Exploring Framing
1. How can Framing give the photo Context?
"..framing a scene with an archway can tell you something about the place you are by the architecture of the archway or including some foliage in the foreground of a shot can convey a sense of being out in nature."
Framing a photo can give it context because it gives it a whole new perspective/story and it just leaves you wondering what's happening beyond the frame/picture.
2. How can Framing create a sense of depth in the photo?
"..in essence framing a shot generally puts something in the foreground which adds an extra dimension to the shot."
There are certain places that might look shadowed over by something and then there's the objects that you might use to center the photograph off of.
3. How can Framing create intrigue in the photo?
"Clever framing that leaves those viewing your image wondering a little or imagining what is behind your frame can be quite effective."
It just leaves the person "hanging" because there might be a hint of mystery or joy or sadness or any kind of emotion and that emotion leaves the viewer wanting more behind it and its background.
4. What are some examples of things that can be used to create Framing in the photo?
"..overhanging branches, shooting through windows, using tunnels, arches or doorways – you can even use people (for example shooting over shoulders or between heads) etc."
You can use anything really as long as it has an outline and there's something in the middle/near the middle to have our attention drawn towards it.
5. What should you consider when thinking about the depth of field in a photo that uses Framing?
Do you want it to be blurred out? Focused? Light? or Dark?
