I ended up cropping this image a bit on the top and some on the right because my subject was too centered. This photo could probably be cropped further along the top to be more in line with the rule of thirds. With moments like this, sometimes you just don’t have enough time to recompose. Be sure to leave yourself enough room so that you are still able to crop the image.

Sophie had just woken up from a nap and I distracted her with her favourite magazine… to rip up! Here she’s just taking a moment to examine the material before tearing it to shreds.
