not always.

sometimes nothing is better than symmetry. Take a hallway shot, for example, with all the ribs of the hallway kinda making a box-in-box effect.

its all about shape and form recongnition, really. Just find an interesting background, try and replicated the pictures you like best, and go from there.

take test shots of little things around the home.

some suggestions (and oldskool pics h: thank god I don't rock those rims anymore):

high angles are very different.


wharebone was half right. asymmetry has its pluses


night time can be a bitch, but alot of times, it helps to have a real nice bg subject. I wish my shutter would stay open longer. One of these days, I'm gonna get some axuilary lighting



or if you can pull it off, a foreground subject works as well :bandito:

I love that pic :chuckles:

hope those kinda help....
