Nor must the rule of thirds be observed, nor must horizons be off center!
Some folks on here certainly have a lot of rules for things that are 100% personal preference and artistic choices. I realize that these ideas exist for a reason, but sometimes I feel like people have a checklist of flaws they look for when they C+C, regardless of the overall perception of the image.
There are lots of other things like this too, but the ones I mentioned seem to happen all the time.... Use your eyes, not your textbooks!
(not directed at anyone in particular, because I think we all do it to some extent. gotta remember to think outside the box)
