Composition 1by ~photo-class

Resources & Stock Images / Tutorials / Photography

©2003-2013 ~photo-class

First article in our process to get the notion of photography composition layed down.

This article deals with an introduction to the idea of composition, the notion of frame, the rule of thirds and notions on horizon placement.

Please leave us comments if you found this helpful, if you find errors/mistakes or if you have ideas on how to improve it. Feedback is of great importance, and very welcome.
