Highlighting the subject of your picture by putting additional foreground is called framing in photography. This usually involves blurring the framing element by using a small depth of field. The purpose of framing is to draw the viewer’s eye into the photo by setting the scene of the image. This isolates the subject from distractions and creates a focused image to draw the viewer’s eye. It also makes depth in the image. When creating or finding a frame you aften need to step back and look for something to use as a frame. The frame should at least be on two of the sides of the photos to effectively use the framing technique.
The leaves in this photo effectively isolate the do not enter sign on all sides to create a frame.
The dark lines of the window create a frame on three sides of the image to isolate the red tree and make is stick out.
One of the holes on the sign post focus your eyes on the gray car while the rast of the post is out of focus.
This is my favorite picture from the framing section because of the frame created by the blurred out leaves on all sides and focused on the car which is the subject of the image.
