The Circle
Circular composition is a form in which circular patterns are used in the piece to herd the viewers sigh to a particular point or to keep it in a certain area. An example of this would be a tunnel as seen bellow.
Fig[1]
The circular nature of the tunnel guides and confines the viewer's attention towards the exit.
The Triangle
The triangle is simply composition technique that uses a triangular pattern, usually placed in the center. Triangle composition often gives an impression of height and strength. An obvious example of this type of composition would be a mountain.
Fig [2]
You can see the mountain triangular composition projects a very imposing form on this image without taking up the entirety of the image's space. Church towers and pyramids also give the off the same impression using this principle.
Fig[3]
So these to techniques could be useful depending on what I'm trying to go for. It might also be possible to combine these to composition techniques, perhaps creating an imposing tunnel or something along those lines could be interesting.
