While I hiked the Rio Grande Valley of New Mexico, I happened upon this Common Raven searching the ground for bits of sustenance. Ravens are members of the Corvus family which includes crows.
If photography is an art, are there rules?
No not really.
Art is the use of skill and imagination in the creation of objects, environments, or experiences that can be shared with others.
Skill: So as I venture out creating image after image and spend hours in the digital darkroom, I develop the first required item.
Imagination: If we free ourselves from external limitations (what they say we can or cannot do) we begin to think outside the box.
So photography is an art form without rules. Now that, is a game I can play.

I am a New Mexico based Adventure Riding/Rafting/SCUBA Outdoor Digital Photographer, always on the qui vive for what Nature and humans provide. Capturing an image in my camera is but the first step in an artistic process. That initial bit of information then can pass through countless permutations before being declared complete. The journey from capture to completion is a lawless territory. If photography is an art, then there are no rules.
