Frame & Composition: Activity 3

Images that Follow the Rule of Thirds:


The tree exemplefies the Rule of Thirds in that it falls along the rightmost line and the branches also fall along the two rightmost power points. It allows for the eye to focus on the tree and then flows into the background.

The ship in this picture is also following the rule of thirds in that it is sailing off the frame and into the distance. It is aligned on the bottom horizontal line and also on the rightmost vertical line.

Images that Do Not Follow the Rule of Thirds:

This statue is not following the rule of thirds because it is centered, rather than moved off to the left side to allow the picture to have more balance.

The shell is also not following the rule of thirds in that it is centered in the frame as well. If it were to be shifted to either the left or to the right it would have the proper balance this rule requires.
