This first is a picture of my son in a tent. I like how the tent door as well as my overlarge sunhat both frame him in this photo.
This is a photo of a sculpture at Thea Alvin's house in Morrisville, I like how this sculpture essentially frames itself. (Thea Alvin was the instructor of an "Art of Stone class I took this week. Surprisingly, her work has shown up in two other people's posts this week. I guess when people think about framing, stone arches come to mind)
Another Thea Alvin arch - this one frames the round doorway in the wall behind it well, though I would have preferred it if the pickup wasn't parked there at the time.
(A photo of this exact same arch was posted by another student.)
This is stretching the concept of "framing" a bit, but I liked how the
roof line of this yurt (up at Knoll Farm in Waitsfield) contrasted with
the rolling hills in the background.
One final stone arch shot, since that's been the theme of my week. Here are Thea's two dogs through a stone circle.





The photo of your son is a great shot! I also think it's cool how you went to the same place as a mother student. Shows some diversity in the shoots but with the same frame. These are great photos. I love the roof shot!
ReplyDeleteI like those man made arches, they make for great framing pictures. You automatically focus your eyes to whats inside that "frame". It looks like you got some real good scenic views too!
ReplyDeleteExcellent choices! Large-scale sculptures and other man-made objects that are intended for humans to pass through and around, lend themselves to excellent framing photography choices. Not only have you nailed the framing, but the lighting/exposure, composition, and color all work really well here.
