When you compose a frame to shoot a photograph, you are utilizing a vision that is uniquely yours in the way you see the world and how you want it shown in the photo. This makes composition a very subjective aspect of a photo: the first choice being what subject to choose to photograph and the next one being how to shoot it.
With time and practice, you usually develop your own photography style, but if you are starting out in photography or haven’t quite found your unique creative style yet, we have put together some free eBooks to help you get going. Be sure to check them out.
