Good video! What is your opinion on rule of thirds composition when shooting portraits horizontally? (Because the isn't a lot of negativ space left to right.)
Thanks for watching! Portraits shot horizontally can definitely work, as I showed in this video. It just depends how you balance the other elements and space within the frame.
@@SeanGallagherPhotographer Thank you for your answer. Oh. I accidentally wrote "horizontally". What I meant was "vertically". Then the question makes more sens. I feel like offsetting a person, which fills the frame, in a vertical shot (9:16) looks weird, because you are pushing him/ her out of the frame, even though they are the main point of interest. On the other hand putting them perfectly in the middle of the shot is a bit boring and you miss the opportunity of showing the background, which often ads to the image. Do you have any tips regarding this situation?
I have canon r100 + Tamron 18-400mm lens, what is good settings for camera and what I do for good and sharp photo's? Give me some tips ,I use your tips like ISO, Sutter speed & aperture... Please help and make a video if you can.....
If you're having trouble with sharp photos, I suggest trying to hone your focusing skills. Make sure you're shooting with plenty of light and use your cameras autofocus setting. Switch to manual focus and practice your skills in getting different things in the frame sharp. Good luck ✊
I was wondering why in some or maybe most cameras the grid is not designed into this rule of thirds. In my nikon the frame is divided horizontaly and verticaly by 3 lines
Hi Andy. I am not familiar with each brand's set-up but perhaps there are options to change it in the settings? As the ROT is fairly simple, it's quite easy to keep the general principle in mind when shooting without needing the exact lines appear in the viewfinder. Good luck out there practicing! ✊📸

Thank you Sean. Lots of fantastic info!
Thanks for watching! 👍
Thank you. I have not been able to understand the rule of 3rd, until I watched this. Appreciate this.
Glad it helped! 👍
One if the reasons to use "rule of thirds" or more complex "dynamic composition" is that it enhances the optical perspective.
📸👍
Thank you 👍 The photo samples make it easy to follow.
Glad it was useful, Dennis 👍

Instead of putting out the fire. Lets take a picture.
?
It looks like your eyes are not correctly in focus. That is a bit distracting - still a good video!
👀
Lol is this a joke
There are no rules in photography- good photography that is.
That's why I referred to the "quote-unquote rules" in the video. It should really be called 'the guide of thirds'.
@@SeanGallagherPhotographer Agreed. Thanks for the great video. Enjoyed it very much. Cheers friend.
I thinks we need rules for all of aspect in life
