    The horizon in the photograph is on the horizontal line dividing the lower third of the photo from the upper two-thirds. The tree is at the intersection of two lines, sometimes called a power point [1] or a crash point. [2] The rule of thirds is a rule of thumb for composing visual art such as designs, films, paintings, and photographs. [3]

[8] In a horizontally-aligned rectangle, there is one implied square for the left side and one for the right; for a vertically-aligned rectangle, there are upper and lower squares. [1]
