I love this video, this is my take on it from somebody who has watched so many videos on composition. The first thing we do is get excited, charge our cameras go outside and start clicking and trying to remember what we learnt from this video. I think the best way to do it is like an exam, you go out and you practice 2 compositions for a week and master them. not at home, take a walk to the city and come back with pics. Then build up your skill set.
Im just getting into photography late in life but what I found really interesting was the power of 3. I owned a landscaping business that we sold a few years ago but one of the things we used to do in landscape beds was to always put a set of 3 plants together with different heights and colors to add some depth and texture. Even in decorating our home we always use that strategy. This was an amazing video, I think Im going to go out and just find a scenario with all of these in them.
