Rule of Thirds

Aesthetic appeal –
a photographer’s aim

give the eye contrasts,
and colours, and frame

each image off centre,
in thirds, is the game.

(For Nancy Merrill’s A Photo A Week Challenge: rule of thirds.
Not sure if the last picture qualifies, but it was too awesome not to include, lol. Girl Power!)

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.

  2. I’ve often wondered about the “rule” of odd-numbered “pairings” of things. I once went to a jeweler to have a ring made from an old one with an even number of stones to transfer…he said it like it was law: “I’ll have to add another diamond”. Being still so unassertive (working on that yet, maybe forever), I just went along 🙂
