In photography to shoot a great picture, you have to think about what you are shooting and how you want the finished product to look. When you look at professional photographs you might have noticed that most of the time, the focus of the photo is not centered. Most of the time it is off to the side a bit. What the photographer is using is called the rule of thirds.
A good way to think of the rule of thirds is to pretend that their is a tic-tac-toe board on top of your picture. Wether you know it or not, when you look at a picture, you eye is drawn to the places where the lines intersect. This is where you want to position you subject. It will make you photo look more interesting and appealing.
In this first picture, you can see how I positioned the flowers using the rule of thirds. Your eye is naturally drawn to the flowers.
In this picture, the rooster's head is placed so that it is where two lines of the imaginary tic-tac-toe board would cross.
