I have another image in the Free Study for April. I am sure people will mark it down as well. It isn't an exact interpretation, it's free study but people don't like some types of images so I am sure it will not score high. Here is one reason why.
I know this isn't a conventional rule of thirds image but it is a rule of thirds image. The image is divided into three parts both vertically and horizontally. Look again.
This image was not taken specifically for this challenge. I rarely take an image just for a challenge. I look to my work and see what I think meets the challenge. I am too busy to just focus on images for challenges. I shot this at a photo shoot in NYC with Kerri Taylor. She is an excellent model who I am sure you would all love to work with so take that as an endorsement of her skills as a model.
Now back to my little image. The buildings split the image into three distinct sections left to right. Top to bottom the sky is the top third of the image, the buildings again take up the middle of the image and the wall behind Kerri splits off the bottom third of the image. So don't tell me it doesn't follow your limited vision of the Rule of Thirds. One commenter mentioned "He doesn't know where to look." That's because the entire image is meant to be looked as a whole. It is dynamic, interesting and a little sexy.
Yes I could have cropped it to put Kerri on the left or right and cut out much of the image. I didn't want to. You have to admit it is original. I am such a rebel. LOL. I hope you liked the image anyway despite my not so conventional rule of thirds according to Mike.
BTW Kerri is wearing a original Mike Randazzo designed Saran Wrap skirt and top which I wrapped her in just before shooting this image. The title comes from the fact that she could walk down the street in NYC any day of the week and nobody would think twice about her look. It would have been normal in New York to be seen in this outfit. We had a great time shooting too. Thanks Kerri for your talent and skill and time.

I'm not sure if this really fits the challenge or not. The model is centered left/right, and is in the bottom half of the frame. That doesn't place her on any of the "thirds". |

Subject is centered to much to be thirds, face centered, too. I guess I am not sure of your third technique... |

Taking two steps to the left or right would have put the girl and the tower on the third lines perfectly. As it is both she and the tower are central. |

I like it very much overall, viewpoint, model, background, but it seems she has an Empire State Building on her back and you it's marginal on the thirds. I'll have to compromise between my heart score and brain score. |

To me this does not comply with the rule of thirds at all..... The buildings are in the middl eof the image. The model is in the center as well. |

Good lighting except her face isn't in it. Interesting shot and well composed though not for rule of thirds, it's more of a centered composition. |

Doesn't seem to meet that challenge (IMHO). |

not sure I understand where you applied the rule of thirds here... |

I'm not entirely sure where I am supposed to look. I would rather see the model more to the left or right so she didn't have the ESB jutting out of her back. More shallow depth of field would be helpful here. |
