Rule of Thirds & Thirst by sbolden

Rule of Thirds & Thirst

Photography Rule of Thirds: "The rule of thirds is a 'rule of thumb' or guideline which applies to the process of composing visual images such as designs, films, paintings, and photographs. The guideline proposes that an image should be imagined as divided into nine equal parts by two equally-spaced horizontal lines and two equally-spaced vertical lines, and that important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or their intersections."

Scott's Rule of Thirst: "Whenever Corona or other beer bottles or containers are used to illustrate the "Photography Rule of Thirds", the beer must be fully consumed by the photographer regardless of how many photographic attempts were made such that beer is never wasted. This rule was formalized on July 27, 2013 while grilling outdoors."
hahahahaha I will adhere to that rule always - I love Coronas hahaha - i feel a corona inspiration coming on - it may take a while to perfect though - great idea and fab execution :)
