Composition Techniques

The main four composition techniques is rule of thirds, framing, unusual angles and leading lines, they are also the most common ones. The rule of thirds is when you break down the shot into three parts, both vertically and horizontally, ending up with a grid. You will notice four points in the center of the grid, that is where you would want to place the subject of your photo.  is the technique that focuses on the subject by blocking out other parts of the picture with something in the scene. Framing gives the picture context, it also gives the photo depth.Unusual angles is when you use variety of perspectives to make your photo more interesting. You can crouch or lie in front of the subject to make a cool angle, you can climb above it as well. Leading lines, which is one of my personal favorites, is where you use lines that are in the shot to lead to the subject. Leading lines add a dynamic impact to the photo.
