Zygology

The word "zygology" refers to "the science of fastening things together". Languages fasten things together all the time, and in this video, I go over many of the various ways they do so.

Subjects & Objects.

Every photo should have a main subject, like a flower, tree, rock, animal, or whatever you're interested in photographing. But in addition to the main subject, your photo will almost always contain other objects. 

A photo of a tiger, for example, might include rocks, trees, grass, and other animals in the distance. The tiger is the main subject, and all of the other elements in the scene are objects. How would you ensure that your photo of the tiger is well-composed?

Here are two tips to keep in mind:

Objects should never overpower the main subject. By overpower, I mean that the object should not get the most attention. Observe how objects are located relative to your main subject, the color of the objects, and anything else that could cause an object to get more attention than your subject.

Objects should enhance, not detract from, the subject by creating a certain mood, theme, or interesting perspective in your photo.
