One of my recent monthly photo magazines had a "sharpen your skills" article. You know the kind: Go out and shoot lots of photos doing the following... One of the exercises listed was called, "look at the edges".
Forgot all about the so called rules of composition. Put a huge blob of negative space in the center of your image, let your focal point(s) fall on one of the edges. See what happens. Learn something.
Wellllllllll, OK. I started with this (it wasn't quite "as on the edge" as I thought when composing in the viewfinder.
So, I cheated and used crop to get it "more on the edge"
I'm not headed this way for the majority of my shots, but it sure looks like something to keep in mind.
