What is Composition?


1.     What is composition
Composition is the arrangement of all the visual elements within the frame of your photograph. 

2.     What is it important to understand & utilize composition in photography? 
The most important elements in photography are line, texture, shape, light, motion, and perspective. I agree with all these because when you combine all of these elements in your photo, you can come up with an amazing photo.  

3.     Describe aspects of a “snapshot”. 
A snapshot is a casual record of some event, person, or even objects. These shots are used to "capture the memory" and usually don't have much thought going into them. 

4.     Describe aspects of a “photograph”. 
A photograph is an artistic interpretation of an event, person, or an object. Its purpose is to tell a story or something about its subject.

5.     “Photography is the art of ____DISCOVERY______”

a.     Describe what interests you the most about this art form or what drew you to this form of communication.
I was intrigued by photography because I have the freedom to control and establish a story behind a photo instead of just capturing a random moment. As a photographer, I love that I can put thought into a picture and it has a lot of meaning in it and shares a moment or memory every time a viewer looks at it.
