Rule+of+Thirds


 * Rule of Thirds**

I picked this photo for multiple reasons. I shot and edited it on my iPhone 4G while on the USCGC Dorado on Sunday during Fleet Week. I feel I managed to capture a pretty cool image from the event and I am also impressed by the capabilities of my phone. It's definitely not the best quality photo ever, but for a phone it's quite spiffy. This particular image worked well for this assignment because there's a lot going on in it, so I was able to crop and make new images fairly easy, though had I acquired a usable shot of the F-18 Super Hornet breaking the sound barrier, I'd have used that instead. The leftover haze from the planes repeatedly flying past with their smoke trails really helped make the cityscape appear more interesting, as well as the time of day and location of the shot. The cutter I was on was actually one of the boats circling the area of flight for the planes, so they were flying right over head the majority of the time.
