1. Introduction: and the series of videos I but to teach you how to improve your compositional techniques and photography on, make a much better looking photograph and things to consider before you click that sharp on and beautiful things that I will be talking about our leading lanes on how to best use them to draw the viewers eyes through the football and focus on the subject that you're attempting for the view of to engage worth. I felt the frame how to fill the free and movies courses possible. Think about removing any unnecessary clutter from the background on Really engage with these instagram yours more where they're using it on a smaller food and therefore you have to be zoomed much for the run for your image to stand out the use of triangles and fours where you can yours backgrounds and caught through rec time pools and create triangles. Create triangles with bodies. Three triangles with the way that people are looking at each other or create triangles with heads. Three people attended three figures in the picture. Two dozen invisible feature To make your picture much more powerful, much more stable and psychologically convey strength to the view. I will also discuss debt field, how to manipulate debt fueled by using, opportune and changing the X stops in order to make landscapes more clearer in much more detail. On on the box at hand. How to make your portrayed standout Andi have a bloody background effect, which some people call booking our Booker. I will also talk touch on how to create more debt to your fours. On. That is one of the things that most talk proposed are trying to achieve as create debt. A two D image to make it is three d as possible on two alone, the person to step in the full and feel like they are there rather than looking out to fly . And we can talk about had to utilise for growing the middle ground on the butler more or using the reputation off vertical objects down the middle off the screen to shore that there is death in this four. We will also talk about real of thirds the great lines, tech top told red and a way of approaching composition and making sure horizons or lines on the road or the pavement would meets of the veg on a river meets are going along these horizontal lines, which gets much more stability and balance two fours and is used frequently. And many types of full was trying to position your subject along the vertical lines. On the main points of subject, we have the vertical and horizontal lines cross over. This video is for new. The kennels are in immediate photographers. Both will learn something from here as well as instagrammers trying to up the rest of ground game, trying to gain we're following Skidmore likes and thinking of ways in order to create much more engaging content.
2. Leading Lines: in this video, we're going to discuss leading lines and composition for to take bare foreground photography. Leading lines are one of the most effective ways off. Utilizing good composition. You can use them to draw of years eyes to a particular part of the frame. This could be a person are vanishing point in the background of the frame on both the viewers, eyes are naturally drawn toe horizontal lines, vertical lines and diagonal lines across a photograph. So is worth while trying to incorporate this into composition off your pictures, some of the main subjects and a photograph that you can use our path ways roads, fancies, streets, really anything that creates a lane down picture if you want to go vertical or across the picture if you want to go horizontal or diagonal E, for example, On explains, it is important to understand how to use leading lanes and photography, because if you try to incorporate dumb on, you're not doing it correctly as a drawing of yours, eyes to the wrong part of the photograph. It can almost be detrimental to before and therefore is what fire learning how to use it correctly. So leader lines are the most underutilized tricks and photography to achieve great composition, a well placed leading line as well as positioning the subject in accordance with the rule of thirds, which we'll talk about later, is a great way off creating a professional type photograph and should be thought about when you are thinking about your composition before you actually click on the shot apart. So in order to years leading lines properly, you have to think about support your subject. As in the portal import, you are trying to basically happier of your focus on on, then create leading lines and the picture by positioning the camera in a way to comports the full, where the leading lines are almost drawing, the viewers eyes along the line towards the main subject of the foretell. So if you're taking pictures and you have a fans in the background, make sure the position the camera so the fans is almost leading from the front to the back . On this at the park of the fans, it's almost leading towards Subjects Head. If you're taking a picture off a person or FS castle, have the road leading from the front in the foreground of the picture to the background, but the castle at the end off the road you do not want in our broad in the parking leading somewhere else switches in the opposite direction. Off were subject er's because that destructive viewer and antique take their eyes down the photograph and the way there's no intended and will be detrimental to your final picture. Utilizing leading lanes correctly can create much more dynamic professional looking for tours and should be thought about every time you take a picture. Most often leading lines this start in the foreground and get not a war as they go into the background, focusing on the subject in the background. Create the most compelling tape. Four draft examples off other objects that could be used for reading lines as tall grass, roads, houses, streets, rivers breaks. So be aware of what's in the background and if he's leading light, complimenting a full or detracting from the photo before you click that shutter button as well as leading range, you have pots, which I'm very much similar in concept. However, the leading line will be attracting the viewer's eye along towards the subject creators. Path will be taking the years I threw full, but the end of the path, we'll just be going out into the distance with no subject. That's when you ask yourself. I'm using leading ones correctly. Ask yourself where as the leading light, quickest brickwork realist, the fans feel it's the board leading to in the picture and is a drawing attention and focus to the idea of Petra that I'm trying to convey to the view. If the answer is nowhere in particular no on the subject or cream, it is likely that you're not doing it correctly and should consider moving in terms of moving your body in order to get a much better position to create a much better.
