Psychology and composition

Send us Fan Mail

I've been interested in psychology for a long time and I'm especially interested in how it relates to photography. In this case it's composition and why certain compositional elements are very effective.

In this short podcast I'll do my best to explain my understanding of seven elements:

Proximity

Similarity

Continuity

Closure

Figure-ground

Symmetry and Order

Common fate

While I don't expect these insights to revolutionise your photography, it might give you pause for thought about which elements are around you and how you can use them in your photographs.
