Shape
Shape is fundamental to picture building . It is generally the first means by which we identify objects , and with line it provides the main structure of most compositions .
Shape is a two - dimensional element ; however , lighting , and the tonal range which lighting brings out , can give it a three- dimensional quality , or form . Lighting can also destroy form or , by creating dark shad- ows , merge several shapes into one .
Shapes can be strengthened by position- ing them against a plain , tonally contrasting background , such as the sky . The most ex- treme example of this is silhouette , where shape is further emphasized by the elimi- nation of other features of the subject , such as form and texture .
If your subject contains very strong shapes , try to position yourself so that they combine well with each other . This will prevent shapes from clashing against each other and creates a rhythm or flow which encourages the viewer to explore the picture , as explained on the opposite page .
Shape and tone
One way of strengthening interest- ing shapes is to show them against a simple background . The waist high viewpoint in the picture , above , brings the two shapes of the tent and the figure into promi- nence , making an interesting and balanced composition .
Shape and rhythm
The sinewy flow of the water ter- races in the picture , left , creates a strong abstract structure . Shape was given to their strong lines by selecting a camera position that caught the white reflection of the overcast sky on the waters , intro- ducing tonal contrast .
Shape and reflection
Mirror images formed on still water can be used to double the mass of shapes to create entirely new out- lines . The shape and line of the mountains in the picture , right , were enhanced by deliberate un- derexposure . The exposure was measured from the bright areas on the lake , so that the dark land areas recorded without de- tail and merged with their reflec- tion to form one dramatic tapering shape . The lighter toned sky and a few rocks breaking the water's surface relieve the symmetry of the picture .
