Photography Composition Field Guide | 12+ Advanced Photo Challenges
 
Take photography composition beyond the usual list of rules with this Photography Composition Field Guide.

3 pages of Teacher Notes & Answers with teaching suggestions, discussion ideas, and guidance for using the field guide
12+ advanced photography challenges designed to get students out shooting and thinking like photographers including assignments such as Chase the Light, See Color Differently, Build the Frame, and Make It Feel Something
