I have cropped this image so that the boat is on the right-hand line dividing the image in thirds. I was tempted to place the image on the left-hand line. Doing this caused the fisherman in red to be too far left. He is in the center so it can still be argued by the centrists that this should be moved to the right-hand third.

I have been told that it is a physical fact that our eyes with give more importance to the sides than the center. That is to say, centered images do not convey as much drama.
