The rule of thirds

Rule of thirds

The rule of thirds is an imaginary tic-tac-toe board is drawn across an image to break it into nine equal squares. The four points where these lines intersect are strongest focal points. The lines themselves are the second strongest focal points. With the rule of thirds, it is best that you do not have the main point of focus inside any of the squares.
As you can see in this photo, the line is cutting through the sun and the horison is just under one of the lines.
