This image shows the classic use of foreground object to create a feeling of
depth. This pier also helps to draw the viewer's attention towards the vast
sea
Keeping the pier at an angle in the photograph helps create a sense of dynamism. It also brings out the peculiar pattern in the design of the pier. While shooting a landscape, keep the rule of third in mind. Actually, it's a convention, not a rule. It says that either the land or the sky should occupy 1/3rd of the space in the photograph and the other should occupy 2/3rd. But again, this rule is breakable, as evident in the next picture. |

The adjoining picture is clearly divided in 2 halves. This creates a very
symmetrical effect, which wouldn't be possible with a 1/3rd-2/3rd division.
So the rule of 1/3rd is always subject to the matter you want to put in your photograph. |

A few clouds in the clear sky always provide a nice dynamic touch for the
photograph. This photograph depicts exactly that.
Combined with the dramatic sky is the different angle with which this picture is shot, which becomes the main feature of this photograph. |

Silhouttes against sunsets are ideal subjects for landscapes. The vivid colors of sunset always make a good picture. Silhouttes are quite useful for giving a character to the plain sunset photos.
