The rule of 3rd is a method photographers use to produce quality pictures. It’s designed so the viewer’s eyes are draw to the entire picture, or whatever the photographer intended for the viewer to focus on. It divides the frame in to nine different sections. If a part of the picture lands on one of the cross sections of the lines that divide the photo, the viewer’s eyes are likely to be drawn to the spot. As well, anything that lies along the lines the viewers eyes will fallow.

| The faces of the snake, big skeleton, and devil scull land on intersects drawing your eyes around the picture. |
 |
| I put emphasis on the "c" by placing it on the top right intersection |
 |
| This photo is evenly spaced between the sections. As well the shoes land on a intersection. |
 |
| In this picture the bunny's eye lyes on the invisible intersecting lines. Eyes are often used as focal points. |
 |
| The words fallow a line and the mouse eye lands on an intersection. |
 |
| I wanted the big keys to land on the right hand sections to draw the eyes across the picture. |
 |
| The "hp" draws the most attention, so I placed it at the bottom right. Next, the viewer will catch the buttons at top drawing the eyes across the picture. |
 |
| The "No" Draws the most attention, so i placed it at the top center so the eyes would travel up the picture. |
 |
| The lid stand out significantly so I placed in the top right section. |
 |
| The eyes are drawn from bottom to top in the picture because the font gets bigger going up on the right line, ending with a fat hole in the top right section. |
You have the right idea but please go back and rework your explinations so that you are describing the part of the photo that you wanted to emphasize and how you used the rule of thirds to do that. For example, in the picture of the computer monitor, yes, the corners of the screen line up with the intersections, but the main subject of the image (the monitor) is still smack in the middle of the frame.
ReplyDeleteIn the image of the dumpster, the black lid stands out because it is darker but also because it lines up with the upper right intersection. To me the small sign is too centered to line up with an intersection, plus it is not the focus of the picture. If you wanted it to be, you would have to rearrange the frame.
Fyi: follow. lies.
Good work, keep going!
