How do Photographers do it? Learning how to use the Rules of the thirds, learning about the lines that are found in photography. Learning how to shoot fresh shot, Photographers knows how to do it all with just a few simple steps.

The rules of thirds; the standard behind the rules of thirds is to image breaking a image down into thirds, So that you have a parts that are vertical and horizontal. The Rules of thirds identifies four important parts of an image that photographers should consider placing point of interest in, as they frame their image. The rules of third also gives photographers four useful lines that are useful when position for elements in their photo. The concepts is that if you place point of interest in the intersection along the lines in your image, the image would become more balance and will enable a viewer of the images to impact with more naturally.

Working with lines in photography. The lines can be found in images are very powerful elements. They are three types of lines that can be found Horizontal, Vertical, and diagonal. When framing an image, each one of these lines has a different impact that a photographer should look for. There’s something about a horizontal line in an image that conduct a message of stability. Horizons are the most common horizontal lines to be found in photography. If often acts as a dividing point in a photograph. Horizon should generally not be placed in the middle of a frame. It leaves an image with sense of feeling unsettled compositionally. A diagonal line works well to get the full gaze at an image as an image viewer though the photograph. Diagonal lines can add a sense of action to an image and acts as a dynamic look and feel. Diagonals lines that repeat throughout an image can create very effective patterns that can become the subject of photograph themselves. Vertical lines have the ability to convey a variety of different models, in a photograph ranging from power and strength. Vertical lines can be always found in repeated patterns in many images.

Finding fresh angles to shoot from, one of the most effective ways to make your digital images more interesting to eyes, is the character of the angle you are shooting from.

When using these three steps in photography, you will be able to master having a masterpiece in an image. To learn how to take the rules of thirds using lines in photography, and how to take fresh shot will help you learn how to develop images from pattern and to make you a better photographer in every step and way.

Symmetry And Asymmetry






Symmetry is same amount a space on either side of an imaginary center line.
Asymmetry is the opposite of symmetry, it does not contain the same amount of space on each side of the imaginary line.
My photography demonstrated these two concepts in the way they were taking, my images were taking from angles that would be proven fact that they are Asymmetry and Symmetry.
My biggest challenge with this assignment was to actually get the image at the perfect angle and to get all the images right, which would go with its definition to tell the story.
My biggest success with this assignment was to succeed in accomplishing this work without any problems or frustrations.
