1  Rule of thirds is when the subject is not straight in dead center, but is slightly to either the left or right side.


2  Balancing elements is a lot like rule of thirds, except sometimes if the subject is off center then the background can feel empty. Adding an object of lesser importance can help to fill the void.


3 Leading lines are when there are lines that help direct the viewer's attention to the subject and help enhance the photo in general.


4 Symmetry and patterns help to decorate the picture. Drawing a line in the middle of the picture and having each side exactly the same is helpful in making the picture prettier. Patterns are repetition of an object or design, it being on one thing or person also helps.


5 A viewpoint is where and which angle a photographer shoots from. Usually angles are one of the most common ways to take pictures. Though some prefer to shoot directly in front of their subject(s)


6 In order to bring out the subject of the shot, the background shouldn't be busy. Instead, it should be simple, and not attract too much attention to itself.


7 Depth layers the whole picture. Multiple layers really make the shot more pretty.


8 Framing the shot is okay, when it's on purpose. A natural frame is even better, it helps to draw more attention to the subject of the picture.


9 Cropping is when the photographer takes out any unnecessary details to keep the viewer's attention on the main subject of the photo.


10 Mergers are mostly an unwanted hazard in the photography world. Sometimes if a picture is taken at the wrong angle, a background object can merge with the object, giving it an unnatural appearance.


Aperture: A hole within the camera's lens, with which light travels into the camera's body. There is large and small apertures. The larger the aperture, the more light gets in. The smaller the aperture, the less light gets in.


Shutter Speed: The length of time in which of a camera's shutter is open to expose light. At faster speeds, the movement of a living subject starts to get blurry. Slower speed makes movement appear clearer.


ISO: The level of sensitivity your camera has toward light. The less it has, the less sensitive it is to light. And Vice versa

Exposure: The amount of light per area, also relating to ISO


Depth of Field: The distance between the nearest and farthest objects appearing sharp in pictures.


Focal length: How strongly the camera converges or diverges light.

Early Magazine Cover: Near the end of the 19th century, when magazines were starting out, there wasn't much on them. There usually was a non related picture in the middle under the table.

Poster: Soon, magazines began to put pictures relating to the subject of the article on the cover.

Married to Type: There soon began to appear on the covers bold, title lines on their magazines. The subject also sometimes overlapped the title.

Forest of Words: Eventually, there began to appear on the covers more words than one could count. It sometimes interfered with the subject, but there was enough space that a person could see what the article was about.
