Make your frame more exciting
People do fancy photography from the very beginning of the camera days. Opportunity has increased with the development of camera. Nowadays many editing software are available in order to make the photograph look even more attractive. But isn’t it sounds even good to make it beautiful while you click it. It does not only sounds good but give happiness as well. Photography is all about visual art. It is meant for looking good. Generally people like to capture whatever they see with their naked eye. But there are some specific rules and trick to make it beautiful that may appear attractive to eyes.
Rule of 3rd: it is one of the most important rules that you may come across for each every frame you shot. This rule is being created to make the photograph look interesting and attractive. If it is being done properly for a photograph, it has the capability to provide optimum visual pleasure. This rule deals with the subject placement during the framing time. In this rule, the entire frame is being divided into nine equal boxes. Two horizontal grid lines divide the frame into three equal segments. Two vertical grid lines divide the frame into three equal vertical segments. Most of the time people keep the object at the centre and click the photograph. It might serve the purpose of capturing the object but there is nothing interesting to look for. Putting the subject in the centre is nothing but boring photography. The grid lines are most important significance in photography. The one and only task is to put the subject on the grid line or in the 3rd segment from each side. It is important to judge the subject. If the subject is horizontal, you need to put the subject on the horizontal gridline and if it is vertical, vertical gridline should find it.
Avoid mergers: inexperience might lead you to some funny mistakes. Many times you will find that if there is more than one object in the frame, they dramatically find some same line position along with virtual z axis. For example, many times you may find that someone is standing right in front of the tree. The 2D photographic illusion might bring some impression that the tree has grown over the head and it will appear to be something funny. In these cases, it is better to stand one object beside other.
Unwanted object: once you have crafted your frame with your idea, you need to make sure that the entire frame is perfect in your eyes. Sometimes many unwanted object appears in the frame at the time of capturing. The blur appearance of the object irritates the eyes of the viewers.
Figure placing: every object that finds some place in your photography has some unique shapes and figures. It is important to understand the weight of figure frame appearance. It is better to place the heavy object to left of the frame (right in your view). Putting heavy object to the photographic right side is kicker for eyes. We have the habit of watching from left to right.
