Rule of Thirds

-->

I took my own photograph that followed the Rule of Thirds. This image follows the Rule of Thirds because the main focus of the photograph is to the left of the image instead of having it in the middle. By having the main feature off centre, the image has become more interesting because you can see more of the background but also because it is not like a typical photograph (which only focuses on the middle of the image), it is unusual. It is also much more interesting because the main features (the girl’s faces) are not just placed to the side but are placed methodically so that they lie on either junctions or on lines that demonstrate the Rule of Thirds. I used Photoshop to add in the lines that represent the Rule of Thirds. I like this photograph because of its simplicity but how it still follows my theme of friendship. I chose to take this image because not only will it clearly demonstrate the Rule of Thirds but it also shows friendship in its simplest form, childlike and fun. To improve this photograph, I could have made it lighter in order for even more details to be seen.

         This is my photograph after adding the lines to symbolize the Rule of Thirds.

   This was my original photograph without the lines symbolizing the Rule of Thirds.
