The next shape under consideration is the triangle. Two sets of triangular compositions were required, one using real triangles and the other making 'implied' triangles.
Real
1. Firstly, a subject that is itself a triangle. I chose the roof of the local church on a sunny morning, using my Tamron 18 - 270 lens @18mm, ISO 400, f/14 and shutter speed of 1/50s.
2. Secondly, a triangle made by perspective, converging towards the top of the frame. For this, I shot the corner of a three-storey building in Cádiz from ground level, thus giving the triangular shape converging towards the top of the frame.
Again using the Tamron 18 - 270 lens @ 18mm, ISO 400, f/6.3 and shutter speed of 1/320s.
3. Thirdly, an inverted triangle, also by perspective, converging towards the bottom of the frame. +++++++++
Implied
1. A still-life arrangement of 5-6 objects to produce a triangle with the apex at the top.
This traditional Moroccan tagine helps provide a strong triangular composition. ISO 100 (with tripod), f/4, shutter speed 0.60 secs using 18 - 55mm lens @21mm.
2. A still-life arrangement as above, but so that the triangle is inverted, with the apex at the bottom.
This simple arrangement of pens and pencils in a glass was taken at ISO 100, f/4, shutter speed of 30 secs using the 18 - 55mm lens @ 35mm.
3. An arrangement of 3 people in a group picture in such a way that either their faces or the lines of their bodies makes a triangle.
ISO 200, shutter speed 1/5s, f/7.1 using Tamron 18 - 270mm lens @ 55mm. Tripod and no flash.
