Focal Point Definition
I agree with this definition, albeit a short one, but a focal point does not have to be in focus. the whole photo could be in focus but the main points are generally where the rule of thirds dictates, but this works both ways. this photo for example is mainly out of focus or blurred in editing, but you can tell the main focus point is the woman as there is no distracting background to confuse the eye.

I like this photo not just because of its dramatic yet luxurious feel, but also its simplicity. although it doesn't use any obvious focus or use of the rule of thirds, it fills the majority of the frame with the woman and uses a strong contrast to bring the attention to the mask and face. the mask has very bold, defined lines whilst the rest of the frame has a soft vignette leading into the face, something that in my opinion could only be done via post-shoot editing or a very skilled photographer.

this slideshare is rather basic but there were little slideshares with any relevant information. this could be improved by going into more detail instead of giving a brief overview of the points.
