Rule of Thirds 1


The photo above demonstrates the application of the rule of thirds. The rule of thirds is a visual art rule that can create more tension, energy, and interest than just simply putting the subject in the middle. The sun sits at the intersection between the first horizontal line from the top and vertical line from the left. This positioning makes the sun appear even more powerful and its rays' have more depth within the photograph. This positioning also makes the sun appear as if it is crawling through these bare branches making the photo more interesting and appealing. The use of gray scale also provides texture to the branches adding to the photograph's appeal.
