ISBN: 9781781450512 AVAILABLE APRIL 2014


Professional photographer David Taylor’s concise, jargon-free text guides the reader through the basics of composition, why it matters and how to attune the mind to the art of looking. The main composition concepts – from the Rule of Thirds, the Golden Section, the Rule of Odds, visual weight and contrast, to actual and implied lines in an image, symmetry, viewpoint and abstraction – are each analysed and demonstrated with the aid of the author's own beautiful images.
