Rules.... Not for me... really?

I am not one for rules, especially when it comes to my photography. I like to be spontaneouse, edgy and sometimes rules get in the way of that.

And heres the '...but'...

One of the first thing that a photographer is thought is the 'rule of thirds'. You know what it is... basically, split a frame up horizontally and vertically into thirds and where the line intersect you get the 'perfect' composition. Yeah, right.

Well, maybe, because I recently spent a week in Devon, and the one day we didn't get a downpour of water from the heavens, we spent an afternoon at Lyme Regis and I took a few shots. And this one stood out. Perfect example of the rule of thirds... it was also a grab shot.
