May never have imagined, that the actual composition of the settings can be highlighted the main subject. Even less will support the success of the photographs that we create.
Definition of Composition
Composition is simply defined as a way of arranging the elements in the picture , these elements include line , shape , color , light and dark . The most important aspect of the composition is the generating visual impact ( an ability to convey the feelings you want to express in the photo ) . By composition , the photo will look more attractive and pleasing to the eye with length and perbandaingan objects that support in a photograph . Thus the need to organize such a way that goals can be achieved , whether it be to convey the impression of static and silent or something surprising . In the composition there is always one point that first attracted attention .
Set goals Composition In Photography
1 . By adjusting the composition of the picture , we can also build the " mood " of a photo and the overall balance of the object .
2 . Compiled into an embodiment of the idea of drafting a good image so as to create a unity (unity ) in the works .
3 . Trained eye sensitivity to capture the various elements and aesthetic sense honed in personal photographer .
line
This composition is formed from a dynamically packaging line good straight line, circular / curved. Usually this composition could create the impression of depth and motion in an image object. When the lines are used as subjects, who happens to attract attention is the photo. Not important whether it is a straight line, circular or curved, bringing the eyes out of the picture. Important that the lines become dynamic.
form
The composition of the photographer is usually used to visually emphasize the abstract quality to an object. Usually the most common form of the composition is used as squares and circles.
color
Color gives an elegant and dynamic impression on a well-composed photograph when. Sometimes the color composition can also give the impression of elegance and perfectly able to bring up the "mood color" (color harmony) a photograph, especially in photos - photos "pictorial" (Photo accentuating the beauty
Dark and Light
This composition is actually used by photographers in the era of analog photography is growing rapidly, especially in black and white photography. However, now, in the middle - the middle of the composition of the digital age is starting to be reapplied. Pengkomposisian now dark and light are used for emphasis visuality an object. We can use this composition with good contrast if we are able to observe an object and should pay attention to the environment around the object that is felt disturbing that if it makes the game a dark light photos will be lost.
texture
That is the order which gives Ksan about the state of an object These surfaces (smooth, rough, irregular, irregular, sharp, soft, etc.). The texture will appear from the dark shadows and contrasting light or arising from lighting when shooting.
Application of Composition in Photography
In packing a photograph that seemed dynamic and cause harmony need an understanding of the rules
The rules of composition Which include:
Rule of Thirds (third section)
On general rules of photography, photo field is actually divided into 9 equal parts. The third part is a technique in which we put the object in a third part of the picture. This is very different from the common where we always put the object in the middle of the field photo
Shooting angle (Angle of View)
One element that builds a photo's composition is the angle of the object. Angle of the object is determined by the purpose shooting. Thus if we get one moment and want to get the best results,
Do not ever be afraid to take pictures from different angles. Start with the standard (parallel to the object), then try it with different points of view from the top, bottom, side to the extreme corners.
Format: Horizontal and vertical
Proportion rectangle in the viewfinder of the camera allows us to take pictures using the landscape format (horizontal) or portrait (vertical). Format shooting can cause different effects on the final composition.
Dimension
Although the two-dimensional photograph storytelling, which means that all recorded on one field. However, the actual picture could be made impress have depth, as if the third dimension. The main element is the distance form the dimensions, dimension can be formed when the distance, if we show a one-dimensional object in the distance will be formed in each element. To create a dimensional game space is needed sharp, bright and dark game line.
Shooting angle (Camera Angle)
In order photo photography we produce has value and impress beautiful to watch on the issue of the use of a good shooting angle. In photography is known 3 camera angles are fundamental, namely:
Bird Eye :
The camera angles, the position of objects on the bottom / lower than our stand. Usually pengmbilan picture angle is used to show what is being done object (HI), what are the elements that exist around objects, and giving the impression of a comparison between overview (overall) environment with a POI (Point Of Interest).
High Angle :
High view. that is to say, the photographer is in a higher position of the object image.
Eye Level :
Angle shots where the object and the camera parallel / same as the eye can see. Typically used to generate the impression of thoroughly and evenly against the background of an object, highlight the expressive side of an object (HI), and usually shooting angle is also intended to position the camera at eye level objects lower than in our example, kids - kids.
Low Angle :
Shooting is done from the bottom. Shooting angle where the object is higher than the position of the camera. Pengembilan corner of this image is used to photograph the architecture of buildings in order to impress a sturdy, stately and towering. Namu, did not rule can also be used for shooting models that seem elegant and graceful.
Frog Eye :
Limited viewing angle frog eyes. At this point the camera at the bottom of the bottom, almost parallel to the ground and was not exposed to the top. Usually this is done in such photographing war and to photograph the flora and fauna.
Field Of View
Some commonly used type of composition in terms of size (field of view) to be taken are as follows:
a. Extreme Close Up
Taking pictures is very close to the object, so the object details like skin pores will be clearly visible.
b. Head Shot
Limited shooting head to chin.
c. Close Up
Shooting from the top of the head to the shoulders.
d. Medium Close Up
Shooting from the top of the head to the chest.
e. Mid Shot (half body)
Shooting from the top of the head to the waist.
f. Medium Shot (Three-quarters of the body)
Shooting from the top of the head to the knees.
g. Full Shot (whole body)
Shooting from the top of head to toe.
h. Long Shot
Taking pictures with the giving portion of the background or foreground more visible so that small or distant objects.
Some species composition in terms of the number of man as an object to be photographed is as follows:
a. One Shot
Shooting for one person as an object.
b. Two Shot
Shooting for two people as objects.
c. Three Shot
Shooting for three people as objects.
d. Group Shot
Shooting for a group of people as objects.
Some things to note in shooting, including :
Headroom
a space above the head which serves to limit the frame and the top of the head object.
Noseroom
viewing direction or the movement of objects in a frame, aims to provide a view of giving the impression that the object is indeed looking at something.
Foreground
everything from the foreground object.
Background
everything becomes a background object.
