THIS WEEK MAGAZINE

Another sound rule is always to
have a single point of interest. This
sounds abstract until you look at the
most common violation of this rule:
the typical Sunday snapshot of three
or four people lined up in a row
gaping at the camera. What's wrong
with it? 1t is four pictures of indi-
viduals on one piece of paper - it is
not one picture of four Individuals, as it
should be.
For contrast, look at the accom-
panying illustration: swell shot Of
three children. What catches your
eye? The newspaper? Then where does
it go? Right around the circle of the
three heads and back to the paper. 1t
will 60 round and round and round as
often as you like, but it won't be
drawn away from the main idea of the

right into the main body of the picture.
Or shall we now say composition"
There are dozens of other rules that
can be studied benefcially by any
body who cares to go into them: the
rule of the S curve, the arch, the
pyramid, and so on and so forth, but
we shan't 60 into them here. If you
are interested, you can get plenty of
books on composition at your public
library; and make no mistake about it,
they will improve your photography.
Suffice it to say here, however, that
one picture often looks more pleasing
than another picture of the same
scene because it has better compost
ton. And if you insist upon rough
and-ready definition of composition, l
say that it is the art of taking one
picture at time!

picture or be distracted by inconse-
quential details, because this is one
picture of three individuals.
Notice, too, how this snapshooter
has placed his subjects to get the best
out of them. Beginners seem to have
a passion for showing all details of
their subjects, hence everybody must
be standing or sitting in a row. No
neophyte would have the courage to
cut off that upper right-hand boy
from the waist down - but who cares
what kind of pants he's wearing?
Neither can we see the knees of the
boy in the center, but what of it? To
be sure, the little girls knees are
pleasing enough, but they aren't put
there for that reason. They are ar

artist nor a debater and we're not
going to get into technicalities that l
wouldn't understand myself. Yet there
are a few simple fundamentals that
will help even the most casual snap
shooters to get better pictures.
For one thing, never cut picture
evenly in half, either vertically or
horizontally. That is, if you are shoot
ing landscape, don't have the horizon
line run right through the middle of
the picture: get it above center or
below center and avoid the deadly
monotony of perfect balance. Perhaps
in this kind of shot you have a
gorgeous sky full of clouds. Well, let
the horizon come below center: make
it two-thirds sky and one-third earth.
On the other hand, the greater interest
may be in the trees, the buildings or
the vista All right, then reverse the
ratio and make it tWo-thirds earth. In
either event you are recording one
good picture at time instead of two
mediocre ones.
Or maybe you want to snap a
beautiful elm tree outlined against the
sky. Put it smack in the center of your
finder and you'll likely get beautiful
picture of the elm - but it will be an
uninteresting shot Try again, but
shift the tree to the left or right of the
finders center: throw it a trlfle off
exact balance and the tree becomes
real and intriguing.

SOMETHING TO
CHEW ON

RADISHES we're first used. not as an
article of food, but as missiles by
political critics. Roman citizens de-
lighted in hurting them in the Forum,
the public debating place in Rome, at
speakers whom they disllked.
"A PEACH tree able to resist extreme
cold was recently patented by an Ono
hortlculturist - the first patent of its
kind ever to be granted The tree was
developed to meet all the changing
climatic conditions on this continent.
MARX ANTONY once gave a dinner
for Cleopatra, and she praised 1t so
highly that he ordered an entire city
be given to the cook.
GREEK philosophers thought eggs
represented the universe. The shell
represented earth and air: the white of
the egg, water; and the yolk, fire.
OUNGLE tribes which live mainly on
vegetables enjoy salt in the same way
that Americans enjoy sugar. Children
suck crystals of salt as our children
suck candy. Older persons carry bits
of salt and offer it to each other, as an
American might offer chew OF
tobacco
In THE Samoan Islands the wedding
ceremony consists merely of eating
cake together.
Disks of brittle bread, of about the
size and thinness of phonograph
records, but with a larger hole in the
center, are baked in Sweden. Dozens
, of these "loaves" are slid onto pole,
which is then hung across the pantry.

"Composition" sounds
hard, but it's easy; and
fine snapshots need it

fine snapshots need ii
RAvE you ever noticed, when
looking through your old
4 . prints. that some snapshots are
thoroughly uninterestlng, whereas
Others are no better technically and
vet seem to have certain something
that might be called charm, or eye
appeal?
You can see the difference even more
graphically by having a number OF
snapshooters go out and photograph
the same subject or scene. Each one
may bring back a perfect exposure and
a swell print, yet one is pretty sure to
stand out above the others.
Eight times out of ten the difference
will be in a little matter that the
artists call composition" that is,
melodious arrangement of lines that
appeal to the eye, just as good piece
of music is arranged to please the ear.
Artists have debated the fine points
of composition for generations - but
don't get alarmed. I'm neither an
