Composition of Square format

Compositional aspects of square format,

~Filling the frame-avoid having lots of empty space
Junxtipose-put oposites in picture ~circles work in a square
Single subjects center them – person eye in upper 3rd frame
Intigraite lines/geometry -long lines different shapes
Make things semetrical

~Properties of square
Stable shape -square format
Square-center things
Cut out all extra bits
Creativity

~A frame within a frame- a square within a square
Another element of interest -frame within a frame
Circles-juxtapose-softens up photo
Sideshots-one side of frame
Rule of thirds
Diagnals-corner to corner of photo
Rule of three-
Space restriction-not allow space in square format

when using square format it works alot better when using 3 things instead of two, its alot more affective aswell as having leading lines that lead up to the horizon lines which directs the vewiers eye all around the whole photo, the photo is very effective as there is no space restriction making the photo full of detail and attract the vewiers eye.
this photo has no space restriction and every bit of the photo is filled up with something to look at as in the background the light that shines creates a beautiful blurr on the trees to then you see on the phone the full bold details of the trees. the way all the features in the photo stand out and are presented catches the veiwers eye and attracts them into the center where the main focas is.
This photo is a frame within a frame it also has very little space making the photo more effective however to improve this photo I would make sure the angle I take it from will have better lighting as this is a good photo but it is quite dark and that is what I do not like.
This photo I like as it’s not to full it’s nice and even and not over the top and not filled to the brim with objects which makes it different from all the other photos, the horizon like is not dead centre and the building and trees are perfectly lined up which is effective to the vewiers eye.
This photo has leading lines but it’s not perfectly straight it sort of bends in a way which I really like showing the fact that it’s a hill, I like the fact the lines lead you all the way into the photo showing the qwurky and unique features of the buildings. The square format brings out the symmetry with-in this photo making it attract the attention of the veiwer.
