The 2/3 focus rule that doubles depth

Depth is what separates a flat photo from a great one, and the two-thirds rule is the simplest way to create it.

Place your subject's midpoint around the lower two-thirds of the frame. That single decision anchors the composition, giving the ground weight and the space above the subject room to unfold.

It works because it engages the whole frame. A centered subject let your eye rest. A subject placed on the two-thirds line makes your eye travel — down to the subject, then up into the space. That movement is depth.

With slay, you don't have to eyeball it. Choose a guide that places its anchor in the lower two-thirds and frame your shot around it.
