What is the rule to thirds in photography

The rule-of-thirds is a simple way to create interesting compositions using no complicated camera settings. It divides your photo into nine equal parts horizontally as well vertically. This creates three main areas for your subject to appear. These are the top (3rd from the left), middle (3rd from center) and bottom (3rd from lower right). These areas can be used as guidelines for positioning your subject within the frame.

The rule to thirds allows you to avoid placing important elements too closely together or too far apart. You might not have enough space between them for a strong visual impact if you put them close together. If they are placed too far apart, it can cause them to lose focus.
