Dome
Another scene from one of my favorite locations visited in the Caribbean, the Old San Juan Cemetery. Hey look, I broke the rule of thirds yet again! That orange dome against the ocean just intrigued the heck out of me, although as I recall I was 90% of the way towards a heat stroke by this point so instead of the usual 5 to 20 frames I usually take of a good scene, this is the only one I have of the dome itself, isolated against the background.

The color and contrast raise this above average, Charles. The bright red against the dark blue is striking. The “rule” of thirds is only a guideline. And rules are meant to be broken, anyway. They’re meant for the other guys.

Makes me remember a Photo Quest we once made at vox.com (r.i.p.). This is a brilliant example that show that ROT rules have to be broken sometimes! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the comments, the rules are meant to be broken sometimes aren’t they?
