snapshot is a quick shot, often spontaneous, taken to record a moment in time.
photograph is an image taken with care and thought.
The rules of composition:
Rules of thirds- imaginary lines dawn dividing the frame of your camera into thirds, both horizontally and vertically, place your subject of your design where the lines intersect, place the horizone line at the top or bottom of the horizontal divider, fill up the entire frame if you want to center an object for a close up image.
Leading lines- use the lines created within the foreground or background of the composition to lead the viewer's eye through the photo. Lines can draw attention to one or more intended subjects or a single focal point.
Point of view- the change in the way your subject is perceived by changing the camera position. If you are photographing a subject that you want to seem very tall, compose the shot tho that the camera is looking upwards, and vice versa.
Simplicity- Keep your background simple and clear of clutter. The mood and effectiveness of a photo can be altered by what is in the background. A chaotic composition will cause the viewer to look away.
I found this picture hilarious and a good example of this
I loved the colors in this picture, and how it is nowhere close to reality
