Negative space is the area surrounding the main subject in a photograph which is left unoccupied. Put simply, it is the space around the object itself that helps define the positive space (or main focus). When used creatively together, negative and positive space can communicate the composition of your photograph.

One of the best kept secrets in Kyoto - I wish I could bottle the atmosphere at this place. It's just peace, quiet and the aroma of incense. The perfect tonic for the stresses of everyday life....and hardly a tourist to be seen. Do yourself a favor and contact me about our photography walkshops.
