The rule of thirds is a “rule of thumb” or guideline which applies to the process of composing visual images such as designs, films, paintings, and photographs. The guideline proposes that an image should be imagined as divided into nine equal parts by two equally spaced horizontal lines and two equally spaced vertical lines, and that important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or their intersections. Proponents of the technique claim that aligning a subject with these points creates more tension, energy and interest in the composition than simply centering the subject.

Below: The BEST way to IMPROVE YOUR PHOTOS by James Popsys
Improving your photography is hard, mainly because lots of other photographers give wildly varying advice, based only on their own preferences. I think by far the best way to take more photos YOU like, is to study others you’ve taken in the past that you’re proud of, and work out how to bring those learnings to your future images. That’s what I do with my photos in this video :)

It only really matters what you think of your photos. But do you know why a good photo is good and a bad photo is bad? Understanding this can massively help you improve your photography.
Canon doesn’t score very well in Chris and Jordan’s hit lists. They classify the Canon Rebel SL3 as “worst camera of 2019”. At least the EOS R ranks first in the category “most improved camera via firmware”.
The Sony a7R IV is DPReview TV’s best camera of 2019, and the Panasonic S1H best hybrid camera of 2019. The Tamron 35mm f/1.4 is their best lens of 2019. And here is the video about best and worst gear of 2019:
Uh, does that mean something? According to data published by Map Camera there is no Canon camera among the top 10 cameras (new) sold in Japan in November 2019.
Map Camera posts sales figures for both new and used cameras.In the “new cameras” ranking the first Canon camera to rank, at position 12, is the EOS R. Other interesting fact: first and second ranked are both APS-C cameras.
Astronomik (website) announced new clip filters for cameras in the EOS R lineup (EOS R, RP, and Ra).
Press release:
Astronomik presents Clip Filter for Canon EOS R, Ra and RP
We are proud to present our latest development to you today:

All Astronomik filters are now also available as Clip filters EOS R!
The Astronomik CLS-CCD is our advice as an ideal “all-round filter”: The CLS-CCD largely suppresses artificial light pollution and enables deep, long-exposures even from locations with strong light pollution while giving your natural colors!
Beside the CLS-CCD the Astronomik emission line filters H-alpha, SII and OIII with 12nm and 6nm FWHM are available.The Astronomik ProPlanet 642 BP, 742 and 807 give the the infrared photographer a wide range of filters at his disposal. The UV+IR blockers L-1, L-2 and L-3 complete the family.
