What is Composition?

Composition is...

...the arrangement of visual elements within the frame of a photograph.


Why is it important to understand and utilize composition in photography?

You have to understand the "rules" of photography in order to be able to bend them creatively to create a meaning. t's how you use it that makes it interesting. 

Aspects of a "snapshot"

A casual record of some event, person, or object. The picture is clear enough to preserve a memory. 

Aspects of a "photograph"

An artistic interpretation of an event, person, or object. It's purpose is to tell the viewer something - what the object was like.  

"Photography is the art of...

...discovery."
