An Art Form

Photography as long been the task of capturing a moment in time and displaying that moment so others can share moments in the past.  There is much more to photographing an object, or person than pressing the shutter button at the right moment.

Having all the technical tools and tricks at your disposal will enable you to capture a photograph, but it may not be something you will be proud to hang on your living room wall.
In the links below we will discuss "Composition", using the semi-automatic features of your digital camera to "your advantage".

The links within this section may be heavy in graphic representations to aid you in seeing how to apply these general rules.  The rules of composition are not cast in concrete, they are a guide to point you in the right direction, and under some conditions can be broken and smashed to dust.
