Composition is a subject that I really haven't thought much of until reading this. Before, when I took pictures I would just kind of place the different objects where ever and hope it looked okay. Now the writer talked a lot about "The rule of thirds" in this and how not to always stick with it. I have heard of the rule before, but haven't really thought about it.
I really like step 4 in this. I never really knew that simple lines could do so much. But after looking at the example picture it really made sense how lines can add so much dimension. Also I thought step 3 was helpful too. Step three talked about simplifying as much as possible and that is something I struggle with. When I take pictures I want to try and get everything in the frame, but this helped me realize that its better to have a smaller amount of things in the frame and have the picture look better. Then to try and have everything in focus and have the image more shallow.
