Asymmetrical Balance in Photography, Part 1

One of our plans for 2020 is to write and/or showcase examples of various photographing rules. One of them is asymmetrical balance. Asymmetrical Balance is a design that looks balanced despite a lack of symmetry. Design education often includes a rule that elements should be symmetrical because people find this more attractive. See part 2 of asymmetrical balance in photography.
