Another oldie but goodie… The red leaf conforms to the Rule of Thirds, and there is some colorful bokeh in the background—as requested by this week’s Photo Challenge, Rule of Thirds.

LOL I tend to follow it editing, too. Usually I try to center and focus when I shoot something. My camera won’t focus on anything not right in the middle because I use my iPhone.
