A shape is both an outline and enclosure, although the extent to which it appears as one or the other depends very much on the subject and the lighting. Shape, ultimately, defines an object but it can also be implied in much the same way as a line can.
Shapes can be regular or irregular. This means that some are easily identifiable with a simple geometric outline, like a rectangle or a triangle, while others are uneven and appear to fall into a category, in a photograph, the more regular a shape appears, the stronger the part it plays in the composition.
