Publisher's summary
In Photography Composition, you will find all you need to know to learn the basics of composition. It will teach you the proper terms and ways to apply rules that you might already know instinctively yet not quite understand why they work the way they do.
Here's a preview of what you'll learn:
- Happy accidents: This tip teaches you how to pay attention to the following rules in order to replicate happy accidents and to be able to more purposefully craft your photographs.
- Rule of thirds: It teaches you where to place points of interest in your photos.
- Leading lines: This tip shows you how lines can help move a viewer's eye around the composition.
- Move around: Moving around gives you access to different perspectives, which might actually bring better compositions than what you first assumed.
- Horizon lines: Different from leading lines, horizon lines break up the frame into two parts.
- Shape: You will learn how to utilize shape that already exists in the frame and how to create it where you want it using points of interest.
- Foreground and background: This tip mentions usage of midground and why you should take advantage of the entire depth of your frame, not just the immediate foreground.
- Weight: You can give weight to your photos by placing a "heavier" subject to one side or the top or bottom of a frame.
- Juxtaposition: This basically means that you will place two opposite things side by side.
- Balance: Balance - ironically, you may think - is achieved in odd numbers.
- Tension: You can create tension by examining the relationships of your subjects and composing them accordingly.
- Framing: Framing can dramatically alter a viewer's perception of a scene.
- Color: Color can often be used as a crutch by new photographers.

If you want to create interesting photos that will go above Instagram selfies and vacation memories, you need to switch to manual mode.

It’s easy to get overwhelmed. Auto mode is the safest bet, and it served you well up until now.

He wished he had a mentor to show him the way. He struggled for a decade using trial and error before finding eventual success.

Black and white photography is considered by some to be more difficult than color photography, simply because color ceases to be an element in the finished product. However, it is still an element to be considered while shooting, because color affects what greys, whites, and blacks you get as a result. Black and white can make your photos much simpler, pared down to the basics. This can make photographs appear more serious or scary, or even take away considerations of decade or century.

Story
Fresh off the success of her groundbreaking first play, A Raisin in the Sun, Lorraine Hansberry's The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window tells the tragicomic story of a young bohemian couple in New York's Greenwich Village, struggling to do what's right in a world that rewards everything that's wrong. Sidney is a dreamer who wants his own Walden Pond; Iris is a budding actress whose own backstory is a performance. They're caught in a moment where, "the world is about to crack right down the middle," as the play tackles racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, liberal complacency, and more.

Story
The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

No one other than Warren Zanes, rocker and writer and friend, could author a book about Tom Petty that is as honest and evocative of Petty's music and the remarkable rock and roll history he and his band helped to write. Born in Gainesville, Florida, with more than a little hillbilly in his blood, Tom Petty was a Southern shit kicker, a kid without a whole lot of promise. Rock and roll made it otherwise.

The New York Times best-selling biography of an American comedy legend. After three years of sobriety, Chris Farley's life was at its creative peak until a string of professional disappointments chased him back to drugs and alcohol. He fought hard against them, but it was a fight he would lose in December 1997. Farley's fans immediately drew parallels between his death and that of his idol, John Belushi. Without looking deeper, however, many failed to see that Farley was much more than just another Hollywood drug overdose. In this officially authorized oral history, Farley's friends and family remember his work and life.

First published in 1973, this is a study of the force of photographic images, which are continually inserted between experience and reality. When anything can be photographed, and photography has destroyed the boundaries and definitions of art, a viewer can approach a photograph freely, with no expectations of discovering what it means. This collection of six lucid and invigorating essays, with the most famous being "In Plato's Cave", make up a deep exploration of how the image has affected society.

I wish it was a longer book
I think this book was packed with a lot of useful information, but it felt rushed and quickly spoken. I would have loved more examples or to take more time explaining when to use which method, for example describing some famous photos to break down why it worked.
Thanks though for writing this, and I will definitely listen through a few more times to try and absorb more the next time through.
