Weekly Photo Challenge: Rule of Thirds
The Rule of Thirds is a photography concept that puts the subject of the photograph off-center, which usually results in blank space in the rest of the image. If you focus closely on your subject and use a wide aperture, your photograph’s background will also be beautifully blurred in that blank space. The blurred area behind your focal point is referred to as bokeh, and when executed well, it adds depth and artistry to an otherwise simplistic photograph.
There are more bugs….
A tiny bug on the end of a leaf caught with my macros lens.
A couple little bromeliads growing on a tree limb.
I love this little red bug (caught with my macros lens)
