Rule of Thirds

Rule of Thirds

The Rule of Thirds (Sometimes called the Rule of Thumb) is a guideline which can be applied to photographs and paintings. The photograph should be spilt into 9 equal parts which should be used as guidelines for positioning objects within the photo. It is proposed that the main focal point should not be centre of the picture, it should be placed on one of the intersections of the grid. (See below for example). This makes the photo look more natural and appealing to the viewer.