3. Aperture / F-Stops / Depth of Field: in this video, we're going to talk about aperture or depth of field or F stops. Put simply our picture as the idea off picture that is in focus on how much of the picture is no in focus. Toe aperture is controlled by F stops, so you change the stops on your camera in order to control how much of a bloody But there is. How much of your background detailed is and focus on their field is really the signs optical phenomenon off How much of the picture is in focus. The three main factors that affect death Field as the aperture, which xtalpi years the distance you are from your subject, the further away you are, the larger depth field that you have to close out. Your short death feel that you have on 31 is focal length hasn put sides of lanes you are using hasn't a 35 millimeters 50 millimeters or it's a 200 million years. This will have an effect on the depth of field aperture affairs, too. The amount of light that is being a life into common so and small after would have small panel a large after would have a launch. Hold on noise. You control this by F. Stop. If you have the stop and look at the lens, you will see the Circle gang smaller or larger. What you really just need to consider as a law f stop will create a blurry effect in the background, and a high extort will give you much more detail in the background. Simple ways to remember this as a large aperture as a law f stop and will create a bloody battering, therefore, at 1.4 will create shallow depth of field on bloody background. Also called Booking on A 11 will create a large depth of field and therefore get much more detail in the background off a photo to recap the Lawyer F number shallower depth field that you will have and the higher the number, the more larger depth of feudal half and therefore more detail in the box. Israelis there stop on our picture. Having an impact on debt fuelled the other two parts, which are focal lane on distance to your subject. If we focus on the distance to your subject to start off with, the closer you are to your subject will give a much smaller debt field, and when you're using, lens starts off 1.82 point eight. Be considerate off this because you may find that their eyes and focus, but they're years will be then flooding, and sometimes this gives a great effect. But as you get closer and closer, for example, and mark photography, it really does become much more important. If you're trying to take a picture off warships head and you focus on the body off the wars , the head will be bloody. So it's something to be considered off, However, the further you move back away from the subject at letters, a much bigger debt field. So rather than having one centimeter where they can move back and forward, you maybe half a meter critic and move back forward and still be in detail. Things that this would be useful for is if you're taking a group picture of people and there is bruise off them three rules you would have to use ah, higher aperture to make sure that all three rows are in focus and not necessarily just the front rule. So if you use the left 1.8 and you were five years away, it would be a good chance you would have front row and focus and not the bathroom, and focus this focal length and distance from subject to the common. Our hearts go a mathematical equation behind it, but that's point in time. I think you should just work with your camera, tried different stops with trying different distances and see what results you get rather than trying to learn the depth of field calculator. There's also ops that can walk a depth of few comfortably a four year, But I think it's just a great way of just using your camera. Trying and living have. It works in different situations with different land sizes the other way. That depth of field is affected, so we have up to changing the aptitude By changing F stop on your camera, you have changing the distance between the camera on the subject. The 3rd 1 is the focal land, so changing the zoom on your Zim lanes are changing prime lands from a 35 millimeters to 200 Melania. This will effect the depth of field again that is also backed up by a mathematical formula But carton fast rails, I would say, is a low ebb stop off 1.82 point a work great on a 50 millimeters 35 millimeters. However, once you get into using maybe a 200 millimeters focal length, you will find a four and a 5.6, still creates a bloody background and doesn't necessarily have to be stopped all the way down. And this is something to think about. When you're considering buying a new lanes, you will find that the Lord the Stopover Lanes it will be more expensive simply because there is more glass required in building the lanes. So if you're looking out 50 millimeter 1.2, it would be much more expensive than 50 Melanie on 1.8. And again, if you're looking at 72 200 zoom lanes and a four, it will be much cheaper than buying 7200. Melanie are, too. It is important to also understand that the death field is no equally distributed. Theorize if the subject is in the middle of the focal length is generally up. Close the depth of field as 1/3 close to the camera and 2/3 away from the camera, however, actually for them for the away from the subject in distance that equal