SYMMETRY

The Symmetry composition uses a central axis — vertical, horizontal, or both — to create a mirror-like balance in the image. This technique is ideal for architectural photography, reflections in water, and formal compositions that evoke a sense of order and harmony. Place your subject centered along the axis of symmetry and use the guiding lines to ensure balanced elements on both sides of the frame. Symmetry can create powerful, calming images that draw the viewer into the center of the scene.
