LOL, I am not a wedding photographer. This is a "stolen" shot. The official photographer is on the other side of the pillars taking a frontal shot. So, sorry to disappoint.

Rules Broken:-

(1) Amputation;

(2) Negative space "behind" the subject matter.

Breaking the Rules of:-

(1) moving objects should move "into" the frame and not moving "out";

(2) not "cutting" the frame into equal half;

(3) having the "negative space" in front of the subject matter.

Which composition rule?

Thanks.

Quote:- " I would not have minded to see a bit more mask and less ceiling...." Neither was I, but it was not exactly an ideal situation for contemplative composition with those sparks falling, or threaten to fall, onto the camera lens? :)

Yep, and I had to fire the shutter, (no pun intended), and get out of the way quick as sparks well raining down.

Thanks.
