thanks for describing the rule of thirds. I've been doing exactly that with my own photographs, but I did not know that there was a rule or a term for it. Thanks. You learn something every day. cheers.
The great thing about rules is that we can break them and make something different. It is a good rule in general but doesn't work for me with landscapes. Cheers! :-)
Hey Ross, good to hear from you fella. It is pretty inspiring to see these wide open spaces. Very difficult to capture but I do like a challenge. Hence the big tree on my back haha
Panoramas might be good there. They don't show up so well on any internet type platform though. A series of big prints on a wall would really be the best way to see it i think. Say about 10 ft high by 20 ft wide or so ; ) Then you would be standing right in it. I'm thinking of Monet's paintings in the Musee de L'Orangerie. Are you familiar with that? It's pretty amazing.
Here's a link where you can see them. It makes me a little dizzy the way it moves around
I agree, we need a big canvas to really take in these huge vistas and the web just doesn't do justice to panoramas even with the 360 shots. The Monet looks curved in the link but I can imagine what it looks like. I've seen the image in 2D before.
I like the idea of a bigger canvas.
My Monet example wasn't the best in regards to your landscape but it was his idea of a panoramic view that you stand in as if you are really there that i love! Yeah, a bigger canvas. Hmmm, i need a bigger monitor screen at least! :)
The first image above, kind of gets what I'm trying to capture in the landscape.
That tiny full grown tree in the distance. Gives some idea of vastness.
It's a tricky one for sure when most people will see it on a phone screen.
It's the photographic challenge that is interesting...at least to me ;-)

When I was first learning about the rule of thirds I was advised to decide what the photo was primarily about. Was it mainly about the sky? Was it the fields? And I would say, no it's about everything! Nice photos, love the last shot... come on, lift that thing!
Yep I was talking to my daughter-in-law about the difficulties of photographing these wide open landscapes and spaces (she's very creative) and she said 'think about the colours' and with that in mind this was my first shoot using that idea.
For me it was as you say about the whole thing. The contrast between the blue sky and the green field in the first photo and then the green of the field with the washed our tiny section of sky.
The last shot should be titled. Where did you want this? ;-)
That's great, you will see these vast open places especially if you travel by train. It's a mystical place with very few humans about. I haven't been to Norwich in years. Hope you enjoy it.

Photos looks great. The last one cracked me up. 😂
Hey Jo, what do ya know lol It cracked me up too, trying to lift it onto the BBQ! 😂
I love the serenity of those fields :) Lots of space for clouds to float by.
Cracking up at the tree your carrying. ; )

Perfect... or Hold the door, I'm bringing it in!
I have travelled a couple of times by bus in the UK and the scenarios you find... Even just from the highway are gorgeous 😊

The UK has just about every kind of scenery you could think of. We are very lucky to have such abundance.
Those photos are beautiful. The last picture OMG😱
Yep that is exactly what I was saying while underneath it... OMG😱 lol
Pleasing pictures, last one showing tremendous strength. :-)
I like to keep fit Mike. Lifting a few logs works for me lol
Ha ha ... you are my new hero...
Very good and interesting content. East Anglia is an underrated part of the UK with hidden beauty. I'm expecting to visit Norwich, East Anglia in May.
That's great, you will see these vast open places especially if you travel by train. It's a mystical place with very few humans about. I haven't been to Norwich in years. Hope you enjoy it.
