Photo Challenge: Lens-Artists #60 – Framing the Shot

This weeks challenge is to choose photos that illustrate different ways of framing images.

When shooting landscapes I like to use trees, flowers, and other foliage as a frame.

Doors, windows and arches provide frames for some of my photos.

  2. Beth, are the arches from Ft. Jefferson in the Dry Tortugas? It looks very familiar. In addition to framing, you used the rule of thirds in the Alaska photograph. It is my favorite way to shoot landscapes. I love how you framed the lighthouse through the seagrass. Very nice.
