David Prakel: Composition key notes

Another key reading that I did to prepare myself for this project was about Composition by David Prakel. The reading explains what composition is; the process of identifying and arranging the elements to produce a coherent image (everything in an image forms its composition). Prakel explains how we are enabled to better understand the principles of composition when the consistent parts of an image are formally broken down into line, shape, form, texture, pattern and colour. This reading has helped me to understand that I must change the composition for the different photographs that I take by changing the Apature, Shutter Speed and ISO settings on the camera.
