Maybe the reason it's called Rule of Thirds is because it takes me 3 times to get it right. I've been practicing my Shutter School lesson whenever I get a chance. Sometimes the pictures turn out right to begin with, but other times it takes several shots to get the balance right ---often three times!! Here are a few I took this evening:
Shot #1--Not bad, but kind of boring.
Shot #2--a bit better. I can see the thirds, but it is just a little blurry.
Shot #3---Much clearer and more interesting, I think! (I love that tiny bud at the bottom!)
Then here's the next one:
Shot #1--I didn't get the "thirds" at all in this one
Shot #2---This one (obviously from another angle) is interesting and I can kind of see the "thirds"
Shot #3---I kind of like this one----I cropped it a little bit on the bottom, so now it clearly uses the Rule Of Thirds and I like the way the sun glows through on the right. 
And my last one----this time, I got it right the first time. This is unedited and my favorite from this batch.
