Here are two shots; one with the subject centered and one with it following the rule of thirds. Having the picture off-center, falling on the 1/3 dividing line, often helps make for an interesting picture when the subject is pretty straight forward.
I learned in an oil painting class that if you have your subject touching/going outside of the picture's border, it also helps create a more interesting image than when it is straight in the center.
With the ruleso f the third it is hard when you get 2/3 of your picture is blury. Such as in your first example.
ReplyDeleteNice job. I was looking at my blueberry bushes with the camera the other day too.
ReplyDeleteThe combination of the macro affect and the rule of thirds really draw your attention to the object in the photograph. As I commented on another blog, the rule of thirds really does make the photographs more interesting than simply centering every object in the frame. Very nice!
