Principles of Composition

The building blocks for creating meaningful photographs have remained unchanged since light was first "imprisoned" by Louis Daguerre more than a century and a half ago. Form and contrast must unify to produce a meaningful and compelling composition. In this workshop, Professor Nathan will discuss and demonstrate the principles of photographic composition.
