[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 19292, member: 1061"] Typically, I would agree with you. But in this case, following the Rule of Thirds will almost always result in a more pleasing composition. This requires some research, but the arts are very closely tied to mathematics. If you dig around, you will find that the most aesthetically pleasing works all follow some basic design principals, and many of the artists also studied math and astronomy. Stonehenge, the pyramids, and countless other wonders of man are all part of some greater scheme that still hasn't been unraveled after thousands of years. You many not know it, Jen, but even your avatar pic follows mathematics. Have a look at the Fibonacci Spiral. :) [/QUOTE]
