Well, I have always had a very ambivalent look towards “ learning” composition by means of any book but if there is one subject where you can easily use a classic book ( and a cheap secondhand book easily found on line) this is certainly one.

 

There are many such books!

 

I have taught photography for quite some time and whenever someone asked for a book to illustrate what I was preaching I always recommended the book which saw me through the first paces in Photography.

 

Andreas Feininger’s “ principles of composition in Photography” a 1972 book ( composition hasn’t changed anyway!).

 

 

 

Feininger was a great photographer and photography divulger from the ’30 onwards and wrote many books, some of which are still relevant to this day.

You may know him from this very famous image!
