Boxy composition is not a term I'm familiar with.
Is it as in square frame? Or square composition within other aspect ratios? Left to interpretation? |

Maybe we should ask the person who suggested this, otherwise this challenge will be open to many interpretations... that also could be a plus ;) |

It's open to many interpretations. The person who proposed the challenge chose NOT to provide a narrow definition. Show us what it means to YOU! |

Not a term I'm familiar with in terms of composition, either, MarioPierre, but I did a definition search on just the word "boxy" and came up with "restricted in tone" (which I don't think applies here) and "cramped" (which I suspect does apply). So I would guess the viewer felt "boxed in" by the composition and wanted more space - possibly just in one or two directions, possibly all around. Just my guess, though.
Ah, I obviously misinterpreted the reason for the question. Sorry. Still, maybe the definition of 'boxy' is germaine.

I guess it definitely could give someone "an edge". ;) |

"boxy" makes me think of a fashion style (Channel?), a suit with a sort of short tight skirt, a jacket that could almost be made out of a packing box, torn apart and of a suitable cloth; all topped by a pillbox hat. very haute, very unfeminine. |

Those creations are cool. Like playing paper dolls with people. |

Please remember to resize large images if you're inserting them into a thread, or turn it into a thumbnail. Thank you! |
