There are many composition methods in photography, including "diagonal composition method", "golden section composition method", "symmetrical composition method", "aerial view composition method" and other methods.

The characteristics and applications of these composition methods will be discussed in detail below.

1. Diagonal composition method.

Diagonal composition is a commonly used composition method. It can enhance the dynamic sense and visual impact of the picture by arranging the main elements along the diagonal.

When using the diagonal composition method, you need to pay attention to the proportion and direction of elements, as well as the coordination between the background and the subject.

2. Golden section composition method.

The golden section composition method is a composition method based on the golden ratio. According to the rounding method, the picture is divided into a ratio of 3:2 or 5:3, and the proportion and balance of the picture are adjusted by arranging the subject near these intersection points.

When using the golden section composition method, you need to be careful to avoid making the picture too deliberate and stiff.

3. Symmetrical composition method.

The symmetrical composition method is very common, and the elements in the picture are mirror-symmetrical to achieve a harmonious and balanced effect.

When using the symmetrical composition method, you need to pay attention to the size and position of symmetrical elements, and whether it will cause visual fatigue.

4. High-altitude bird's-eye view composition method.

The high-altitude bird's-eye view composition method can create a bird's-eye view visual effect, which is generally used in landscape and cultural photography to show unique picture effects and details.

When using the high-altitude bird's-eye view composition method, you need to pay attention to choosing the shooting angle, adjusting the point selection and placement, highlighting the theme and creativity of the picture, and the background foil, etc.

5. Radial symmetry composition method.

The radial symmetry composition method is a composition method that uses central symmetry as the main method. It has strong cohesion and visual appeal, and can bring a very obvious sense of dynamics.

When applying the radial symmetry composition method, you need to pay attention to choosing the subject and background to make it more consistent with the characteristics of the composition.

In short, different photographic composition methods are suitable for different situations and scenes. When using these composition methods, you need to combine the actual situation and creativity to achieve the best effect and visual effect.
