Sounds like a paradox to me. Follow all of the “rules” and your photos will look like all the others. Ignore the all of the rules and you will likely make some silly mistakes. My theory has always been to know the rules well enough to know when the can be bent or broken.

@ Brent - That is certainly a way to look at it. Often times (although probably not often enough) I try to express those exact thoughts. Knowing how and when to break the rules will take your photography to a much higher level.

But you do have to know some of the rules first or you’re just kinda getting lucky (to put it crudely).
