Project: Composition

For this your assignment, you are to shoot 24 - 36 shots. For every one of these shots, you should have the rules of composition on the forefront of your mind. Be able to discuss which elements of composition come into play with in your images.

For this assignment, there will be absolutely no cropping. We're going to do what they call "cropping in camera," which means that everything you see in your viewfinder (or LCD screen) will make up the final picture.
