composition + silhouettes

1.Framing can be used within the composition of a shot to help you highlight your main point of interest.

2. Perspective is when a shot is taken from another element that can have a big impact an image.

3.There can be a fine line between filling your frame with your subject and creating a nice sense of intimacy and connection.

4. Balance in a photograph is when you have to many points of interest in one section of your photograph can leave to heavy or complicated in that section.

5. The good and bad points of using color in a photo are that bright colors can add vibrancy and interest but the bad part about it is that if it is put in the wrong position they can also distract viewers of an image away from the focal points.



1.The silhouettes stand out because of the combination of their simplicity but also the story that they convey.

2.The strategy you’ll need to employ in taking silhouette shots is to place your subject(the shape you want to be blacked out)in front of some source of light and to force your camera to set its exposure based upon the brightest part of your picture (the background)and the subject of your image.

3.To get your light right you’ll need to throw out a lot of what you’ve learnt about normal photography and think a little backwards. Instead of lighting the front of your subject, in silhouettes you need to ensure that there is more light shining from the background than the foreground of your shot.

4.The light source should be back rather than the front. The perfect light for this is placing your subject in front of a sunset or sunrise.

5.The background of a silhouette should be a bright cloudless sky with the sun setting. you want to position the brightest light source behind your subject either so that they hide it or so that in the background somewhere.

6.When framing you’ll probably want to photograph silhouette people as profiles rather than looking straight on this means that more of their features (nose, mouth, eyes) are outlined and they are more likely to be recognized.
