Photographic Composition

Aug

2005

While tons and tons of sites focus (no pun intended) on the shutter speed, f-stop, etc. portion of digital photography, the simple reality is this. Decent composition will save an otherwise crappy photograph while the reverse isn't true. Composition is the rockbed of good photography and Lifehut has as concise a
Photography Composition Introduction as you'll find for free. Read it, learn it, do it.
