For my shoot a roll assignment I took a friend to an old railroad track and took pictures of her as she was walking on the rails. There are three main rules of composition that I used to take this photo. First, I used rule of thirds by placing my friend off to the side so she wasn't directly in the center of the photo. Then I cropped the picture a certain way that eliminated the useless parts of the railroad track to add emphasis on my friend. When I decided to take the picture from a certain angle it created interesting leading lines to my focal point. Also, the principle of design that I used was contrast by having my friend wear dark clothing to make her stand out from the bright snow in the background.
