THE WORKSHOP
In this mini-project, our students had the chance to experiment with the rule of thirds.
The task: To compose photographs so that the focus is placed on:
- One of the intersection
- One dominant vertical element
- One dominant horizontal element
- Your subject is moving or facing a particular direction.
The rule of thirds is likely the easiest compositional principle for beginning photographers can apply to take better pictures.
The rule of thirds states that if you divide a photograph vertically into thirds and horizontally into thirds then:
- The point of interest within the photograph should lie at one of the intersection points
- Horizontal and vertical elements should lay along the lines
