i tend to follow the rule of thirds, but usually not on purpose. it's always been second nature to me.
the one time i do break the "rule" is when i do landscape shots. especially with a shot of trees or mountains reflecting in the water. with something like that i prefer a perfectly level and vertically centered photo. but that's just my preference... if i wanted to put more emphasis on the reflections in the water or the sky, i would move the horizon up or down accordingly.
