ETC en-us 2016-08-25 07:55:32 UTC 2025-05-08 14:34:57 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/EricaSklenars/311j7r6ag3sx/wish/119762490 Rule of thirds: Branch in the bottom third. Bird occupies the middle third and near the right. Parallel lines (almost) with the bird and the the branch.
Negative space, background is muted to focus on the focal point.]]> 2016-08-25 07:57:20 UTC https://padlet.com/EricaSklenars/311j7r6ag3sx/wish/119762490 https://padlet.com/EricaSklenars/311j7r6ag3sx/wish/119762529 This shot from Citizen Kane (1941) shows a good use of establishing a focal point by placing something closer to the camera and by making that object larger than the others in the frame (Kane - to the left) as well as the rule of thirds (Kane mainly occupies the left most third as well as having the intersections being roughly around his head and body and his friend - Jedediah - occupying the right most third and the intersections being on his head and hands). ]]> 2016-08-25 07:57:45 UTC https://padlet.com/EricaSklenars/311j7r6ag3sx/wish/119762529 https://padlet.com/EricaSklenars/311j7r6ag3sx/wish/119762542 this uses both negative space and rule of thirds- 
the negative space (the black background) brings all attention to the elephant. rule of thirds- the top of the elephant lines up with the upper horizon line and gives nice balance to the overall image. ]]> 2016-08-25 07:57:58 UTC https://padlet.com/EricaSklenars/311j7r6ag3sx/wish/119762542 https://padlet.com/EricaSklenars/311j7r6ag3sx/wish/119762658 2016-08-25 07:59:37 UTC https://padlet.com/EricaSklenars/311j7r6ag3sx/wish/119762658 https://padlet.com/EricaSklenars/311j7r6ag3sx/wish/119762782 Interesting use of rule of thirds. Horizon line at street level.
Mid eye level view with the bike as the focal point.
Sorry I dont know how to resize image.
