Composition- how a master does it
April 3rd, 2009. Filed under: Thinking about Photography and Art.Kia ora tatou:
This weekend, I will be teaching a workshop on Composition and visual design ( not the same thing at all).
While I was doing some research, I came across this video clip on YouTube, where master documentary photographer Sam Abell, who used to shoot for National Geographic, talks about the secrets of his compositional success.I learned a similar technique years ago when doing a workshop with Magnum photographer, David Hurn.
I strongly recommend it. It is so simple, and yet so effective.
Enjoy.