distribution becomes more and more 50 50 just to say slight, subtle point. But something to think about that up close, the depth of field will be one foot in front, off the place you're focusing and 2/3 behind it. Place you're focusing on where you're in a landscape picture and focusing on something wouldn't Destin's. It will become more 50 50 managing and understanding depth of field as one of the most important tools that you should trying to get familiar with with your comma. Because getting sharp pictures is one of the main points off. Taking a picture on having a bloody subject generally means the picture is just what's deleting. So when should I use a shallow depth of field? Showed that fuels are great for taking portrait photography or trying to focus on a mean subject on to distract the viewer's from looking at anything else. You don't want destructions in the background. Therefore, a shallow depth of field will make the means subject a portrait and make a picture off the face. Pop out alos the viewer to focus on what you're exactly trying to get them to focus on. If you watch cinema found your noise. That the person is talking is generally in focus, and the background is very bloody. Unless the director is trying to try to rise to something that's heartening in the bar that is relevant to the film, something to look out for in the next time you watch it felt when you're taking sports, photography is often useful for two focused the viewers attention on the player rather than what's happening in the background and shallow depth. Refuse will give, either by having focus on the player in the background being blood dead, but would still have a feeling off what the background is. In addition to this, the larger the aperture as a the large of the whole and the lands, the more light is being allowed in, and therefore the more light that your letter and the fast shutter speeds that you could have, and it will allow you to use a foster short speed. So if the player is running fast, it will be able to take a full off the player and try and avoid being bloody by the movement off clear running on the field. So what should I use? Higher F Stop on them? A much wider debt for field. The most classic example of this is in landscape photography when you're trying to achieve everything in detail on so I would let me start off F eight or 11 Andi stopped down to F 16 or F 22. If you're Kamenar lies on the shore speed, it doesn't get too long. Create. You're still being able to capture the action. We can talk about our future debt field of mentioning bookie or Booker and Boca. It's just the Japanese ward that has not been used frequently in photography, which means the bloodiness off a background. So I shovel their field. Essentially, that's all you need to know. There is. Many photographers have a style we're trying to achieve as much. Booker is possible on A tends to work very good and portrait photographer to increase depth of field. You want to know your aperture by using a larger F stop, which will give you the largest web of distance off. How much detail will be in your photograph? Moved farther away from the subject. So there is more depth of field short in the focal, and so we use a 35 millimeters 17 millimeters 50 millimeters lands where you can achieve much more depth of field and partisan to using 135 millimeter lands are 200 millimeters focal length. To decrease that field, you want to use a wide aperture, therefore low interest or like 1.8 point 42.8. You want to move closer to the subject. So the camera, the distance between the camera and the subject as much closer and you would like to use ah , higher focal length as in 200 millimeters 400 millimeters 100 millimeter, 235 millimeter. This will create much more bloody effect in the background there for a short day. Feel something to consider when changing F stops on your camera is pretty. You're stopping day from a four. The next stop is normally a fight sex that will be F eight and so forth. Then you go with believes 11 F 16 22 and basically what is happening is your heart thing. They're made of light as light into common. So from every stop that you're changing on your car, it will be reducing the light by half, turning that on its head empty. Stop that you grew up from a 5.624 F four to F. To put a, you'll be doubling the amount of light that comes into your come. In short, our culture has a direct influence on how much off the photograph is in focus. So if you do not change anything thing else with your camera except for the future, you will see that the background gets more bloody when you're using a full stops and the background becomes more detail as you're using high stops. So I think the next step would be for you to pull out your camera. Imported, lost Stop it. Go with the 1.8 2.8 and take some photos from one meter away for me years away, 10 meters away on, then changing the air stopped down to F eight F 16 F 22 depending on how far down your lanes are common. Less capable of going on. Take it. Seen pictures again, One meter to me for me or 10 years and see what the difference says. And you will see newest. How much more detail is in the bucket, friend of one and how much that actually changes the tables picture that you have taken.
