Composition in Photography – David DesRochers Sparta Camera Club Sparta Ambulance Building 14 Sparta Ave. Sparta NJ info@spartacameraclub.org
Photography is an art form and the elements of composition are like the paints on an artist’s palette. Understanding these elements and knowing how to apply them effectively can be the difference between taking a snap shot and creating a work of art. In addition to discussing the basic “rules of composition,” David will guide you through the process of blending compositional elements, such as light, color, and texture and you will have a better understanding of what it takes to create a compelling photograph.
