I think formal element is use the 6 elements(lines, shape, pattern, texture, tone, focus.) to make simple purpose into great shots.

Lines: there are lots kinds of lines in photograph, some are straight and some are curvy. Lines can also separate the picture into two different parts that tells the same thing.  They can also create direction and show movement in the photograph.

Shapes: they can make contrast between the subject and the environment. There are also straight edged and curvy shapes in a photo.

Pattern: by repeat the same shape, objects, and lines in a photo we can form patterns echos and reflections in a picture.

Texture: how the picture feels and how you think inside the picture would feel if you were in the picture.

Tone: is the level of how bright or how dark something is, the darkest tone is solid black, the lightest tone is pure white.

Focus: is the area appears the clearest and the sharpest in the picture.
