Symmetry and Patterns

Leading Lines
• Put the object of your photo off center and have a line leading to it so that the human eye will follow that line up and focus on your main focus point.

Balancing Elements
• Place your main focus of the picture off center but have an empty or "less cluttered" background.

Cropping
• Putting your attention on one thing so that it is not bothered by the clutter in the back ground.

Framing
