Lo1: KTA3: Photography Examples - Rule of Thirds

The Rule Of Thirds:


The Rule of thirds means that the camera focuses mainly where the lines meet.
In Rule of Thirds Photography the main focus of the image is most likely to be found at
either side of the image, unless it is a portrait. Portraits will have the face in the centre of the image.
Where the lines meet are known as the Power Points.


My example of Rule of thirds:




Lo1: KTA3: Photography Examples - Leading Lines

Leading Lines:
 The use of the leading lines in this photograph are guiding the viewer to the main 
subject of the image, the windmill. The viewer is being drawn to the windmill because 
all the lines look as though they meet at a point at the windmill.

The leading line of the image is guiding the viewer from the edge of the image towards the 
hills on the opposite side. Also the viewer looks at the house within the picture. However the 
house is not the main focus of the image, the river is. This image could also represent the beginning
of a long journey. 

The Line in the image draws the viewers eyes to the stormy cloud at the end of the road.
The centre line of the road leads straight into the middle of the cloud, this is denotes that at the end of the journey there is trouble, a storm.
