RULE OF THIRDS
Composition

The rule of thirds is applied by aligning a subject


with the guide lines and their intersection points,
placing the horizon on the top or bottom line, or
allowing linear features in the image to flow from
section to section.

Rule of Odds
• The Rule of Odds states that people are
more attracted to uneven numbers in a
composition. ... People are naturally
drawn to unusual or uneven
composition. To that end, we use an
odd number of elements — hence “rule
of odds”
Rule of odds
Rule of Phi (universal
measurement)
• The Phi Grid looks very similar to the
Rule of Thirds principle yet it has one
very important difference. Instead of
dividing the frame into equal thirds of
1:1:1, the Golden Ratio is applied to
divide the frame into sections resulting
in a grid that is
Golden ratio

Leading Lines
• Leading lines are one of the most
effective and under-utilised
compositional tools available to
photographers. You can use them to
draw a viewer's attention to a specific
part of the frame, whether it's a person,
or a vanishing point in the background
of the frame.

Frame the Frame
• Whether it be a very literal frame (that
went through a popular “prop” phase),
environmental, or structural framing,
framing with light or lack of light, they
all work well to bring the viewer's eye
to your subject. Framing is actually
defined by wikipedia as 'a technique
used to bring focus to a subject'.
Depht
• To further present a flat surface create
points of perspective to draw the attention
of the eye to the subject all the way
around the frame
Patterns and Shapes

• View the world as patterns and shape to


show a different perspective and dynamics
Negative and Positive Space

• Fill the frame or isolate the subject with the


spaces it acquire
Manipulate Light
• Capture the light find the best light…
• Two kinds of light
• Ambiant light
• Natural light
