For this project, we had to be creative and find different gaps in buildings or breaks in structures to make one main focus in our photos. This helped to make our photos more creative and interesting. This is different from the Rule of Thirds project in many ways. Mainly, the objective is different. In Rule of Thirds, we had to have the main focus of the image on one or two of the thirds lines on our camera. The main idea in Rule of Thirds was to make your eye focus on one thing in the photo. This is similar to Framing, but instead you are using different objects to draw the attention towards the main focus, instead of the thirds lines. Pictured above is my favorite photo from this project, because I was able to create a double-frame to frame Ela. I really like how this picture turned out because Ela is focused between the stair railings, making it a very interesting photo. A challenge I faced when using this type of composition was thinking of creative ways to make frames, not just simple things like doorways.
