Composition is such a large and vast subject, I, myself, would not even try to "teach" it on-line. OK, I am not a good typist. I teach a class on Photo Composition at U. W. in Madison, WI. It is 6 hours long and just gets things started. Be careful, composition is composition but changing contrast and other alterations are not really part of composition. Perhaps a necessary task but not really composition. The photo software you use does make a huge difference. Maybe not in the results as much as in your frustration level and time spent. Photoshop and my brain do not get along. I do not own a copy. I use Irfanview as my default software. It is free and user friendly. I'd rather be out taking more pictures than sitting in front of the computer playing with shots already taken. Gene.
