Quadrant framing — dividing the frame into four equal quadrants with a crosshair, then positioning the subject at an intersection or in one quadrant to create visual balance and tension.
When to use it: Quadrant framing gives you a more structured grid than the rule of thirds. The crosshair splits the frame into four equal zones, perfect for minimalist or architectural shots where symmetry and negative space (the empty areas around the subject) matter. Place your subject at the center intersection for bold symmetry, or shift it into one quadrant to add tension while keeping overall balance.