4. Depth & Dimension: In this video, we will talk about how to get more dead from your photographs, creating their and a one skip for there's no as hard as it seems. What you're trying to do is make sure that there's something in the foreground middle ground on the back. One of the main challenges for talk for heart is to try and create depth and dimension. Enter Photograph because of photograph is two dimensional and ordered to create a three D affect. It's something that you should consider and your overall approach to composition. Really, it's just a crease off creating debt by making sure that there is something to focus on in the foreground. The middle ground on background on this could be achieved by getting day lore and getting some grass or flowers in the foreground or positioning your commerce. So there's some rocks in one stage late forever in the middle and mountains in the background, rather than just taking a full the mountains, which may look a little bit flat. So consider when taking landscape photographs that in order to create depth and dimension, you're trying to get three foot within one four. Drain middle grand in back. One thing to consider is that if you're using of Lower X stop as an actual off 1.82 point 84 and maybe that the items in the foreground are focus or die. I was in the apartment that focus on from that perspective. You really I don't need to be luring the store or changing where you're focusing on to try to focus in the middle to 3/4 away into the distance. And also we use a high lifestyle rather than focusing on die off this directly in front of the camera, which was actually a bloody back because of the distance between you on the subject is in focus. Onda also affected by the opportunity. If you find that there is in any large rocks or plants and your foreground on, you're thinking, how can I incorporate that? If you compose the foot were slightly different by moving, even just trying to get the flat rocks and one corner off the picture. I would also create, not dead. So if you're standing on the age of of esto taking a picture of a landscape, were there ha a jungle don't lawyer and Hell's in the back phone. If you position comrade slightly to the right and just capture the edge off the Vester that you're standing on the edge of the rocks, it would also create that foreground background without you needing to kneel day law and order to capture something and perhaps miss who is over the edge of what you're looking at . Perspective isn't just something they consider wearing. Taking a photograph off a subject on positioning your subject. Also a good way to think of it. Perspective, as should you be below the subject and direct dialogue with subject or above this subject. For example, if you're shooting a model, a good way to get a nice picture is being above the model and shooting day marks. If you would like to convene power in the picture and powerful person, you would take the photo below. The person should take upwards. Andi On other cases if you want a nice picture, our model a lot of the time you read teeth the pictures from above that model going day boards for a tape of official composition. You could also consider this from landscape point of your most people who go around taking photographs. Take photographs at head height as they're walking around on holiday on, know that many people actually make their for go down more by kneeling or crouching or even sitting camera on the ground and taking a picture from the ground level. And this will create a much more depth in the four additional dimension on. Give you a little bit of uniqueness that isn't seen N s many fours and something that should also consider to create depth, dimension and be slightly different. Too odd to making the pictures more dimensional in terms of having a foreground, a middle grade on a background also could try to make sure that the foreground is in the bottom third of the picture. The middle grain is in the middle. Third on the background is in top thought. This is called the rule of thirds on when you go to crop and you're anything software. Whether this apple for was a light room or four to show you can actually overly threads onto the four on, it will achieve much more pleasing picture to the I F as proportional to the rule of foot. Another approach would be to a frame within a frame. Therefore, when you're looking around and you want to take a picture of a model, have the model stand within a doorway so you have the frame off the doorway on has the wall perhaps graffiti on each side of the doorway and not one frame and then the model and the doorway. That's the second frame. So this is a great way off creating a natural frame without deliberately trying to add something into the front, off the foretell to give that frame within a frame. Another way to achieve a sense of debt on dimension in a photo is simply using away down both lanes and having subject stand further away from the camera. This works in a way that it's capturing much more of a scene as well as the subject on lies that death car. So if you, for example, board a law onto a road, even having that road leading up to the subject and the way down has some off the background place will create that much additional leering effect debt from dimension, another technique that you can use in order to create depth and dimension in your foot drops is to use vertical lines on have possession further and further away from the camera and repetitive type of way, which will generate death to the view by simply annoying that these items are in effect the same size. But as they get smaller than the photograph, it shows they're good example would be fence posts as the fans post is moving down vertically down the middle of the picture. Fan sports that will look smaller and smaller to summarize, controlling the depth of field to increase the depth of field and therefore make a whiter. You would want to use a lower focal length, such as 35 millimeter 17 Melanie, even 50 millimeters. You have one, ah, high store Richard to give you much more detail in these landscape for tours as well is that you would want to position comrade farther away from the subject as possible because the close up to the subject you are the short term debt field that you have to decrease their field. I was in Make the Apter wider, have a little or stop stop 1.4 point 82.84 higher football, and he reduced ah higher focal length lanes. 135 millimeter 200 millimeters give you much more depth field at the at 45 point sex that award focal length would on. You would want to move closer to your subject with common by taking control off your depth of field and understanding after saying you will become a much better photographer and be able to understand what type photograph you're going to get before the before you take it. So, for example, when you're taking a good for, you'll be able to understand how to get three roars off the group and focus. If you're taking a one skate photo, your built understand had to get much more of the picture and focused on. If you're taking a portrait picture or sports event, you're trying to isolate, subject and draw the viewers eyes to that subject. You would know how to lord their store, therefore, make the background more bloody or booking
