Composition "Masterclass" from iconic National Geographic photographer Steve McCurry

Dear fellow LGs,

This is my favourite video about photography composition from my favourite photographer Steve McCurry.

You will find this video explained some basic concepts/rules as following:

  • Rule of Thirds (lines, intersecting points)

  • Leading lines (lead eyes to the subject)

  • Diagonal lines (create movements)

  • Framing

  • Figure to ground (contrast between subject and background)

  • Center dominant eye

  • Get closer to the subject

  • Patterns and repetition - Symmetry

Please also share your tips!

ENJOY!
