    Rule of thirds was the first composition rule I learned when I began photography may years ago, and has stuck with me since.

      It’s pretty bulletproof.

      Unless I have a damn good reason, things usually end up on the thirds lines in some way.

      You and me both. I remember still to this day the roll of film I shot after learning about it. I was really young and that roll really got me into photography.

      Rule of thirds, framing, and leading lines are the ones taught to me when I first took interest in photography. It’s been really helpful to me, but it’s really the rule of thirds really that stuck to me.

      I guess cameras having those rule of thirds (or fifths) guide lines helped a lot too.
