The joy of photography is how you frame and compose a scene! <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I remember when I discovered that my Canon SD 600 digital point and shoot camera had a “rule of thirds” grid, I was enthralled! To me, it opened up a whole new world of photography to me; the fun challenge and the game of composition. Even now, I am endlessly fascinated with composition. Just how simple yet elusive composition is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, a lot of the compositional principles are very simple. Diagonals, curves, dynamic (off center) compositions are generally more powerful and interesting to look at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a long time, I’ve always been curious about “the secret” of making great compositions. But now, I’m more interested in composition for fun; the fun visual challenge of arranging all of the different visual elements within the rectangle of our viewfinder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In short, photography is a game with arranging puzzle pieces in our viewfinder. Photography is visual play!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
