The house is NOT an example of the S curve rule being "broken," it is an example of the symmetry rule being broken. The author I guess accidentally inserted the same river pic as the top photo as an example of braking the s curve rule. Re read the last line carefully. I think Dawn has it correct here.

So when i look at it the first seconds it draws my attention to it and then i look at the details after that. Strange, but I just realised this just now. I wonder if that is a common reaction to some of you. It is a trick to the eye that unconsciously point your attention to it. The subject is very good and i think that is what good photography is all about. Some pictures feels uncomfortable and seems to ring unbalance to your ear. Maybe my brain is telling me that the picture is not symmetric. The river has the stronger color on the picture.

Im a landcaper and over the years of doing it,I now natually feel and interprete my surroundings and what it makes me feel where ever i am. Im in the habit of constantly figuring out why Im feeling what Im feeling, negetively and positively. As Ive read your stuff It great to be able to understand and transfer this to my beginings in Photograghy. We speak the same intuitive language. I found your stuff to be very helpfull.

Notice the porch railing. An S-curve is usually seen as the river winding away from from us, going from front to back, or diagonally leading us down the view.The usual S-view is like that of a snake wiggling to escape us. The S-curve of the house is like the s-view of a snake that is going from left to right across our line of vision.Imagine the view if you are down at ground level with the snake. First imagine the snake going away and second picture the snake going sideways across your view. The s-curve in the house is facing us. Notice the porch railing.
