Part 1: Building Blocks of Composition for Photographers

This tutorial will help photographers at all levels of expertise improve their compositional skills to create more impactful images. Basic principles of composition addressed in Part 1 include Lines, Shapes & Forms, Subject Placement, Patterns & Repetition, Contrast, and Texture. This presentation was given to the North Shore Photographic Society in Vancouver, BC, in October of 2020 (some adaptation done since then). Part 2 is also available on this channel.
