A recent article by Etienne Bossot on PetaPixel.com – "How to Use Composition Templates to Improve Your Photography" – is a worthwhile read because it talks about utilizing different types of framing techniques to help improve the look, feel and sophistication of your images. For example, when using a composition template while shooting, a photographer can more easily capture a great image when things are happening quickly around them. The article provides examples of some commonly used templates, such as the Rule of Thirds, and discusses the impact they have on your photos. Interestingly, Bossot mentions the pitfalls of consistently using templates over and over again and the effect it can have on a photographer’s vison and portfolio. To that end, Bossot (who can be followed on Instagram at @picsofasia and on Twitter at @Hoianphototour) offers some sensible advice on how to further improve your creativity through the use of different gear and a better understanding of the uses of light. I hope you find this article as useful as I did.
