[QUOTE="Stoshowicz, post: 540224, member: 31397"] Rule of thirds, as do the rest of the rules , suggest relative weights and relationships that various components have in a composition. For instance if the horizon is on the upper line,, then the ground can be considered to have relative greater importance in the image. A person in the Left box facing the left , is looking OUT of the image. This is the proper way to consider these rules for the photographer ,, because the majority of people looking at the images will share this same language of visual rules, and so , can 'understand' the communication. Repetitive themes , say lines,, on the same diagonal ,,suggest a common connection. These connections tend to follow basic geometric principles and CAN be useful in creating compositions, and unify a composition. But they don't ensure that an image will look good, and just as easily make an image look boring ,disturbing ,confusing ,etc and so forth. [/QUOTE]
