form

Forms, as well as shapes, are elements that take up a specific space in the frame in a particular way and both of them can create points in a photograph. In photography, form is the three-dimensional representation of a shape. Despite the fact that images are two-dimensional, forms can still give the feeling of three-dimensionality by revealing a sense of space. An element’s form is defined by how much space it takes up inside the space of the frame. Forms work together with lines and shapes to convey meaning in a composition. Because a form includes more detail than the other two compositional elements, it conveys a message in a more literal sense.
