I have to say that I plan to watch this video again and again. I'm always trying to improve my awareness in pursuit of capturing interesting composition. This video not only tells you what to look for, but explains the reasons behind the science of desirable/undesirable qualities of composition.
-Update. After watching this video, I have had an opportunity to go out and apply what I have learned. I feel that I have a greater ability to define my subject both in camera and in post production. I now have greater confidence in my photography. In addition when I see something that I have shot that is not quite right, I can now identify my mistakes with less effort and understand what adjustments that I need to perform. I watch a lot of video tutorials for photography, drawing and painting, this video has to be at the top of my list of recommendations. I am compelled to express my deep gratitude to Christian Tudor for producing this video and sharing his precious knowledge on RUclips.
thank you Hugh
cheers!
Absolutely marvellous, comprehensive and a masterpiece video on the subject. Thank you so very much Christian. Deep gratitude and appreciation for your time, great work and expertise

thank you for your feedback. Not sure I understand how you want me to elaborate more than I have already done in the video. the main value of a photograph is to tell a story. Composition has the tools to support this. Every composition has a meaning as I have already mentioned and this is how you can choose to tell the story.
How I started as a photographer? I have done courses in regards to visual arts earlier in life and combined my knowledge and experience in this video
Finally not only a video about the rule of 3rds, but a lot more and deeper!
great explanation! i am a medial doctor (gastroenterologist) in Argentina and photography is my most precious hobby. I have found this video very helpful and with a lot of background which i love. Thanks for the explanation. Cheers from South America!
I watch this a lot. It is a jewel of clarity. You laid out some clear principles, nothing more nothing less, and kept opinion and hearsay out of it. Thank you so much.
This video is the best of the bests for composition.period.
I’ve lost count of the number of years I’ve known these rules, but I’ve never known why they work. A brilliant video, the best I’ve seen for a long time.
This guy is a real "PRO" He understands HUMANS. Which is very complex. He explains rules and law that we humans define "Beauty" using the human face/ Taking thinks that are familiar he helps you apply to your photography.
My goodness. This is the the the best article I seen on composition.
We know most of the things earlier like Golden ratio, Fibonacci and also research to define what is beautiful. But the way you put all these to define beauty and made a relations to define we already know is simply the best.
Your article is not just useful for photography but also for architecture.
You put all the things in detail and covered all the things required.
Hats off.
Wow so much information in such a short time! Slowing down every shot I take, examining the composition using this information and looking forward to more powerful images rather then hoping one of the many comes out good
Simply one of the best tutorials I've watched so far on composition. Brief yet comprehensive, made me fall in love with photography even more!
Twenty-one minutes filled with wonderful information. Thank you.
+Joel Finkel thank you
One of the best teacher's in the game. Very easy to understand.!!!
Best video about composition on RUclips I've seen. This is more like a art class than the usual stuff. Very well done!
One of the BEST tutorials I have ever seen. And I have seen hundreds! Thank you so much for your video!
Thank you.....
Wonderful tutorial. I've been watching a few of your videos tonight, and have found them very clear and invaluable. I've had a finepix S8650 bridge, for a few weeks and until now, have just been on auto mode and snapping randomly. Watching this I understand why some of my better images draw attention. This really is the best tutorial on composition I've seen (and I've spent the last 4 weeks scrolling endless webpages) Will be heading out tomorrow morning with my son to put into practice what I've learned tonight. Thank you, have subscribed! xxxx
This is the BEST video on composition I've ever come across!
Good composition is better than a good camera.
Excellent video - I love watching this before going out to take pictures. Videos like this help remind us of the rules and how to compose a good image. Thinking of these rules - even if it means putting the camera down for a little while prior to actually taking the picture - can mean the difference between getting or not getting the shot. The over abundance of chaotic photos (facebook, flickr, etc.) makes knowing these rules, before posting one's work, even more important.
I've been shooting for almost a year now with my D7000. Prior to even buying a DSLR I made sure I learned these rules and would suggest this video to anyone interested in photography. Sadly, bird photography (which I love) sometimes frustrates me because birds are difficult to frame/compose, They move out of an area quickly and/or land in areas that are visually unappealing. Even with post processing sometimes I just cannot compose a bird well based on where it landed. Luckily my cat isn't as finicky as birds!
P/S: This video appeals to me because I am a sociologist who works in the field of research/statistics. I love these meta-thinking discussions on how we unconsciously process information into feelings.Great information!

