Majority are are not aware of the fact what makes a photograph stand out. The key word here is a good photograph should be well composed. Though there are numerous books dealing in composition giving information about good photography, the tips mentioned below by Silvestri Studios (dealing with photography Norwich) can be handy as well.


Let’s have a look at the elements that create a great photograph -

  • Move a bit close to the subject. If a particular subject has caught your eye move in closer to get a better shot.
  • It is not necessary to have a perfectly focused frame. So, frame your subject well and use the frames effectively. 
  • Employ the rule of thirds. Draw three imaginary lines horizontally as well as vertically across the same picture. The point where the lines intersect is the most important part of your subject. Follow this principle while taking a photograph using this principle by centering the subject. This way you can add more drama to the photograph.
  • A strong photograph often composes the subject in a diagonal line. A look at the classic pictures of still life further illustrate the fact. So, make use of diagonals.
Out of the five elements any one do have the potential to move your photographs a step away from a simple photograph. The more elements you use in one image, the closer you will get to that perfect photograph! Use all five and create a masterpiece.
