Balance in Photography

BALANCE: As you walk, a sense of balance keeps you from falling over. Balance is a principle of design and is the way in which the elements in visual arts are arranged to create a feeling of equilibrium in a work of art. The three types of balance are symmetry, asymmetry, and radial. Today we are going to look at symmetrical balance.

Balance & symmetry Symmetry (Formal Balance) is mirror image balance. In symmetrical balance, you could draw a line down the center of your design, and you'd find the exact same elements on either side of that line.

Balance & SYmmetry Sometimes images may not be completely identical in Symmetry, but they are similar in terms of numbers of objects, colors and other elements.

Balance & Symmetry Other times they are completely identical designs using symmetrical balance tend to have a formal, traditional look to them.

Balance & Symmetry Symmetrical balance is easiest to see in perfectly centered compositions or those with mirror images. When a design can be centered or evenly divided both vertically and horizontally it has the most complete symmetry possible.
