I can't believe the height of the image is helping your score here. IMO there is to much out of focus and what seems to be, 3 pillars, don't show much detail.5

To me, this is an example of rule of third...not thirds. (What do I know?) But, you get bonus points for showing 3 pillars in the foreground. The photo is a little soft, maybe on purpose? 7

The pillars in the foreground meet the rule of thirds discription but the picture looks out of focus and grainy.

I'm afraid, but this shot does not really seem com posed according to the rule of the thirds.

This looks cool, but I think there are simply too many pillars for the rule of thirds to be useful here.

You have met the challenge, but sadly there is not much detail in the posts. Not only is the focus not sharp enough, but the image overall seems a tad too dark. I would have liked to see the top of the pillars in the foreground also.

"...your points of interest should be placed on the intersections of those lines": to what should it apply?
