Back to Basics The Rules of Image Composition

February 7th, 2024

On visual storytelling: the rules of image composition

Deadlines: you can’t live with them, you can’t live without them. …Or so the saying goes. The same is true when it comes to rules. And yet, deadlines and rules are intrinsic parts of our professional and personal lives.

The image has been featured in several photography shows in the area, including the (then) annual Fresh Fruit art festivals at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art.
