I am taking a photographic composition class this semester and I think you guys might enjoy some of the exercises we are doing in class. They are listed below, all are taken with our SLR and no cropping or photoshop. The point is to frame and compose properly in the camera.
This past week we did:
Frame within a Frame
Horizontal objects taken both horizontally and vertically
Vertical objects take both vertically and horizontally
Low, Middle and High Horizon landscape shots
This week we are doing the following:
Johannes Itten's Contrasts with the following contrasting pairs to choose from:
Point/Line
Plane/Volume
Large/Small
High/Low
Long/Short
Broad/Narrow
Thick/Thin
Light/Dark
Black/White (with color photo)
Much/Little
Straight/Curved
Point/Blunt
Horizontal/Vertical
Diagonal/Circular
Area/Line
Area/Body
Line/Body
Smooth/Rough
Hard/Soft
Still/Moving
Light/Heavy
Transparent/Opaque
Continuous/Intermittent
