Hi, Does anybody know if it is okay to change a focusing screen in an F2 whilst there is still film in the camera?

I have taken this shot so the eye leads up to the ruins like an upside down 'V' shape. I am now thinking that perhaps I should have used the rule of two thirds to compose this image. Hindsight is a wonderful thing :confused: Any thoughts? The photo was taken with a Nikon F2as with a 28mm...
