This Week's Featured Linkup - Photography Basics: The Art of Composition

It's time for my 6th Linkup Feature...

Halie over at Shutterscapes hosts the linkup called 'Photography Basics: The Art of Composition' on her blog. She has included the details of her linkup below:


According to the book (The Art of Composition by Bert Kragges which inspired the meme), the exercises in the book were designed to help photographers to develop their skills in composition and perception.

The basic rule is to shoot your photographs in Monochrome (from camera and not shot in color, then converted to black and white). According to what I've read, it will help one enhance his/her skills in perception and recognize elements like edges, spaces and the relationships between objects without introducing the more complicated elements of manipulation of hue, intensity of color and the likes. The exercise is geared towards the use and hopefully the mastery of lights and the play of shadows in a photograph.



Back to Basics


'Photography Basics: The Art of Composition' will now be included on my list of  linkups under the tab 'Other Linkups' found at the top of my page. Halie, please be sure to include my button below on your blog so others can find their way to this helpful list of linkups.
