1.Leading Line
Leading lines are lines within an image that leads the eye to
another point in the image, or occasionally, out of the image. Anything with a
definite line can be a leading line. Fences, bridges, even a shoreline can lead
the eye. If can pair leading lines with a subject that is placed according to
the rule of third your image should be very strong. Leading Lines are used to
lure the eye deeper into a picture or to an important subject. Straight,
curved, parallel, or diagonal lines are all good at promoting interest.
Good examples could be roads, rivers, streams, bridges, branches, or fences but
there are endless things that could be used.
Leads the eye from one part of the picture to another:from the
foreground to the background, the secondary subject to the main subject
Vertical :
dignity, height, grandeur and strength
Horizontal :
repose, calm, tranquility and peacefulness
Diagonal :
force, energy and motion
Curved : great beauty
and charm
Example
- Shadow
Light and shadow create lines and shapes and negative space and all
of the other principles apply to the shapes that they create. Light and shadow are compositional elements
and all of the principles apply to them.
Example
- Silhouette
Silhouette is defined as an outline that appears dark against a
light background. More specifically, it is where your subject is seen as
a black shape without detail against a brighter background. This is an
artistic outcome that many photographers like to perfect. This effect can
be achieved with any kind of bright light source, but of course the most
commonly used is the sun around sunrise or sunset. The backlighting from
the sun shadows everything towards you and produces this effect.
Example
- Rule of Third
Rule of thirds is one of the most well-known rule of image
composition. Rule of thirds is very easy to learn and adapt in practice. Often
people place the main subject of the photograph into the middle of the frame.
This only seldom yields to the best possible composition except if there is one
clear subjects which is photographed very close. Of course there are exceptions
to this.Rule of thirds suggests to place the subject off the center. Rule of
thirds can also be adapted by forgetting the intersections and by thinking
about the location of the lines. Horizontal lines are often good places for the
horizon. This often yields to better results than placing the horizon into the
middle of the frame.

5.Repetitive Form
Repeated objects whether they’re lines or other objects can create
patterns and add to the feel of our image. Repeated objects can form a line as
well and lead the viewer into an image.
