Photography Composition: Rhythm & Pattern

Pattern is another great element to incorporate into your photography. You created pattern with repeated shapes. These repeated photographic elements will create a type of unity and structure to your photography. By finding a pattern in lines, shapes or colors you can easily add rhythm to your photographs that the human eye will have an easy time following.

Pattern is usually used in photography as a secondary element. This is because photographs which use pattern as their main element tend to be monotonous.