5. Fill the Frame: this video is about felling the frame. So when you're taking the photograph, you want to try and fill the whole photograph with their subject as much as you possibly can. There shouldn't be anything and four that's really know meant to be there or might detract the viewers attention away from the main subject. This will popular for talk of game tenfold and where was considering every time you come to compose a good composition off your full. One of the best ways to fill the frame is to be as close as your subject. It's possible that there is nothing in the background whatsoever felling your subject with Phil frame leaves, no doubt the view port you're trying to capture. There are two threes to fill the frame with your subject. One is moving closer to the subject with your feet on. The 2nd 1 is to use a telephoto lanes. In both cases, you will find that you will achieve similar results. Okay. Ah, higher focal length will create more compression on the face and the less drawn out, however, and most instances you should just get closer if you do not have a simple lanes and make sure there's no destructing things in the background actually fell frame or with your subject that will increase the intensity with yours. Emotions off having the engage with the foretell. For example, if you take a photo off, portray on your felt the whole portrait frame with the head to the chain, it will automatically create more intensity with the viewer on. They will have to make contact with the eyes and drawing too low characteristics of the face that rankles and bring some much more emotionally closer to the subject. In other words, directly compels a year to make eye contact with that portrayed or the parents and oil Empty spaces can be used to create interest. Within a four, you'll find that most yours will be much more engaged and much more emotionally hoppy with a full that is felling frame with the subject. Draw on having what's the negative space. But as a general rule of thumb, that is one occasions where you would like some negative space. For example, if you were trying to patry, I've only swollen on a late only sworn awake, you would know zoom right in on the sworn just perfected sworn because you're trying to convey the loneliness and the isolation off sworn in the league. And in these instances you would perhaps want to take away down short, half lots of negative space to betray and convenient isolation off that one sworn there. On the other hand, I would suggest taking two fours. One gets close to this one. It's possible on one that shows sworn on its own in isolation on there for you for two pictures for your portfolio so you can use indefinitely seances. So, in effect, filling the frame is another tool in your arsenal off photography on on most occasions and will be more compelling to your picture with lots of negative space. So yes, to reiterate, with physical approximate a crease emotional proximity, closer yard to subject passing the more emotional intensity that will be between the year of the full on the person and not for this doesn't know only just work with people. This could also work well with still life you'll find once you come back from your holidays , that I am. The fault was that you have taken up close. We'll get a much better reaction from family and friends than something that was taken slightly far away. Even know the streaming may be quite right. You know, I make some of it might be bloody, this whole point of view of north for the subject, as in the picture and what you're trying to convey, and the more they can see it will definitely make a much bigger impact on. So when you're thinking about filling frame as well as increasing desert with optical focal length, you can also move with your feet. Get closer to the subject thought way if these two have already occurred, as you can crop that picture, so after imports, you can crop in. But however, if you're not posting just to the Internet and I should crop for the run, you will lose pixels. For example, if it's a 20 megapixel four tour on you, crop in hot and half that for your effectively having a 10 megapixel foot within following on from that. That's something that consider is what is the output off this fool? Is it going to be pretty day as a huge poster? Or it could be posting it on your instagram or Facebook page if people are viewing your full on Instagram, it's more likely that will be on afford. And therefore, if you're not assumed then or moved his closest to the subject, it's possible it's a good chance that your subject will be lost on the small screen are forward. And that's why it's also important to you. Get closer felt filled the frame as much as possible to briefly week up. Felling the flame will create an Edison empire. Removed cloth from the background. Bring a dynamic element to your photo. Some other benefits filling frame are detail. Increased mood and remove unnecessary clutter or distracting back in terms of detail. The closer you are to subject on a person Mawr. You have emotional connection with that subject, and you will see their eyes, the wrinkles on the face. It will emphasize the smile of for smelling for, and these are things that have that connection, and really foot helps you remember them by terms of mood. It's not easy to capture the mood off a person if they are small and in the background, the close of the Arctic subject, the more connection you'll have some more facial features that you'll see and the more expressions a word that you built to connect with. The best way to get rid of one UNP leasing background is to remove that back completely by getting closer and just focusing Philly on the subject that you're trying to get across to the viewer. And that's another reason she tried to fill the frame with person or the main subject as possible.
