lines
15. PATTERN, TEXTURE AND FORM
Look for repetitive patterns
Breaks in a pattern can be interesting
Reoccurring shapes
Interesting shapes and form – stand side on, not
front on for depth and 3 dimensional images
Use light and shadow to emphasise form and
texture
16. LIGHT
Early morning and late afternoon - soft light
Midday – harsh (hard) light
Sunrise and sunset - vivid colour and silhouettes
Watch for blown out skies – better to have
foreground dark
Night photography – long exposure, use tripod or
flash
Cloudy weather low contrast – but can be dramatic
17. ‘SOFT’ LIGHT
The closer to the light source the broader the light
The broader the light the softer the light
Less contrast and distinct shadows and highlights
Portrait photography
Soft skin textures
e.g. Someone sitting next to a window or a lamp.
18. ‘HARD’ LIGHT
The further away from the light source the harder
the light
More pronounced shadows and highlights
Landscape photography – far away from the sun
(light source)
Street photography
Using a Flash
Removes shadows
Lights up foreground – but darkens background
Red eye and reflections (glass, mirrors)
19. GENERAL TIPS
Learn your camera’s controls off by heart
Always try for straight horizon lines
Don’t worry about other people looking at you
... But don’t make ‘subjects’ uncomfortable – don’t
be a creep!
Change your perspective – get down on the floor or
stand on something
Have fun!
