My Photography - Rule Of Thirds

These are just two of the photos I took which contributed to my GCSE Photography coursework which particularly show effective usage of the rule of thirds.

Rule Of Thirds

Composition is very important when it comes to photography. The "rule of thirds" is a compositional technique with is a unique grid of lines arranged to divide your image into thirds (9 squares). Along one of these lines, or especially at an intersecting point of these lines, you want to position your most important (focal point) subjects in your photo. The rule gives an interesting effect which draws the viewers eye directly to the focal point.

School Magazines

Fearns Community Sports College School Magazine

These magazines are of summer 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010. Although the four different covers have completely different front pictures, they share the same format; having the school logo and motto at the top, with writing often on the bottom left corner - this shows that they are from the same school and follow on from each other. The covers uses bright colours and show pictures of students enjoying themselves which portrays the school as a fun place to be.
