READ: Framing

Directs the Eye
These are the two concepts we'll look at: framing that surrounds the subject and framing that adds depth to the image by establishing a foreground or background.
Here's another of Gary's amazing photographs. First see how the Christmas tree on the left frames the image and directs the eyes to the rest of the image. It makes the viewer feel like he's peeking around the tree. By using the tree in the foreground and catching the moon in the background, Gary created visual depth.
