Art should not be conditioned by anyone’s economic resources, it is a pity that there are such expensive cameras, I always recommend my readers get a good quality lens, but when I see the prohibitive prices of certain lenses, I am in a deep depression. What if you have money and economic opportunities, you get a good camera, very cool, that does everything, but if you don’t, you get bored?
Fortunately, in photographic art there are fundamental elements for the success of a photograph that have nothing to do with the expensive or cheap camera, nor with the lens, nor with any of the accessories that make up the equipment. Example.
- If you don’t know how to correctly compose a photo.
- The most expensive and advanced camera will become a useless plastic in your hands.
- Composition is not one more thing you can acquire.
- It is a ‘skill’.
- It’s an artistic sensibility.
- A Constant Training inspiration.
- An active photographic eye at all times.
- Photographic composition is probably the most “artistic” aspect of photography.
- The composition is equivalent to the rest of the artists.
- Like literary.
- Musical composition.
- Etc.
- There is photographic composition.
- Isn’t it one thing to know how to play the guitar.
- And another is to compose songs with it?.
Composing is creating from scratch, composing is seeing where many, perhaps most, have not seen anything, when you compose a photograph you discover something new for the rest of mortal, boring and tired of always seeing the same thing.
Do you like to compose?
You may like photography, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you want to compose. You may like to look at good pictures, but you don’t have the patience to work “yourself” on this photograph. Or maybe your trick is to photograph the minimum, in fully automatic mode, and strictly what it takes, to immortalize a birthday and nothing else. Maybe you’re the kind of person who would pay anything for a camera so advanced, so advanced that it does everything for you, not just the automatic mode settings, but also the composition. Let’s say that a robot camera, with wheels, goes down the street, talks, greets, rotates on its own axis, positions, frames, beeps and lights small lights all the time, concentrates and films what you asked for. Back home, he brings you a bread bar if necessary.
You wouldn’t like that?Do you want to be the creator and architect of photography?If a robot or computer program did it for you, would you feel like you’re missing something or that you’re missing it yourself in the Do you think our little robot could never represent how you feel inside in a photograph completely orchestrated by him, despite his little lights and adorable beeps?
Do you like to compose?
There are those who find it very difficult to acquire these skills, perhaps because they have them naturally, others need to learn and strive, but in the end, if you are passionate, you end up composing as a true teacher. Here are the 4 most important elements, in my opinion, that you should be careful if you want to master the photographic composition:
In our survey of last year’s VIP readers blog, we identified the composition as one of the areas where our readers needed training most, from there, the entire editorial team began working on a new book entirely dedicated to photographic composition, a topic on which I had long wanted to publish a book because the articles were not enough to cover it all , so we bet on a publication where we cover everything relevant in terms of composition, everything an amateur or beginner photographer would need to know. The book won’t make up for you? but it will guide you through the moments when you’re faced with a flat, bum, monotonous, and seemingly empty frame. Among the pages of the book, you’ll find clues about the composive elements you have on your fingertips (and I probably don’t know) to get that big picture her brain may have seen and her heart felt, but her camera hasn’t done it yet.
