Framing Your Subject

For this project we had to use objects in our surroundings to frame the subject in our photos. For example in the picture above, I used the railing of the bleachers to frame and bring attention to the subject of the picture, Matia. This project is like the opposite of the rule of thirds. In this one we used our surroundings to bring attention to one specific part of the picture, while we used rule of thirds to create flow in the picture and let the eyes travel to other places. It was challenging in this project to line up the subject with whatever I was framing them and having the camera focus on the right thing.
