Entre las reglas de composición más conocidas encontramos la proporción áurea (golden ratio) y su prima hermana, la regla de los tercios. Ya sabéis, la idea de que cuando un elemento está situado en un punto descentrado con respecto al eje vertical del encuadre su impacto visual es mayor. Esta proporción áurea ha sido considerada como una regla universal por matemáticos, biólogos, artistas o arquitectos. Su presencia en la arquitectura clásica o en fenómenos naturales ha sido la prueba que siempre sirvió para avalar esta universalidad y negar cualquier tipo de dependencia de factores sociales o culturales. Es decir, nuestra tendencia a otorgar un mayor valor estético y preferir imágenes compuestas de acuerdo con esta proporción áurea, obedecería a un impulso innato grabado en nuestros genes e independiente de nuestra formación artística o de nuestras experiencias visuales. La experimentación en psicología también apuntó en esa misma dirección, al menos la que se había llevado a cabo hasta ahora.
hpc's insight:
Among the rules of composition best known are the golden ratio (golden ratio) and its cousin, the rule of thirds. You know, the idea that when an item is located on a point offset from the vertical axis of the frame is greater visual impact.This golden ratio has been regarded as a universal rule by mathematicians, biologists, artists or architects. Their presence in classical architecture or natural phenomena has always served as proof to support this universality and deny any kind of dependence on social or cultural factors. That is, we tend to give greater aesthetic value and prefer composite images according to the golden ratio, obey an innate impulse engraved in our genes, independent of our artistic training or our visual experiences. Experimentation in Psychology also pointed in the same direction, at least he had done so far.

Street photography is often distinguished by its use of the single image to make a single point but photobooks contain many images that must work together to create a coherent whole.

This post was done in collaboration with the Sub-Reddit R/Analog with permission from the mods. “It was around the time of 2010 – 2012 that I had lived in the Bay Area California for school. I was attending the Academy of Art University for photography and had to make my trips from Daly City to San Francisco for class almost everyday,” said photographer Arthur Bueno about his series MOMENTS IN THE SAME PLACE. “It usually started early mornings and ended late nights. And as I started to grab onto this routine there were a couple of things that I started seeing that were unusual. Before I knew it I started gripping my camera in the morning, during lunch, and at night.”

These days it feels as if everyone is shooting with digital cameras. The reasons are many, but the basic and most obvious one is that like everything else surrounding us, photography too has been digitised. Digital photography produces great results, just as good as film, and some even claim it has now surpassed film. More and more amazing high quality Full Frame and APS-C sensors are being squeezed into small modern cameras with tremendous abilities. But still, there are Street Hunters out there that prefer film over digital. The Romantics of photography, the analogue masters of light. Why though? Why would someone living in our time choose to still use film over digital in Street Photography? What could film offer that digital can’t do even better? I have thought about this many times, especially during my transition from digital to film 2 years ago and I’m come up with 13 reasons why I think you should shoot film in Street Photography.

People familiar with my photos and my black and white photography processing method of iSGM2.0 will know that this method of processing black and white photographs is very effective and accurate and gives you complete control over your architectural, landscape or seascape photographs. The questions I get asked on a frequent basis is, if they also work on black and white still life photography, portrait photography or even for color photography. Yes of course they work for those types of photographs as well. It will work on any subject matter since my method is based on the principles of isolating and controlling light and shapes and every photograph, whether this is an architectural black and white photograph, a black and white portrait photograph or any kind of black and white or color photograph, always consists of light and shapes. They are the foundations of every photograph in the post processing phase. Please refer to this article on Black and White Photography Post Processing Techniques In The Digital Age in which I explain in detail how post processing in the digital age can be done effectively and efficiently with a superior degree of control by identifying and isolating light and shapes. And control is what is needed for craftsmanship in art.
