Uncover the transformative power of composition and elevate your photography!If you bought a book from the 1940s on photography composition, what would you imagine its chapters might be? Rule of Thirds? Leading Lines? Using Patterns? Exactly. Heck, the phrase leading lines in photography composition was first used back in the late 1700s, but after all this time, were still teaching these rules of composition. Why? Its probably because they actually work pretty well, but they only scratch the surface of composition. After all, there has got to be more to great composition than just those rules or everybody would already be a composition master, right?Thats what sets Crush the Compositionapart. Written by photographer and best-selling author Scott Kelby, its the first book of its kind to take you beyond the time-honored rules of composition covered in every book on composition since the beginning of photography and share the concepts that nobody has been talking aboutuntil now. These are some of the best-kept secrets in photography, and Scott unveils them all here in this groundbreaking new book whose layout and design put one leg in the classroom and one leg on the coffee table. Youre holding a book that has the power to transform the way you see, frame, and create images from this day forward because it will give you a clear plan of exactly what to do when you pick up your camera and start to frame up your shot.Youll learn exactly how to work the scene when it comes to photographing landscapes, travel, and even portraits, along with what to do first, what to do next, and how to move step by step through the process. Plus, youll learn: What to do when the classic rules dont apply (for example, what you can do if there are no leading lines or using the rule of thirds doesnt work). How to vary your settings and how it can change your composition. Plus, youll learn not only when to do it but, most importantly, why youd want to in the first place. How to add depth to your images, so they go from looking flat to having that deep, epic feeling that draws the viewer into your image. How to compose for great-looking portraits and why certain composition decisions can make your subject look their very best. How to use sharpness and depth of field to your advantage and how they play into your entire composition (its more powerful than youd think).Youll also find a chapter on composition tips and tricks, and theres even a short chapter that covers those classic rules of composition. But, instead of dedicating an entire chapter to each rule, each one is just one pagetheyre short, sweet, and to the point, so you get them out of the way fast. Theyre still valid, but the way Scott describes them, in his trademark casual style, all youll need is that one page and youll totally get them. That way, you can focus on the stuff that goes way beyond just those classic rules.Its all here in the only book of its kind, so get ready to rethink everything and come away with the type of images youve always dreamed of creating.Table of Contents Chapter 1: Seeing Differently Chapter 2: Work the Scene Chapter 3: Change Your Perspective Chapter 4: Work the Sharpness Chapter 5: Work the Settings Chapter 6: Add Depth to Your Composition Chapter 7: The Power of Simplicity Chapter 8: Composition for Portraits Chapter 9: How to Critique Your Own Work Chapter 10: Composition Tips Chapter 11: The Classic Rules of Composition Chapter 12: The Numbers Behind the Pixels
