Classic Compositon: Rule of Thirds {Week 44}

Our August topic is Classic Rules of Composition. The Rule of Thirds is a traditional guideline for composing an image which divides the canvas into nine equal parts. In composing your image, placing a point of interest on an intersection point which measures one third from the side edge of the canvas or from the top or bottom edges, results in a more visually interesting image than with an alternate placement.

Below is a photo of my oldest son, still very much an amateur swimmer. But security comes in all forms. Sometimes it's as simple as an inflatable fish boat and a couple of water wings.

Happy Summer!
