The rule of thirds is a compositional technique where an image is divided into thirds both horizontally and vertically using imaginary lines or grids, and the subject or important elements of the image are placed along these lines or their intersections. Examples show magazine covers, contents pages, and spreads using this technique by positioning subjects, mastheads, or other elements along the gridlines to create a more engaging and balanced composition.
