Compostion Techniques

A composition technique that I found that we did not learn about in the reading is patterns. You can take photos highlighting the patterns and you can take photos of patterns being broken.
Emphasizing the pattern by filling the frame will give the impression of size and large numbers. If you take a picture of bricks close up, it will make it look like the bricks will go on forever. You can also take a picture of a pattern that is interrupted. You should also pay attention to where in the picture the pattern is broken because it changes the emphasis of the picture and the objects in it. This is just one of the composition techniques that I found when researching.


These are the sites that I found the pattern research on--
