Rules of Thirds and Rule of Z

Introduction
The rules of thirds refers to a technique that is used mostly by photographers to establish and separate the center of attention from the surrounding objects, this technique as also been adapted by content creators as a technique that they go by to create an eye fulfilling shot were everything that is present of the shot.
   The technique is titled the rule of thirds because the guideline consist of a three by three grind with each grid being equal in size.

When using the rules of thirds it is important to strategically place each subject and its surroundings in a particular grid in the guide line. In the example above the exist to road is placed in the furthest right of the middle row of the gridline. It is evident that the photographer had placed it there to connote that it is not the subject of the picture, the  subject of the image being placed in the middle grid thereby attracting the viewers attentions first. To contradict this there is another technique called the rule of Z; this technique is quite similar to the rule of thirds as they both use the same grid guide line. The rules of Z is called this because it states that the attention of the viewer of the picture will firstly directed to the upper left grid of the image followed by the attention being directed to the upper right section of the image and then the center grid of the image, this then continues by the attention of the viewer being directed to the lower left section of the grid and finally the attention is directed to the lower right section of the grid. After following the rule of Z the viewers attention will then be directed to the section of the image that they had not viewed; these sections being the middle left and middle right section of the of the guideline.