6. Triangles: In this video, we'll be discussing the use of triangles to better increase your composition and up your photography game triangles. When you're walking around, you'll find are everywhere in every day. Life on. It's just a case of identifying them on, considering what the best way usage are to put them at your foretells. They make great compositional tools because they're easy to make. If you diagonally half square a wreck time, you'll get a triangle. If you're on stairs and you move the camera diagonally, you will create triangles with state of in essence. Once she stopped to be conscious of triangles, you'll find them in everyday life. So why use triangles? You'll find that one should go away and stop taking forwards and become more conscious of. This is not a case of using triangles as a case of their everywhere on How do I use them more effectively, or how to use them properly because is one of the things that will attract viewers eyes to that part, and therefore you should be trying to position your subject or possession the camera in a way that the subject is on one of these triangular lanes or in the corner. Reporting is triangular lines. It is an effect on invisible feature to convey emotion in connection with the view. When considering trying was, you do not necessarily have to always have a physical triangle. And four, you can think of it as positioning people so their heads create a triangle or positioning the way they're looking each other, so their site creates a triangle. The other way is having convention triangles where you do not have the three points of the triangle ended for bought. The way that fool is taken, the everything will create triangle even off the top of full. Having the bomb off a triangle and the bottom of the full on the apex at the top of the full creates an illusion of stability, like competitive mint on you'll find and many different types of architectural photography that this pediment stable form it's used quit taking pictures off buildings. In other words, it's very common. An architect of photography's. For the next time you're looking at some architectural forwards, I have a thing about how this photographer is it built and on invisible triangle into this fall. So if the bottom of a triangle at the bottom of the four on top of triangle at the top. Create stability as you take the triangle or an vector. This creates instability on, creates different states of emotion and ended foretell. And sometimes you can use this deliberately in order to create tension with the view falling one. From this. If you want to create an unstable a motion with the viewer, the best way to do this is to have an inventor triangle with the apex at the ball off the photograph. It's an upside down triangle. In other words, this. We'll create mixed emotions with year on through it on off a little bit. Create more interesting for these types of trying was upside down. Triangles are an excellent way off, making a full interesting that would generally be un interesting or very general. So when you're trying to draw attention to something that is blind or un interesting, using on in very triangle, it's a good way of invoking tension and making it more than tracing. Play. Your tipping foot was off three people, or when you're looking at shorts with three figures and the full, it becomes more upon that people have been positioned in a way or the photographer has waited, so they're in the right position in order to create a triangle between three people are between three heads on. This is another invisible feature that creates more interest from the viewer, and it's more police and psychologically to you. Triangles are a good way of making your focus attention on one part off there for a bit like diagonal legal lines where they will fall triangle lines on you can create attention to where you're aiming for, for example, the head off to make sure that I off one of the points of the triangle. Another way to think a noose trying who's in composition is to Portia model making parties that incorporates triangles, better ties with the arms out that side or airships, putting one need out on increased trying with me and the other leg food in the body. This is the ways off incorporate triangles into proposes to Rekha. There is triumph. Cruise around does try to pause people and ways that creates triangles. Whether that's between their heads, three people or the way that they're looking, one is looking at one. The other one is okay and the other in full of their eyesight. To create that triangle, create triangles with limbs during imposing triangles in the landscape that that's not true or by using half off a square or half of a building rectangular building Why are trying? Was important, as stated with the architectural photography feature. It generates the Bella and also generates a way for the viewers eyes to travel through the full using try analyst. Almost leading lines to sum up triumph was are used in photographs and paintings to convey an image of strength. Leonardo da Vinci uses an invisible triangle in the morning. Lisa, for example, you can also been taking someone's portrait, make them look much more powerful by putting them in a way off triangle to take this a step further, instead of using great lanes as, ah, way to you to compose a football. There was also really called the Golden Triangle, where the foot was split diagonally with triangles instead of things. The great lines to borders over two vertical lines, both something to be considered off on. If you're full show, you can Thomas on and your post editing and look at someone get fours on Think about. If I cropped, it definitely would the be on these definitely diagonal lines and then take that forward when you actually teach short, you can start thinking of extreme with picture along these lines.
