Odd and Symmetry Rules in Photos

Has anyone heard of the odd rule and the symmetry rule? Let's discuss it in more detail

1. Odd rule

The odd rule is an image composition with an odd number of objects in the foreground, for example 3 and 5.

You can use this composition because usually the human eye tends to look towards the center of a group. Usually odd compositions have one center which makes the eyes of the person looking at the photo immediately look at and focus on that point.

You can create various compositions of objects so that they look more attractive, for example side by side or in a triangle formation.

2. Symmetry rules

The rule of symmetry is that one side of the image is the same as the other side. You can place the object in the center so that it becomes the main focal point of a photo and people who see it are immediately drawn to it. Symmetry can create an interesting composition because it can add harmony and balance to a photo.

There are 2 ways to use this composition in your photos, first, symmetry lines from top to bottom and making the left and right sides the same size as architecture, doors, roads and trees. Second, you can find horizontal lines such as the reflection of a building or structure in water.
