I have a great appreciation of the basic rules of composition. But I definitely don't appreciate the generally accepted statute that all photography should be constrained within their (rules) boundaries. I consider rule breaking as stepping beyond the boundaries to explore new ground. It’s about daring to be different. It’s about looking for impact. It’s about conveying my minds eye. It’s about making a statement. It’s about leaving the room while a question hangs uncomfortably in air. It’s about I see what you see but with a twist. But it should never be an excuse for my second best.
