- Framing, in photography, means placing an additional object, or objects, in the foreground of the picture for aesthetic purposes. The object does not have to completely surround the main subject.
- A foreground object provides a point of reference.
- It gives a sense of distance and comparative size.
- It can hide elements which detract from the main subject.
- It is aesthetically pleasing, and gives a feeling of completeness to the picture.
- “A tree, a doorway, a window, or even a gap in a fence positioned around the subject can create a frame within the picture’s frame.” (Joy of Photography)