thank you for your feedback
As for me being a beginner in understanding the basics of Composition, you truly made it a more than comfortable learning process. Thank you
I have seen something like over 30 videos on composition but this by far is the best. He actually explains the science behind the art. I would love to view this video before I pick up my camera to shoot something ... thanks and keep up the good work!!!
This deserves so much more views. Finally something thats clearly understandable.
thank you!
Lots to digest. I'll be referencing this video and digesting each element for some time. It's like a condensed book. Thank you very much for giving back to those of us only just beginning in photography!
Thank YOU so much for this videos. I am a videographer for many years, but just recently I adopted the decision to do weddings. Buy watching your videos I know right there that I have a good eye for composition and always looking for the way that my shoots will tell a story. I will continue watching more of your video and will let you know when I came across with some questions. Thank you

Understanding from within., really is a golden rule of good photography. Thank you very much. I just started this hobby only recently and I've learned so much from it.

I like to watch composition videos and I can tell you that this one is one of the most well made I've seen. It is so simple and so complete that I enjoy a lot. Thanks a lot for sharing it. Juan. Chile.
Bravo. The cat is out of the bag. Thank you for putting together such an informative thought provoking tutorial. I cannot wait to watch it again to gain more insight.
I've learned that what we like in beauty is roundness when we look at people and things. Simatry and order.
greatest teacher ever I had.. on youtube,,,
I am about to start a photography class. you are such a great teacher! aside from being a great artist. thank you!
Greetings from Maldives Christian, Thank you very much, I found your tutorials very easy to understand, and much worthy than thousand of documents and tutorials I've gone through, Just to understand the basic photography because of lack of interest in Bird and wildlife photography, However my Nikon D5000 is broken as I mistakenly drop it to sea, I have ordered a new one through ebay. So hopefully I shall get it soon, as soon as I start following your exercises, I will be sending you pictures. Hopefully I wish I can sponsor a short course or workshop and invite you to Maldives to teach. Your Just so kind to share your knowledge, only few people have that gut. Again Thank you so much and you can't even imagine how much your tutorial has helped.
+Hassan Faris thanks for the message. I loved the Maldives...
it's very rare to find a humble artist that lets science( Evolutionary Psychology) explain why things are the way they are and improves their based on that truth. I really admire your intellectual honesty and i enjoy you videos. They are clear and easy to understand for anyone. Thank you.
no worries. your kind of feedback makes my day.
best wishes!
Dear Christian(i think thats your name:)Thank you for excellent explanation.I think in this video you share the most important things a photographer or hobbyist must know/learn before jumping into different camera reviews or technical stuff of photography.to know how to compose is far more importand than the camera,its sad that this kind of videos are often underestimated and get far less views than a random, useless camera versus or heads up
The video is a gem in photography.
thank you
Thank you for this mini-seminar, excellent presentation and noteworthy information.
This video is awesome. I watched it twice. You gave me so much to think about. I need to think about what I want to say with my pictures. So I walked around today and I put a lot more thought into my pictures. I only took 5 pictures but I felt good about all of them. To me, that's better than coming home with 50 pictures and deleting 45 of them.
Very well explained, one of the best composition tutorials that I have seen.
I am currently studying photography & photo imaging! I want to thank you for opening my eyes to a subject that has been slightly touch compared to your video!
Thanks God I found this video. I just subscribed.
I have seen tens may be hundreds of photography tutorials, however your footage here without any doubt is the best of them all, you tackled the "beauty" from a complete different point of view. Thank you for this film and keep up the excelent work ...regards from Egypt
