Today we are combining the Framing and Fill the Frame Challenges.
FramingFraming is a technique used to enhance the overall result of a photo and to draw attention to the subject. Framing does not refer to physical frames you put your photos into. Compositional framing consists of using natural or man-made objects within the photo itself.
There are endless choices when deciding on what to use as a frame, all you need is a little imagination and observation. When possible, a frame should correlate with the point of interest. For example, finding a gnarled piece of driftwood thats been washed to shore would make an excellent natural frame for a body of water, trees framing a boat in the distance or a single leaf in the forest.
To help getting your creativity flowing, consider the following elements to be used as frames: windows, doorways, tunnels, trees, branches and fences. There are no limits as to what you can do with framing.
Fill the frameThe frame is the edges of the photograph you take. The expression "fill the frame" does not mean that your photograph should be packed with visual information. It means that your primary subject should be large enough in the photo to stand out from the surroundings. It also means that you should isolate the primary subject of the photo, so that there is not a lot of other visual information competing for attention.
A common problem here is that we often think we're filling the frame when in fact we're not even close. What's happening is that when you're standing in front of a scene, you're concentrating so intently on your subject that your brain is tricked into thinking your subject is closer than it actually is.
The solution is as soon as you think you're close enough to your subject, take a few steps forward and then again. By filling the frame you add instant impact to the image. You exclude any unnecessary clutter and bring a dynamic element to the photo.
Happy Snapping! :thumbup:

Aleone, I think there's a possible mix-up here. Today -- 16 October, is Day 290 -- and the calendar says " Flash lights".
23 October, Day 297 (the one directly beneath Day 290), is slated for "Fill the frame".
Please advise. Thanks,
