I'M sure you have ail seen snap* 1 shots which are technically excellent -- clear cut, well-lighted pictures --yet they seemed frightfully dull. They didn't say a thing. They were, in effect, beautiful but dumb. A really good picture tells a Ltory. And, in order to tell any story, a few simple facts have to be put down in an Orderly fashion. Otherwise, our eyes and minds cannot And the story and the picture has no meaning. In writing a story, a writer puts words together to form sentences to express a thought, or an idea, or to: describe something. When an artist paints a picture, he arranges his pictorial materials, his figures and objects, so that they mean something--so that they say what he intends them to say. Now there is no point in pretending we are artistic, but we should be aware of the fact that when we make pictures we are working with the same things he does. Our pictures are dependent on the same factors that make sense or nonsense of an artist's work. The handling of these factors comes under the heading 0f composition. There is nothing mysterious about composition. It is simply the arrangement Of - people and things within the borders of a picture. Composition has its rules and principles--but there are only two very basic factory with which amateur snapshooters need be concerned. First of all, any composition that makes good sense and tells its story in a straightforward manner is probably a good composition. Secondly, the secret of this "good sense" is very often stmpticijy. A simple picture tells its story faster and better than a cluttered - one. So, in your pictures try for ft single or dominating main point of interest--be content to let<tac|i picture tell just one story. And in me at any time.
