I don't know if the "rule of 3rds" would do anything. Also is it necessary to compose all your shots with this "rule"?

Elaborate on "all that stuff".

I think another "rule" is that your eye should go left to right, which this one does. I think it works.

Yes. You are right. It is not necessary to compose all the shots with the rule...
I break it myself quite some times ... :):
May be I was overdoing it ... :):
Mean no harm :):

If I might add my 2 cents.

I like the shot but feel the comp. is too tight - I would have liked the top of the tree in shot and likewise the right side of the bush.

I feel that I want to see more of the desert beyond and that there is too much foreground but appreciate that the ideal shot of just the tree on the left side of the pic wasn't possible. Maybe if you had panned right a bit and had the bush on the left side and the open vista to the right or where there more bushes out of shot?

Just my 2 cents worth as I say. (I could be and probably am talking b*ll*cks!)
