Picturing a Frame Within a Picture Frame

One of the most striking field techniques around is foreground framing. Used effectively, it helps direct the viewer's eye right to the photo's star attraction.
 Frames come in all shapes and sizes. Some background around a subject entirely, while other frames are partially between them, ie, the side, top or bottom. Examples of design features include branches, arches, windows, doors, sculptures, fences, menacing rock formations, fountains, flowers, architectural elements, the outstretched arm of a companion, or a hot air balloon race in a close color.

Although the cross in the foreground is often spotlight your center of interest, an extra-special frame is sometimes the main subject in itself. Frame can also display the topic in relation to its environment and can also produce three-dimensional effect, which wipe out the scene from front to back.
