U/W Photo Course

Learn u/w photography the easy way!


There we are then, possibly trapped into searching for shapes to position, and using terms such as stability, dynamics and movement.

Any formula is far too simplistic and photography-by-numbers is not much fun. The last thing that runs through most peoples' mind when taking a shot is mathematics!

However, all things being equal, good composition will make any shot better. Don't ignore composition - it matters, it works.

Composition is the difference between pictures and snaps

DO
  • keep it simple
  • always shoot upwards
  • move in close
DON'T
  • stick it in the middle
  • look down on a subject

Remember: Rules are made to be broken
