Perhaps it is because we are sticklers after all for the rules governing good symmetry, that we once again turn our attention to the subject of The Rule of Thirds.
Yes, if you’re counting at home, this is indeed our third blog post on the rule because, well, just like this article on fotohacker.com says, everything happens in threes. (And if you’re just joining this program already in progress, feel free to check out our first and second posts on the topic; we’ll wait.)
Jason Paterson of fotohacker.com refers to this rule as “combat centering”, which seems like a great metaphor for describing the careful alignment of your camera subject in one of the “crosshairs” that intersect horizontally and vertically.
Be sure to check out Jason’s post for his complete take on this subject (wraparound cat scarf sold separately).
