Use a combination of compositions to make your photos more stable and impressive

When I first picked up the camera, I was told that "composition is important!" to stabilize a photo.

Third composition, Hinomaru composition, diagonal composition, radiation composition, triangle composition... I tried to study from books and the internet, but most of the examples are landscape photographs. At first, I didn't know how to use the basic composition for portraits, and I spent my days worrying.

Therefore, I would like to explain how to use the basic composition in portraits in several parts with examples.

So far, I have introduced each composition, but this time it is an application version. By combining multiple compositions, you can create a more stable and impressive photo, so here are some examples.

Triparting & Hinomaru

By using a combination of compositions, is more stable and impressive

Radial & Diagonal

diagonal & symmetry

Frame & Symmetry

Divided into two & Hinomaru

Fibonacci spiral composition

Also, although it is not a combination, I will introduce the "Golden ratio (Fibonacci spiral composition)" at the end. I will omit the explanation of the golden ratio, but it is a universal composition that can be seen on the scale of nature.
