Composition guidelines like the Rule of Thirds exist for a reason, but the photographers who stand out are the ones who know when to follow them and when to break them.

Join me as I analyze a "failed" image where I gave the photo too much sky and got blocked by a bad foreground, and then compare it to a Blue Hour image from the same spot that works perfectly.

We’ll cover how to balance the sky in your frame, when to ignore composition rules, and how a surprise appearance by Jupiter and the Moon turned a standard shot into something special.
