    Balance
    Centre Balance: if you put your subject in the middle of the picture, it will
    always balance. But centre is the dead spot that means nothing moves,
    very static, very official and perhaps, very boring.
    Symmetrical: this will be used when two things need to be together, side by
    side. But to make them united, there must be something to link those two.
    Asymmetrical : This is often used in composition since it will give you a
    dynamic look. But when you use this, you have to concern about the space
    and the proportion to have a good balance for your picture and most of the
    time, the rule of thirds will be applied in this case

    in color, size,

    could affect the

    RHYTHMS & SPACE


    For moving subject, Rhythms
    mean the way the subject
    moves or the right moment of
    the movement, the peak of
    action which gives the nicest
    look of the subject.
    For still subject, Rhythms
    mean spacing. With a good
    spacing, the picture will look
    neat, not confused, and the
    subject will stand out.
