Rule Of Thirds

Rule of thirds 

The basic idea of the rule of thirds is to imagine breaking an image into thirds horizontally and vertically so you have 9 parts as seen in the image below.

The rule of thirds identifies four important parts of the image that you should consider placing points of interest in as you frame your picture. The main idea is that if you place points of interest on the intersections or on the lines than your picture turns out more balanced. This is because studies have shown that peoples eyes usually go to the intersections.

For example in this picture the person 
has situated the woman's head in the intersection part so your eyes are drawn to her. If she was centred in the middle of the picture than it would look more awkward so because this is off centre it creates another interesting point to the image. 




This is the example of rule of thirds we took this will help us with composition when it comes to our final piece.
