Rule Of Thirds

▪ The rule of thirds is a method of

composition in photography in
which an image is divided equally
into thirds, both horizontally and
vertically, and the image's subject
is positioned where those lines
intersect, making the image more
visually appealing.

Leading Lines

▪ Leading lines are lines that the

photographer has carefully framed
within an image that are designed to
attract the viewer's attention to a
particular point of interest. These lines
often lead the viewer's eyes, hence
the name, in a specific direction or to
a specific area of the photograph.

Frame within a Frame

▪ Frame within a Frame is when a

photographer uses the
scene/environment around them to frame
their main subject. This technique is good
as it can offer a somewhat flat and dull
picture more depth and layers.
