I found an interesting artical from Digital Photo ... (show quote)
Thanks for hosting, Judy. I think understanding the concepts of
color, exposure, composition, clarity and certainly all the "rules"
of photography are important in learning how to capture images
that are compelling.
That said, there are just some times where you may have to
"bend" the rules a little...

This breaks rule #5 about the "golden hour," as it was taken mid day...but it's still a compelling image...

Here's another example of understanding light, but not always shooting an hour after sunrise, etc...

I don't agree with all the rules. For example "5. Always shoot in the best light, 1 hr. after sunrise and 1 hour before sunset...Golden Hours!". It all depends on what you are shooting - sometimes storm light is a lot better.
Here's one with leading lines.

There really is no hard core recipe in my opinion, but each point say much for sure.
Two from this week that have some of the qualities I think.

#5-the artical goes on to say just that.....Now, there are other times when the light is good, depending on your genre of photography.
If you’re a street photographer, you should try shooting during the middle of the day, when the light is sunny.
If you’re a flower photographer, you should try shooting when the sky is heavily overcast.
My thought is if you see something -take the photo and do your best to improve it. Some of the very best photos may be the ones you thought about trashing!
The rules are just suggestions to stimulate creativity...and visual appeal...

I've posted this one before but it is one of my favorites which clicks the guideline boxes in several areas:
#1 - emphasis on the subject - the blue and white boat against the monotone background
#3 - negative space - both the sky and water
#4 - the leading line is the causeway
#5 - NOT the best light - the fog is what makes this work

#2 scores with the panning technique and the contrast of the vivid car with the more pastel blurred background - I like this a lot!!