7. Gridlines (The Rule of Thirds): In this video, we will be discussing the rule of thirds when approaching the composition off your photography. The rule of thoughts is general rule of foam in terms of composition, and it's one that she's you should consider, especially when you're starting out before moving on to other takes of composition, such as the Golden Triangle. If you think about the rule of thirds being, the picture split up into nine squares have been like tech top tool board, our knots and crosses. If you're in the UK on, you would want to position people's bodies along one off the medical lines with their eyes head were vertical and horizontal line crosses 14 crosses. That's where you would like to position your subject. If it's a landscape full on, if it's a portrait for you want to possession one of the eyes on that cross. The rule of thoughts composition is used a lot and films and TV shores as well. Next time you watch TV show, you'll see that when someone is speaking up close that I will be on that diagonal horizontal, very brittle cross on when two people are speaking to each other with the one that speaking generally reporting is on one of the vertical lines again, When you're taking landscape forwards you, you can look at the landscape being broken down and to foreground. In the bottom section off, the voters are following the metal grained in the middle off the two horizontal lines on sky or the back, right on the top section, but the horizontal lines. By using the four lanes and squares, you can Elaine and balance your photo much more effectively and better. So the next thing you want to take a foot off someone do no necessarily focus with them in the direct center of the picture. Try to move the camera so their body is along one of the horizontal lines on their head, as at one of the cross sections between Horace on on medical lines. This is always the case if you are in the middle of a road, so any cars coming on there is a symmetry. Heartening or a Puritan arch is then, is the right time to prove the model in several of the picture, but otherwise and general always trying to think of the subject and one of these four diagonal cross. Here's where the medical tourism crosses or go on landscapes, trying to break down four growing middle ground background with two horizontal lines. So why do you need to learn about the real of thorns? It's an important concept that gives better violence and alignment your forwards on becomes much more pleasing to the viewers eyes. Some cameras, especially the new ones, have this great real authorities built into them. And I would suggest having that great on at all times on your camera in order to remained yourself off where these points are and to make the everything much easier. So you do not have to slip across or slightly move the picture to make sure that the eye is on actual section off the horizontal and vertical lines. Right now on this camera, I do have the sections on. I trust it will be. I'm generally my head is on that horizontal vertical line. On the bottom, for his own medical line is fear. The blaze. These things are and two subjects connected together by a diagonal line. But the idea that my head is on this horizontal vertical like here in the cameras on this vertical horizontal line there. So to reiterate, when euro landscapes rather than have the horizon across the middle of for trying to position it so that the horizon is either running along the bottom horizontal line on top. Horizontal line on Tried to subject such a tree or an animal possession. Create the horizontal lines. Meet one good way off retrospectively. Doing this is in cropping on most cropping software on anything software hospice for was harder. Late room hazard before you can do is try. Go back through the fools you already put on the grid lane to see which ones are already doing this. You may already be doing this subconsciously f nor secret ones that you can perhaps crop and move. So the subject, as in one of these crosshairs or the C s on one of these horizon or the horizon as on one of these horizontal lines probably well, look like a better picture. And it's something that we should could do with a foolish, already hard and Landon logical and just see the difference for your sales with pictures that you've taken. So I'll finish on. The rule of thoughts isn't the be all and end all but it's definitely a great tool, Tahar, and is one that you should understand and think about when you do approach your composition and you're framing off the short take actual progress. There is other taste of composition that you can think off. However, it's a good one to start with and before you start to try and break. The tried and tested methods certainly give a goal, nor better. I use that for most of my fours, and I think about almost every time I go to take a full some good for talking. First to check out would be Hansel Adams, and he's landscape fours. He wrestled who street photography on has a lot of these horizontal or vertical lines. Bell and Israel is. He uses a lot triangles, which we discuss that another video toe. Go and check out. Go and take some for yourself and every time before you collect that sharp on. Beacon said that it off as the bodies subject along these vertical lines as my high rising or as sea or the road, or the pavement or the wall along one of these horizontal lines, and build up before that way and you'll find it becomes a much more engaging, much more stable picture. More violence full that people can engage with people can really like. Thank you for watching this tutorial video. I hope you enjoy there Next day. Testicle would actually apply these techniques on away practice with your own commerce. Hope to see you in the next course. Go and enjoy what you've learned today and happy talk a few.
