BASIC RULES FOR A CORRECT PHOTOGRAPHY

A well composed photograph is really a matter of opinion, but there are a few tricks that tend to result in better pictures. That's what we're going to take a look at today.

Rule of thirds.

The rule of third is the simplest rule of composition. All you have to do is take your frame and overlay a grid of nine equal sections.

This means you must split the vertical space into three parts and the horizontal space into three parts mentally. Is very important that you place the subject at some point of intersection of the lines. This photo illustrates it perfectly.

Perspective

Photographing your subject straight-on is sometimes the right choice, but you have to create visual impact by moving the camera left, right, above, and below. When you're beneath the subject it often makes them/it appear more powerful to the viewer. Conversely, when you're above the subject it makes them/it appear more diminutive. You can use this to an extreme for a powerful impact, but it must be also a very good subtle technique for portraits. Slight positioning above or below the subject have to subconsciously imply aggressiveness and passivity (respectively) without being too obvious..

Use Shapes and Lines to Draw the Eye to a Specific Point

The viewer's eye doesn't magically end up looking at one of the intersections in the rule of thirds grid, it's just more natural. That said, you have to draw the eye elsewhere you can accomplish that pretty easily by choosing where you place shapes and lines in your photograph. A shape doesn't mean a literal, detail-less shape, but in the sense that a building could serve as a rectangle. Roads often make nice lines in landscapes. When you're composing your photograph, you must consider the shapes and lines and where they draw your eye. If they're taking you out of the photograph or away from the primary subject, you'll probably have to consider a different composition. Let the roads lead where you want the eye to go.
