What is the rule of thirds?
What is the rule of thirds?
- A guideline that divides a photo into nine equal parts, with two equally spaced horizontal and vertical lines (correct)
- A guideline that divides a photo into four equal parts, with two equally spaced horizontal and vertical lines
- A guideline that divides a photo into six equal parts, with two equally spaced horizontal and vertical lines
- A guideline that divides a photo into eight equal parts, with two equally spaced horizontal and vertical lines

What should be placed at the four intersection points of the rule of thirds grid?
- Natural straight lines
- The most important elements (correct)
- The corners of the central square
- The two equally spaced horizontal and vertical lines
What is the best way to create a simple and effective composition?
What is the best way to create a simple and effective composition?
- Place the most important elements at one of the four intersection points
- Place natural straight lines along one of the four grid lines (correct)
- Place the corners of the central square along one of the four grid lines
- Place the two equally spaced horizontal and vertical lines along one of the four grid lines
Study Notes
- The rule of thirds is a guideline that divides a photo into nine equal parts, with two equally spaced horizontal and vertical lines.
- The corners of the central square are the intersections points in your rule of thirds grid.
- When your image includes natural straight lines, like a landscape or tree, placing them along one of the four grid lines creates a simple and effective composition.
- Otherwise, the most important elements should be placed at one of the four intersection points of these lines.
