Have a large object near the center of the photo offset by a
small object on the other side but closer to the edge. Pretend that
the center of the photo is the fulcrum and a heavy object near the fulcrum
is balancing a light object farther out. This is more interesting
than having two identical objects staring at each other.
Explanation of Balance from the Tutorial on Composition. See also Radial Balance.
But for good cause one may Break
the Rules: Central Subject.
Balance a large subject close to the center with a small subject
farther away
