Come and join us as we explore composition in photography. Composition is one of the most critical elements in photography. Composition is how a photographer arranges the visual elements within their image, frame. I promise you that if you search for information on composition you will find plenty. You will find formal rules and opinion, some of which you can trace back to historical art movements and painters. Even in the digital world, composition remains the key to creating strong images. Composition is what guides our eye through an image and gives importance to the subject. It creates the story for the viewer and is how we as photographers convey that message. This meetup will explore composition using our frame and tools available to us as the photographer.
