Using a frame within a frame is a neat way to lead your viewer's eyes towards your subject. This can be done in many ways.
Check out some of the examples below.
Note that some examples use a foreground frame, while others use a background frame. There are a lot of possibilities here, not just doorways and windows. Here's a partial list of elements to consider:
Archways, Bridges, Doors, Windows, Mirrors, People, Ceilings, Bokeh, Curtains/fabric, Fireplaces, Multiple frames within a frame, Light, Shadow, Organic material, Negative space, Reflections, Color
Take a 2-minute search (when your teacher asks you to) for FRAME WITHIN A FRAME PHOTOGRAPHY on Google Images. Get some ideas!
You have some time now to go around and take your best frame-within-a-frame images. Be careful of your focus!
When you return:
- Look on your Classroom stream for a link to a shared Drive folder. Copy one or two images to that folder for sharing next class.
- Pick your four best images (if they are of adequate quality) and put them in their own folder for later. Log the settings for those four images on the Metadata spreadsheet (use the following format as an example: "1/200s f/8 ISO 200 55mm P")
