Simplicity

Look for ways to give the center of interest in your pictures the most visual attentionSelect uncomplicated backgrounds See how we can improve this photo by looking for visual simplicity.We chose the cactus as the main subject. by moving in closer and using the plain sky as the backgroundWe're certainly close enough to our subject in both pictures, but the busy background on the left camouflages the seagull.Just change your point of view slightly and the seagull stands with visual prominence against the blue sky.Compose your photograph so that your reason for taking the picture is clearly seen.Arrange other parts of the picture area in such a way as to complement what you choose to be the center of interest.If picture not good enough, you are not close enough
Remember: we're talking about composition simplicity.How much of your subject should you include, and should it be framed horizontally as done here?Or perhaps you'd prefer to frame your subject in the vertical format, as indicated with these frame lines. The choice is yours.So, you can simplify your pictures and strengthen your center of interest by selecting uncluttered backgrounds, avoiding unrelated subjects, and moving in closeIf you want to make your center of interest even more dynamic, place it slightly off center in your frameGenerally, pictures with subjects directly in the center tend to be more static and less interesting than pictures with off-center subject placement.
