The rule of thirds is a simple composition technique that helps you to take more engaging photographs. It involves dividing your image into three sections, both horizontally and vertically. Thinking about your composition in this way can help you to frame your images.
When taking photographs, you should always ask yourself, what are the points of interest, and where am I intentionally placing them? Dividing the composition into thirds can help you to focus on essential points or create a balanced photograph.
In addition to the sections, our eyes are also automatically drawn to the points where the lines intersect. This means that putting the most important part of your picture at these intersections can make the photographs more engaging to your audience.
Keep practising the rule of thirds, and you’ll soon be able to take well composed photographs every time
