There are many techniques how to frame a picture what element the photographer would use to create that photo. First we have a look at Rule of thirds. This is a square based composition. Basically the screen would be sliced for three thirds horizontally and vertically. The best composition is if you would but the main element somewhere near to the crossing point of the thirds.

| Rule of thirds |
The horizon is a bit lower than it logically would be and you can see the tower runs along the line of the third and meet with the bottom one. It also gives a balance to the picture.
Point of view
Point of view will give an interesting angle to the viewer. Try to see and capture the field as a photograph.
On this picture the photographer changed the point of view by lowering it it gives a different perspective to the viewer.

Geometrical shapes
Shapes and patterns and symmetries what catches your eye. Symmetrical shapes can give a kind of rythm to the picture. Like Henri-Cartier Bresson used the shape of the stairs and the rails to create an abstract image but he also brought some movement some live into the frame with the cyclist.

Negative space
Creative space drags more attention to the subject. Negative space is the space around your subject; the space can be totally contrasting from the subject making it visually easier for the viewer to grasp.
Simplicity
With this composition the photographers try to keep the frame simple and make the viewer easier to focus only on the subject.
