                           RULES OF PHOTOGRAPHY 

4)

     - Rule of Thirds, The object that you want other people to see is not in the center but is in the left or right, you can do this by imagining that the photo is divided into a tic tic toe box.

     - Balancing Elements, The object that you are taking a picture of must be balanced out with another object to make it look like as if it is, not the only one there, doesn't look like its going to fall of etc.

     - Leading Lines, The object of the picture is surrounded by lines that go in different directions, straight, diagonal, or curved.

     - Symmetry and Patterns, The object is put in a background were it could be divided in half but sell looks the same on both sides of the pictures

     - Viewpoint, The object of the picture is taken at a interesting point of view were the viewer could say," Wow thats a really cool picture how did they take that."

     - Background/Simplicity, The object has  a clear background and is obvious that the object is what draws your eye.

     - Create Depth, You put multiple objects in the photo, in the background, in the front ground, everywhere. 

     - Framing, The object is framed by an object or objects like trees, walls, rocks, water, are examples of the objects that frame the object. 

     - Cropping, The object is in the front of the picture and in the the background is filled with the same object but the background is blurred out.

     - Mergers, The object is merged with another object and that makes the photo look either silly or cool. 

     - Avoiding Mergers, The object is in a perfect picture that has nothing coming out of it that makes it look silly.

Self Portrait and Portraits Part II And Rules of Photography Part II

     1) The most common mistake made by a photographer is that they are not physically close enough to their subjects, meaning the subject is to small to have any impact. Viewers can sense when a subject is small because it was suppose to be and when its small because the photographer was too shy to get close. Don't be shy  they'll usually be happy to have their picture made.
     2) The setting in which you make pictures of people are important because they add to the viewers understanding of your subject.
      3) Be upfront about who you are and what you're doing . Don't just barge into a scene with your camera blazing. In fact, it is usually best to leave your camera in its bag when you first approach people, so as not to frighten.
