The Rule Of Thirds technique begins by placing an imaginary grid over the location of your shot while looking through the camera. The grid consists of 9 even boxes, made by two horizontal and two vertical lines dissecting the image. The aim of this technique is to line up the main focus point of the shot on one of these 4 lines of the grid or on an intersection.
The below images were all taken on the senior school grounds using a Canon camera provided by the school.
My favourite photograph out of the following six would be the old yellow Mini Cooper. Although the background is slightly busy with the stairs up to the library and shadows created by the trees, the brightness of the car contrasts to the dull surroundings and therefore draws the attention to that third of the image.
The photo I chose for my least favourite is the top centre image with the red car in the parking lot. Although the technique has been followed with the placing of components on the dissection lines, the lighting is poor, the shadow from the car takes over and there is just too much going on potentially causing a viewer confusion on where he/she is supposed to be looking.
