Composition Project: Bad Photos

5 photos with bad composition:

Photo 1:

Despite having a symmetrical balance I think it makes this photo look a bit too "in jail". Also not much is going on in the foreground and background making it a rather flat image.

Photo 2:

This photo has bad composition because it doesn't include any of the principles of organization. You can maybe argue that it has some sort of proportion to the two columns but to me it is very minimal and doesn't make for a good image.

Photo 3:

Here we have bad composition due to also lacking any of the principles of organization. Their is hardly one visual element in this photo.

Photo 4:

This photo has a poor composition because it has too much variety in the frame and doesn't have any focus on a specific element.  To me it looks a bit cluttered making it unappealing. 

Photo 5:

Here we have bad composition due to the awkward center placement of the two subjects. Also it should be framed a bit higher to make more headroom for the statue on the left.
